I just got out of my weekly check-in with our finance team and I have some bad news to share with you:

We are only a handful of days into March, and not on pace to reach our very first (and arguably most important!) FEC deadline of the year.

I'm a little worried because our race is a top target for Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, and their billionaire buddies who will spend whatever it takes to defeat me.

If our campaign doesn't post the strongest numbers possible at the end of this quarter, then I'm afraid Republican mega-donors and right-wing groups will think Minnesota is ripe for the taking.

That's why it's so important we hit these goals every single week through Election Day. To compete with the kind of GOP cash we’re sure to see at any moment, we need a surge of grassroots contributions from folks like you. So, I'm asking:

Can I count on you to donate toward our weekly goal of raising $20,000 before midnight on Monday and helping us stay on track for our first FEC deadline of this critical election year? I wouldn't ask if it wasn't so important.

In order to take on our GOP opponent Jason Lewis and save Minnesota's Senate seat, we have to build an organization that can withstand the onslaught of attacks heading our way — and that starts with staying on top of our weekly benchmarks.

That's why your contribution matters so much today. Thanks for everything.

— Tina
