Have I ever told you about my grandparents,
John?

Here’s a photo of them, Arnfred and Christine, on their wedding day in
1905. That was seven years before they picked out a flat piece of
grassland just outside Big Sandy to build their homestead.

That patch of loamy, alkaline clay-soil is the same one where I grew up;
and where Sharla and I raised our kids and still farm the land.

Things weren’t easy for Fred and Christine. They suffered devastating
windstorms, bitter cold, shooting fire, poisonous snakes—pretty much
everything but locusts. And in the late teens, the drought hit, wiping out
the farm entirely. My grandparents were forced to leave.

But they were determined to return to their homestead. They saved up
enough to start all over again on the same little piece of land. They had
a couple hundred acres to their name, a newly-built barn, a windmill,
their healthy son and daughters (including newborn Helen, my mom), strong
muscles, and the powerful work ethic that built rural America.

I first ran for office to make sure our government was serving hardworking
Americans like my grandparents a hundred years ago. Folks like our
teachers, farmers, and construction workers deserve a government that
works for them.

But too many Washington politicians are deep in the pockets of right-wing
special interests. They promise one thing when the camera is rolling, then
make secret backroom deals with their wealthy megadonors.

That’s not how I operate, and it’s why we’re running this campaign
differently. I’m counting on grassroots folks like you chipping in what
you can, when you can, to build a team strong enough to take on the
outside groups and attacks.
