The Koch network is wading into our race again — endorsing my opponent and promising to pour in even more money to help him. I’m reaching out today for your help, especially with our first FEC deadline of the year looming large.
The Koch network and allies are already putting together plans to attack Democrats across the country. Their whole strategy relies on running smear campaigns against anyone who refuses to work for them while dumping millions of dollars to prop up candidates like Thom Tillis who do.
I wish I could tell you this sort of strategy won’t work, but we've seen time and again their money can move the needle. That’s why the Koch network thinks they can buy this election out from under us — one giant check at a time.
While they're busy planning to flood the airwaves and drown out the voices of North Carolinians, we will double our efforts — because the truth is, we can't afford to just sit on our hands waiting for someone else to stop them. That's how elections are lost.
You can be sure that the Koch network and Mitch McConnell’s dark money groups will keep writing their big checks to try to save Tillis. But we can stop them — so long as each and every person chips in right now to make it happen.
Thanks for everything you do for our campaign. I am so grateful to have you on the team.
