John, if there's one thing that you should know about my friend Kirsten Gillibrand, it's that she never — never — backs down from a fight.

But next year, Kirsten is facing an incredibly tough fight at the ballot box. Democrats are defending a massive 23 seats, meaning our grassroots resources will be spread incredibly thin. And last year, New York saw the biggest red waves across the country. Now, those same extremists are working overtime to defeat Kirsten and retake control of the Senate. 

There's no way Kirsten backs down from this fight. But I also know exactly what it's going to take to win this election and defend our razor-thin Senate majority: Early, strong grassroots investments from people like you. That's why I'm personally asking — can you make a donation before midnight tonight to help my friend Kirsten defend her must-win seat and protect our Senate majority? Trust me, this is the only way that Kirsten will win.

In everything that she does — every fight that she takes on, every piece of legislation that she supports, and every constituent that she advocates for — Kirsten is absolutely relentless. That's what makes her such an incredible advocate for Americans around the country (and one of the most powerful allies that you can have here in the Senate).

Now, more than ever, New Yorkers, Democrats, and all Americans need Kirsten's bold voice in Congress. Because today, our most fundamental rights are under unprecedented attack from extremist Republicans. We're in a national emergency for our democracy and all of the values we hold dear. 

Kirsten and I are fighting every day to safeguard these rights. We're working to pass voting rights legislation that will ensure every single American has equal, unrestricted access to the ballot box. And we're rallying support to certify the Equal Rights Amendment, which would give us a legal basis to restore reproductive rights nationwide.

But to continue these fights, and save our Senate majority, Kirsten needs your help: The only way to defeat the GOP's megadonors is with early, strong grassroots support from folks like you. So please, John, if you have anything to spare today, will you rush a donation now to help Kirsten protect her seat so that we can continue to fight for your family in the Senate?

Thank you for all that you do,

Sen. Raphael Warnock
