John, right now, I'm running a campaign in what is shaping up to be the most competitive and expensive in the entire country – and I'm falling short of my $25,000 daily fundraising goal. The road to victory may be tough, but make no mistake, I'm no stranger to a tough fight. I'm running to win.

I have an incredible opportunity to win in California and become just the third Black woman ever to be elected to the U.S. Senate – where I can be the vote we need to abolish the filibuster, pass legislation to expand voting rights, fight for reproductive rights, combat climate change and build a progressive future for all of us – but only if I have your help.

Recent polls show that a large majority of voters are still undecided, meaning that this incredibly competitive race is still anyone's to win. But here's the issue: I'm not only being outraised by the others in this race – Fox News and MAGA extremists are working hard to wipe away ALL of my momentum and smear my name.

That's why I'm counting on you to help me reach my daily fundraising goal before midnight so I can pull ahead, fight back and do what I came here to do: win!

So please, before midnight, will you donate $5 or more to help me win and build the progressive future we deserve in the Senate?

Thank you for supporting my campaign and helping me make history.
