John, I've run a lot of tough races in my life, but this race is certain to be my toughest yet.

CNN says I'm one of the most vulnerable Senators on the ballot. Politico says Ohio could decide Senate control. A Trump-allied dark money group is already running attack ads against me. And now, my wealthy GOP opponents are holding huge fundraisers and writing their campaigns multimillion dollar checks to try and buy this seat.

Without critical grassroots support from folks like you, I simply cannot fight back and compete. That's why I've set an ambitious $50,000 daily fundraising goal and have to ask you to split $3 or more right now between my campaign and Maggie Hassan's to help me get there. Please, will you donate now?

John, I'm fighting every day in the Senate for the Dignity of Work – all work. Whether you punch a clock or swipe a badge, earn a salary or work for tips, are raising children or caring for an aging parent, I'm fighting for you.

Meanwhile, my millionaire GOP opponents have spent their lives profiting off of a system that too often puts the bottom line over the actual needs of workers and their families. That's not what Ohioans, or Americans, deserve.

I know we can defend this seat and keep making meaningful progress together – so please, John: Will you split a donation between my campaign and Maggie Hassan's before the crucial end-of-month deadline? Every dollar goes a long way toward winning in Ohio and keeping the Senate blue.

I can't thank you enough for your support.

Sherrod
