We wanted to make sure you saw the update from Chris about Senate Republicans’ backing out of the deal they demanded for Ukraine funding. We need to make sure they pay the price. Please pitch in today to help us defeat them at the ballot box and hold the Senate majority.


I’m fuming.

For the past four months, I worked tirelessly to cut a deal with Republicans that would allow us to pass funding for Ukraine and prevent Russia from turning Kyiv into a Russian city.

Despite the bipartisan support for Ukraine, Republicans told us in October that they would only agree to support Ukraine if we paired it with policy changes for the border.

So I stepped forward to negotiate with Republicans to work on a bipartisan deal. I came into these negotiations skeptical but sincere. And against the odds, we made an agreement.

It wasn’t easy. We met every day for months — every single day except for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
But this week, not even 24 hours after the deal was announced, Republicans killed the bill that their own leadership negotiated. Before the ink was even dry, they were tweeting their opposition — all because Donald Trump demanded it.

This is unbelievable. People elected us to solve problems.

But Donald Trump and Republicans have made it clear that they want the chaos at the border. They don’t want to fix the border. They think it’s good politics for them in November to use a broken border as a perpetual political cudgel.

Honestly, it’s embarrassing for Republicans. They have proven they cannot be trusted to be in charge, so we must secure a majority that believes in functional government.

Let me be clear: I’m not giving up on Ukraine funding. This is a global imperative for our security and the future of every single democracy, and I refuse to let Republicans get away with what they did this week.

Every best wish,

Chris Murphy
