John — this week has been incredible.
On Tuesday, I went back to my hometown of Jefferson City to officially put my name on the ballot for Missouri’s U.S. Senate seat. More than a hundred supporters from across the state came out to help us kick off our campaign that night, and I was honored to have each and every one of them standing with me.
We spent the whole week holding Hawley’s feet to the fire on issues impacting so many Missourians — first on his connections to the Alabama IVF ruling last week, his subsequent lies about supporting IVF and refusal to support efforts to protect it in our state, then about his support for Rick Scott as GOP Senate leader, who’s an active threat to Social Security and Medicare as we know it.
These are exactly the types of winning messages we’ll need to keep getting in front of Missouri voters every day between now and November 5.
And finally, last night we faced our February end-of-month fundraising deadline. This was a short month, even with the extra day, and our flash goal of raising 1,500 individual donations in just 48 hours was aggressive. But I’m happy to report that we didn’t just hit it — we absolutely crushed it, raising well over 2,000 contributions with an average donation of just $25.90.
I’m so proud of everything we’ve accomplished together, John. Your support — whether you made a donation, shared one of our ads, or even just opened one of our emails — has helped us build the foundation for a powerful grassroots movement, one that can defeat Josh Hawley and take this Senate seat back for working people.
All of this is to say: thank you. I’m so humbled by the trust and support real people like you have put into our campaign from day one.
It’s going to take all of us, working together, to bring home a win in November — and I know this grassroots team has what it takes to make it happen.
Thank you again, for everything, John.
Now, let’s get back to work,
