John, I just made a bit of a risky decision:

This morning, I authorized our new TV ads to launch a week early, even though the money wasn’t in our budget. My finance director wasn’t exactly thrilled with the idea at first, but she came around once I explained why. Let me fill you in:

I'm officially the most vulnerable woman in the Senate, and dark money groups like the Koch network are pouring millions into Nevada to flip my seat red.

Right now, it’s critical we get our ads live ASAP – because having these ads up and running is the best way to counter the GOP's attacks.

But now, we’re facing a $500,000 budget gap that we have to make up to get these new ads live. We absolutely can’t afford to fall further behind right now, but I told my finance director that I trust top supporters like you to have my back.

So please, can you chip in $5 or whatever you can spare right now to help us get these new ads on the air and reach voters?

Thank you so much for your crucial support,

Jacky
