[1]Lucas Kunce for U.S. Senate
John,
Our team recently reached out to ask what questions you have about me or
this campaign we’re building together. This week, I sat down to answer a
few:
What guarantee do your constituents have that you will be a Senator that
truly represents them and not lobbyists or just votes along party lines?
– Theresa, Clinton County
You probably won’t hear this from other politicians, but I know that how a
candidate chooses to fund their campaign has a real impact on who they
actually serve in office.
That’s why, since the first day we launched this campaign to take on Josh
Hawley, I’ve been committed to fundraising the right way — without a
single cent from corporate PACs, federal lobbyists, or Big Oil and Big
Pharma execs.
The only people I want to serve in the U.S. Senate are everyday
Missourians like the ones who took care of my family after we were
bankrupted by medical bills — not the shady corporate elites and
mega-donors who’ve made it their business to strip communities across our
state, like the one I grew up in, for parts.
In the Senate, I’ll fight for investment in Missouri, to rebuild our
forgotten communities, and to finally put everyday Missourians in charge
of their own bodies, families, and lives again. And I’ll work with anyone,
of any party, to get those things done. That’s my promise to you, and to
every Missourian, this year.
How will you support unions and/or fight against Right to Work for our
hard-working Missourians in union jobs?
– Krista, Cape Girardeau County
Labor built this country, and labor will build our future. I’m proud of
the truly worker-led coalition we’ve built to take back this Senate seat,
with endorsements from dozens of statewide and local unions in every
corner of Missouri.
The Missouri AFL-CIO and the Missouri Fire Fighters made their earliest
endorsements for a Senate challenger ever in our race because they know
there’s only one candidate who will actually fight for workers — and it’s
not Josh Hawley.
They know that I’ll pass the PRO Act, so that we can end the threat of
“Right to Work” scams across the country and empower workers in their
workplaces.
And beyond those protections, I want to build the next generation of
energy right here in America — creating generations of good jobs in
essential industries, strengthening our national security, and rebuilding
communities across our state and nation.
Do you support protecting social security and Medicare?
– Judith, St. Charles County
I’ll always protect every dollar people like you spend their lives working
to earn. And I’ll stand up against any and all attempts to “privatize” or
“sunset” Social Security — like Rick Scott, who Hawley wants to make his
leader in the U.S. Senate, has been threatening for years.
Social Security Works PAC was the first national organization to endorse
our campaign because they know I’ll fight to get you every dollar you’re
owed from these critical benefits, and that I won’t let anyone get in my
way. It’s that simple.
BONUS QUESTION: What is the most influential, simple, easy, cost effective
way for people to help you in your campaign?
– Tyler, Clay County
There are a few ways you can help.
Sign up to volunteer. Later this summer, we’ll have volunteer
opportunities available in-person and online for supporters like you to
get involved. Use the button below to sign up, and our team will reach out

Spread the word. Tell your friends and family about our campaign. Share
our message on your own social media, and spread the reach of our
movement. It’s going to be a real fight to take back this Senate seat, and
we’re going to need your help to do it every step of the way.
Make a donation. Like I mentioned before, I’m not taking a cent from
corporate PACs in this race. I’m counting on real people like you to fuel
this movement forward. It could be $3, $30, or $3,300 — every donation, no
matter the amount, gives our campaign the resources to communicate our
message to voters between now and November 5. And that’s exactly what
it’ll take to win this race.

John.
I hope you’re having a good weekend.
