- The Washington Post, 5/15/24
With a Democratic retirement in West Virginia, Democrats have zero room for error if we’re going to hold the Senate, team.
I’ll be on the ballot in November, and we’re currently defending eight seats in battleground states. The billionaires and big corporations that fund the Republican Party are spending big in these tough races.
Losing just one Senate seat in November could mean a national abortion ban and the rollback of climate legislation. Democrats won’t have the power to hold the fossil fuel industry accountable for the damage they’ve done. And my Supreme Court ethics bill? There’s just about no chance a Republican-controlled Senate would let that through the chamber. Not to mention Republican threats to Social Security and Medicare, to allow more tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy.
That’s why I’m reaching out today to ask: Can you donate to my re-election campaign to send me back to the Senate and support my work to elect Democrats across the country?
Thank you,
Sheldon Whitehouse
