I need your immediate attention. The Democratic National Committee just announced it’s pouring a quarter of a million dollars into Maryland to prop up my opponent.
As a Republican in Maryland, I'm already fighting an uphill battle. But with the DNC funneling a quarter of a million dollars into the state to prop up my opponent, the odds just got tougher.
Please, whatever you can give, it will make a difference. We're not just fighting to win this race; we're fighting to end politics as usual by bringing strong independent leadership to the Senate.
Maryland rarely gets this kind of national attention, and the Democrats are banking on us not being ready. But they're underestimating us. We've proven ourselves before, and we'll do it again.
When I launched my campaign for the U.S. Senate, I did so with a deep resolve to maintain the leadership style and principles that guided me during my eight years as governor.
Fifty years ago, my father, Maryland Congressman Larry Hogan Sr. made a tough decision. He became the first Republican to come out for the impeachment of President Nixon. He put aside party politics and his own personal considerations and stepped up to do the right thing for Maryland and the nation.
Today, Washington is completely broken because that kind of leadership and willingness to put country over party has become far too rare. But it’s not in my nature to sit back and watch the dysfunction continue without doing what I can to roll up my sleeves and get to work.
I’m under no illusion this will be an easy road. But I’m no stranger to uphill battles, and I know I can’t do it without your support.
I don't aspire to be a United States senator. I don’t need a title and I don’t need a job, but I’m more concerned than ever about the direction of the country and I have become more convinced that I can make a difference by taking the approach and style of leadership I had during my eight years as governor to Washington.
It’s no surprise this mindset has made me a target of the Washington partisans. Despite early polls showing a lead, I know I’m the underdog in this race. And that’s why your support TODAY is so crucial.
For eight years, we proved that the toxic politics that divide our nation didn’t need to divide our state, and we got results! Let’s get back to work again and send a message to Washington that will be heard loud and clear across the country!
