Friends, I got a few free minutes here. No calls, no meetings. I know that doesn’t sound like much, but with a newborn at home, chaos in Congress, and a campaign to run… trust me, it’s a gift.

And I know we send a lot of emails already, but I wanted to take a few of those minutes to tell you about why I decided to run for Senate in the first place. You are critical to our success, and I feel like I owe that much to you.

The truth is, when I jumped in this race I had no idea how things were going to go. I didn’t know if this was going to be a two-way race, a three-way race, a thirty-way race. We had no clue what things would look like at this point.

But things have changed. This race is locked in now, and Kari Lake is my opponent — someone way more interested in burning our democracy down than building it up. Someone who doesn’t care about unity, or reaching across the aisle. She is in this for herself, and for Trump.

And if she wins, it will be an absolute nightmare for Arizona and the country. She’s dangerous. Really.

She’s also been raising a ton of money lately, and that’s extremely concerning. There’s a real chance that she takes this Senate seat. The polls are incredibly close, and the pundits all say this is one of the most likely states in the country to flip.

One of the biggest FEC deadlines of the entire campaign is right around the corner, and when it hits we’re going to be legally required to release our fundraising numbers.

If we’re going to defeat Kari Lake, hold on to the Senate, and defeat Donald Trump, I’m going to need a ton of support from people like you. We need to show a lot of our strength in this FEC report.

So, please:

Can you make a split $10 contribution between my campaign and Forward Majority today? The amount really isn’t as important as the number of donations we receive. It’s going to add up fast when a ton of people chip in together.

Thanks again for all your support.

Ruben
