John, you deserve to hear from me directly about why this FEC deadline at the end of the month is so important.

You have been receiving a lot of emails from us lately, and there is a very good reason for that.

I don’t accept any contributions from corporate lobbyists or executives in Big Pharma or the fossil fuel industry like many of my colleagues across the aisle (who happen to author and support legislation that is very friendly to those entities).

I count on you for my support, because it’s for you that I’m authoring and supporting legislation to help make your life better, and our country work better for you.

These emails represent a very large share of our fundraising each quarter, and with the FEC deadline coming up at the end of next week, it’s the most important time of the election year for us to build our support.

I can’t wait until our next FEC deadline in September to plan my campaign travel or support for vulnerable colleagues. We’re making those plans right now, and your support before this deadline will have an immediate impact on how aggressive we can be.

So what do you say, John? Will you chip in $5 or any amount before my FEC deadline to help me defend the Senate and defeat Trump? My team and I will put your generous donation immediately to work where it will have the greatest impact.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

I do hope you find these emails to be informative and keep you up to date on what’s happening in the Senate and on the campaign trail — and hopefully with this one, you can see how important these public FEC reports we’re preparing to file will really be.

Not just in proving our strength to ourselves, but showing Trump, McConnell, and the rest of the GOP the fight they’ll have on their hands as we work to defend the progress we’ve strived so hard to make. Thank you.

With love and gratitude,

Cory
