Ruben Gallego is getting absolutely pummeled in Arizona right now, John.

If you can spare $10 today to help him fight back against Kari Lake and Trump, please: Make a split donation with Fight for Progress right away.

If you need to hear more before you chip in, please — give us a chance to explain why your support in this critical moment is so important.

It all started when we got word that Kari Lake was going up with attack ads across Arizona.

Then we learned that the NRSC was working with her to build a huge $10 million advertising campaign aimed at tearing Ruben down with lies, smears, and misinformation.

Over the last few weeks more attacks have come in — including another $500,000 more in attack ads from a dark money group.

And then, Trump himself came to Arizona. He stood on a stage and attacked Ruben personally. It’s a signal to the entire MAGA-right that they need to funnel their attention and donations to this campaign because Trump knows he MUST win in Arizona if he has any chance at taking back the White House.

But this goes both ways.

If we want to hold the Senate and if we want to stop Trump from becoming president we have to stay focused on Arizona. We have to defeat Kari Lake, Trump’s most loyal footsoldier. We have to stand up to the relentless onslaught that the MAGA-right and Trump are sending Ruben’s way.

The only way we’ll have a chance is with your support. So, with an official FEC fundraising deadline approaching fast, we’ve got to ask you:

Can you make that split donation of $10 between Fight for Progress and our campaign to help Ruben fight back against the millions of attack ads coming his way? We would not be asking if this were not so important.

Thank you so, so much.

Team Gallego
