Friend – I just got some news you need to hear: The GOP is going all out to flood the Ohio airwaves with attack ads against me. More money is being spent on TV ads heading into the fall in our race than in any other Senate race in the country.

We're launching TV ads of our own to fight back, but unless we raise $75,000 by midnight, I'm worried we'll need to pull back at the worst possible time. So please, will you rush $5 right now to keep our ads on the air?

The reason I'm reaching out so urgently right now is because my MAGA opponent, Bernie Moreno, just launched a new ad attacking me.

I'll be frank with you, friend: We can't let him get away with this – not when our Democratic Senate majority hangs in the balance. There's too much at stake for us to risk being outspent and drowned out.

But keeping our ads live isn't cheap – and while my self-funding opponent can write his campaign million-dollar checks and accept money from shady super PACs, I'm running a true grassroots campaign that relies on donations from folks like you.

So please, friend, will you chip in $5 – or whatever you can spare – now to help me launch my ads to fight back against MAGA Republicans and keep the Senate blue?

Thank you for stepping up during this critical time,

Sherrod
