Me and my sisters when we were (much) younger

Team — 

When I think back to the most difficult experiences in my life, I’m thankful I’ve always had a strong support system to get me to the other side. 

Sleeping on the floor in our apartment growing up because we couldn’t afford a bed wasn’t easy. 

Working to make ends meet while I was trying to get into a good school wasn’t easy. 

Serving in Iraq in one of the hardest hit units of the entire war definitely wasn’t easy. 

And running for the U.S. Senate — having Kari Lake attack me day in, day out, while Trump helps her raise millions to smear my name… that hasn’t been easy either. 

But as a kid, I had my family. 

Getting into school and building a better life, I had a strong community supporting me. 

Getting through Iraq, I had my brothers watching my back. 

And in this campaign, I have you. 

Simply put… I couldn’t do this without your support. When you woke up this morning you probably didn’t think it’d be the day you made a donation to my campaign, but I really need you if we’re going to defeat Kari Lake and defend Arizona and control of the U.S. Senate. 

Friend, can you split an online donation to my campaign and the Arizona Democratic Party before our next major fundraising deadline? Polls are showing this race getting closer and closer. I need you with me.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through to the Arizona Democratic Party and Ruben Gallego immediately:

I know you hear this a lot, but seriously: Thank you for being a part of this team. It means so much to me. 

Ruben
