Friend, the outcome of November's elections couldn’t be more important.

Right now, GOP extremists across the country are doing everything they can to force their oppressive policies onto the people they claim to serve – stripping away reproductive freedoms, undermining affordable health care, eroding our voting rights, and more.

Make no mistake, friend: If we lose our Senate majority, GOP extremists will wreak havoc on our democracy.

As chair of the DSCC, it's my job to make sure we beat the odds and defend our Senate majority. But I have to be honest with you: I've never seen a map this bad. Democrats are defending 23 seats – more than double the GOP. And so many of these seats are in tough battleground states, like Nevada, Montana, and Ohio.

That’s why I’m launching an urgent Democratic Membership drive so we can have a fighting chance of defending our Senate majority. I need 250 Democrats to activate their memberships before my midnight deadline – and I'm counting on you to be one of them. Please, will you chip in $5 or more now to activate your Democratic Membership and help save the Senate?

I know the election probably feels far away. But the truth is that this fight is already well underway – and the GOP could be about to gain the momentum advantage. They're already spending record-breaking amounts to attack vulnerable Democrats, and with the RNC around the corner, the GOP's dark-money donors are lining up to write even more massive checks to power their far-right candidates.

We'll only have enough resources to compete with GOP spending if grassroots supporters like you start chipping in right now. The stakes are simply too high for any of us to sit this one out, friend. That's why I'm personally asking: 

Will you chip in $5 right now to activate your Democratic Membership and help keep the Senate blue?

Thank you so much for supporting our Senate majority.
