John, the energy at the Chicago DNC is palpable in ways we haven’t seen in years.

It might be tempting to think that our momentum and rising poll numbers will continue indefinitely through November 5 and beyond.

But let’s not imagine that the rest of this campaign, thanks to Republican attacks, will be anything but nasty, brutish, and … short. Republicans will not give up easily.

Trump’s personally-aligned super PAC, MAGA Inc., just began running $100,000,000 of negative ads attacking Vice President Kamala Harris in a three-week battleground state blitz.

Trump’s super PAC ads are running non-stop in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, and Nevada — the states we need to win to defeat Trump.

And there’s more coming.

If we are going to close the $1.2 million fundraising gap my opponent opened up in our last FEC report, my team needs resources. With your support, I can help Democrats win up and down the ballot, defend the Senate, and help the Vice President beat Trump. Will you be one of 1,200 grassroots donors I need to take action before midnight? This is urgent.

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

EXPRESS DONATE $100 ANOTHER AMOUNT

These goals aren’t arbitrary. For Steve Garvey to have outraised us by $1.2 million in the last FEC quarter, he was outraising us by about $13,000 per day.

MAGA megadonors are opening their wallets for Trump and Garvey. They will do and spend whatever it takes to ensure their investments pay off with the extension of Trump’s trillion-dollar 2017 tax cuts to the wealthy and large corporations in the next administration.

I don’t take a dime of corporate PAC money. All of our work to defeat Trump and his Republican enablers — on the ballot on November 5 and in the United States Senate — depends on your support. That’s why my team needs you, John.

My team needs 1,200 grassroots donors to step up before midnight to close our fundraising gap and fully fund our campaign strategy for the next 11 weeks. Nothing less than control of Congress and the presidency hang in the balance. Can you give $5?

I’ll have more to say soon, but as this is the most important time you can lend your support for years to come, I just want to say — thank you.

— Adam
