Hi, friend, it's Ruben Gallego. This is urgent, so Catherine suggested I reach out to some of her most engaged supporters, including you.

I'll get right to it: I need your help before my end-of-month deadline to win in Arizona, keep Kari Lake out of the Senate and protect our Democratic majority. Will you please give just $5 or $25 now, split between my campaign and Catherine's, to help me win?

This race is officially one of the most expensive in the country – and it's one Democrats cannot afford to lose if we want to hold the Senate. But Donald Trump has personally attacked me and campaigned with my opponent, Kari Lake, and now, for the first time, a poll shows me trailing by a point.

We can still turn this around, but it's going to take all of us, friend, starting with raising every dollar we can before my end-of-month deadline. Failing to respond with a strong showing now could cost us our chance to defend the Senate and hand this seat to one of Trump's closest allies.

So, what do you say? Will you split a gift of $5 or more between my campaign and Catherine's to make sure I have the resources to retake the lead in the polls, defeat Kari Lake and help Democrats keep the Senate blue?

Thank you so much, from the bottom of my heart.

Ruben
