In a moment, I’ll ask you to [ [link removed] ]join me in supporting Lucas Kunce in the
critical U.S. Senate race happening in my home state against Josh Hawley
this year. But first, I think we need to talk about family values.

[ [link removed] ]CHIP IN NOW

I learned what family values meant while growing up in Missouri, the most
beautiful state in the union.

I also learned what that didn’t mean.

[ [link removed] ]Three headlines from various outlets: 1. Hawley was an early no-fault
divorce skeptic. 2. I would support any restriction on abortion (quote
from Hawley). 3. Hawley says he supports IVF access despite voting no on
the Senate bill.

Family values didn’t mean cruelty. It didn’t mean fake patriotism. It
didn’t mean telling people how to live, or family profits. It didn’t mean
making life harder for hardworking people. And it sure as hell didn’t mean
robbing people of their rights or tax dollars.

None of that is family values… that’s something else.

[ [link removed] ]CHIP IN TO BEAT HAWLEY

Growing up in working class neighborhoods in Missouri, Lucas and I both
learned what it meant for a family to live paycheck to paycheck.

We also learned the real meaning of family values — but not from rich
politicians and self-help authors like Josh Hawley.

insurrectionists outside the Capitol on January 6, 2021, with an insert of
him fleeing out of the building. On the right, a photo of Hawley's
'Manhood' book.

We’re the Show Me State. People showed us.

[ [link removed] ]CHIP IN TO SUPPORT LUCAS

People like the neighbors and church friends that helped Lucas’ family get
by when his parents were bankrupted by medical bills. People like the
Scout master, track coach, and public school teachers who mentored and
supported Lucas growing up. People like the veterans at Lucas’ local
Marine Corps league in mid-Missouri, who taught him that he could honor
and protect everyone who took care of him by serving like they did.

Lucas and I both learned that family values are really about people taking
care of each other and doing the right thing. Through good times, and
tough times.

All that other noise from the politicians…

[ [link removed] ]A headline that reads: Josh Hawley embraces Christian Nationalism.
Faith leaders disagree.

That’s something else.

In Missouri this November, there’s a real choice in the Senate race. Josh
Hawley only won his last race with 51% of the vote — and that was before
he helped overturn Roe, enacted a total abortion ban, voted against IVF
and birth control, stalled healthcare for veterans, and cost taxpayers
$250,000 by breaking transparency laws to help his own campaign.

Lucas Kunce is the Marine veteran who can beat him. It won’t be easy, but
it will be worth it.

So I’m asking: [ [link removed] ]Will you join me in supporting Lucas Kunce in
Missouri’s U.S. Senate race by making a donation of any amount today?
Lucas is committed to building his campaign the right way, without a
dollar from corporate PACs or federal lobbyists, so anything you can give
really will make a big impact.
