Hi, John! I hope you'll read this message from my friend, U.S. Senate candidate from Texas, Colin Allred. -- Amy Klobuchar

John, nothing prepared me for the hollow feeling I woke up with on Nov. 9, 2016 – the day after Donald Trump was elected.

At the time, I was working in President Obama's administration, and I couldn't believe our country had made so much progress, only to elect someone who wanted to take us backward.

I couldn't help but question if I could have done more – if we all could have done more to stop Donald Trump from becoming president.

I didn't know it that day, but Trump's election would be one of the reasons I decided to run for Congress.

I couldn't stand what was happening, and I had to do whatever I could to change it. Turns out, a lot of people felt the same way I did – and that's how we defeated a 22-year GOP incumbent, elected me as TX-32’s first ever Democratic congressman, and won back the House for Democrats in 2018.

My motivation remains the same in this race. I know Texans are ready for change.

With two months until Election Day, this race is going to come down to a handful of votes. I've got to hit my $150,000 daily fundraising goal just to keep up.

I know I don't want to wake up the day after Election Day on Nov. 6 wishing we had done more, John. That's why I have to ask: Before midnight tonight, will you split a donation of $5, $10, or any amount you can spare between my campaign and Amy Klobuchar? Every dollar brings us that much closer to bringing real leadership to Texas. →

No regrets,

Colin Allred
