Here's the thing, friend: We're two days out from our upcoming mid-month deadline.

So with MAGA Republicans spending hundreds of millions to retake control of the Senate, is there anything I can say that might convince you to make your first donation of $5 or more before midnight on Sunday to help close my fundraising gap?

What if I told you that election experts at Politico said that Democrats are facing a "Senate map from hell" this November?

Or that MAGA Republicans only need one or two more seats to yank the Senate majority out from under us?

What if I told you a new GOP Senate majority would gut Social Security and Medicare, give tax breaks to billionaires and make the middle-class pay for it, and ban abortion?

What if I told you that Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are counting on us to deliver them a strong blue Senate majority so they can pass meaningful legislation when they win?

It's the honest truth, friend – but with time running out on my mid-month deadline, I'm on track to fall short of my $200,000 goal.

I'm fighting with all I've got to save reproductive freedom and put our agenda of progress into action, but my ability to win this fight hinges on your grassroots support. Will you please rush $5 or more to help me reach my crucial fundraising goal before my mid-month deadline and save our razor-thin majority in November?

Thank you so much for standing alongside me.
