I’m in a tough spot, John, and my friend, Jacky Rosen, encouraged me to reach out to you for help. So here are the three big things you need to know about my toss-up Senate race in Ohio:

1. My MAGA opponent is a self-funding millionaire who is trying to buy this Senate seat – along with the Senate majority. On top of that, he’s a close ally of Donald Trump and JD Vance, so there’s no question he’ll be a rubber stamp on the MAGA agenda.

2. The latest polls show this race locked in a dead heat – and national Republicans are officially outspending us on the airwaves to pummel me with attacks in this pivotal final stretch.

3. Now, at the worst possible moment, we’re falling behind on our fundraising ahead of the mid-month deadline. If we don’t reach our $100,000 rapid-response goal by midnight tonight, I’m worried we won’t have the resources to mount a comeback before Election Day.

I can’t write myself million-dollar checks like my opponent can, so I’m counting on you to rush $5, $25, or however much you can spare today. Every dollar will be split between my campaign and Jacky Rosen’s campaign so we can win in Ohio and defend the Senate for Democrats.

Thank you,
