Hey friend, I wanted to make sure you saw the recent news: Our race in Ohio is now the only toss-up in the battle for Senate control according to Crystal Ball.

Here's what that means: We have to win. If we lose this race, we lose the Senate – and Republicans are pulling out all the stops to make that happen.

• GOP megadonors are outspending us on TV, boosting my opponent and airing nasty attack ads against me.
• JD Vance is personally campaigning in Ohio to flip this seat.
• Polls show me losing ground to my MAGA opponent, Bernie Moreno.

That's why I'm asking for your help today, friend. We have a can't-miss $2.5 million end-of-month fundraising goal. Unlike my opponent, I don't have shady megadonors funding my campaign, so I have to ask:

Will you please rush $5 right now – anything you can spare before the end-of-month deadline – to split between my campaign and Letitia James to help us fight back against the GOP's attacks, win this race, and keep the Senate blue?

If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your split donation between Letitia James and Sherrod Brown will go through immediately:

I couldn't be more grateful for your support, friend.
