The stakes couldn’t be higher in Maryland right now, John.
FIRST: Recent polls showed that I’m locked in a razor-tight race with my opponent, Angela Alsobrooks.
THEN: Outside groups began funneling millions of dollars into Maryland to crush our momentum. A super PAC associated with Chuck Schumer is even spending more than $3,000,000 on a new ad blitz!
NOW: My debate with Angela Alsobrooks is TOMORROW, October 10 at 7:00 pm, and our campaign set an ambitious goal of rallying more than 1,000 grassroots supporters before I take the stage.
If we hit this goal, we will send a resounding message to everyone watching this key race unfold that we’ve created a powerful movement for the future of Maryland and America–one that can shock the entire country on Election Day!
But if we fall short, it will be a monumental task to continue fighting back against the onslaught of outside spending and partisan political attacks from my opponent. We will be at a severe disadvantage while Angela Alsobrooks continues to ramp up her own campaign operations for the final weeks of this race.Can I count on you to step up with a donation of any amount?
If you are like me and completely fed up with the divisiveness and dysfunction in Washington, I need your immediate help, John.
With you standing alongside us, we can finally fix the mess in Washington and end the toxic partisan politics that is holding us all back from real progress on the most important issues.
When I launched my campaign for the U.S. Senate, I did so with a deep resolve to maintain the leadership style and principles that guided me during my eight years as governor.
Fifty years ago, my father, Maryland Congressman Larry Hogan Sr. made a tough decision. He became the first Republican to come out for the impeachment of President Nixon. He put aside party politics and his own personal considerations and stepped up to do the right thing for Maryland and the nation.
Today, Washington is completely broken because that kind of leadership and willingness to put country over party has become far too rare. But it’s not in my nature to sit back and watch the dysfunction continue without doing what I can to roll up my sleeves and get to work.
I’m under no illusion this will be an easy road. But I’m no stranger to uphill battles, and I know I can’t do it without your support.
I don't aspire to be a United States senator. I don’t need a title and I don’t need a job, but I’m more concerned than ever about the direction of the country and I have become more convinced that I can make a difference by taking the approach and style of leadership I had during my eight years as governor to Washington.
It’s no surprise this mindset has made me a target of the Washington partisans. Despite early polls showing a lead, I know I’m the underdog in this race. And that’s why your support TODAY is so crucial.
For eight years, we proved that the toxic politics that divide our nation didn’t need to divide our state, and we got results! Let’s get back to work again and send a message to Washington that will be heard loud and clear across the country!
