Friend,

You probably didn’t wake up this morning and think, “Today's the day I’m going to make a $10 donation to DMP's campaign!” — but ahead of my critical end-of-month deadline, it's what I’m about to ask you to do.

Unlike Rick Scott, I don't have a massive fortune at my campaign's disposal. I come from a working-class family, so I know my eye-watering $10 million end-of-month goal is nothing to shake a stick at. But it's the only way I'll be able to defeat him.

If that's all you need to hear, please click here to chip in $10 now — but I'd like to share what your hard-earned $10 means to me.

See, my family moved to the US from Ecuador with big dreams for a better life when I was 14. But it didn't come easy, and despite my mom working back-to-back double shifts, we still struggled to afford rent on our one room apartment. 

So once I turned 15, I began taking early morning shifts at a doughnut shop before school. It wasn't much, but the extra cash gave my family room to breathe, and eventually, the life we dreamt of finally came true.

But I'm not the only one who got their start in the doughnut business. When he was a young man, my opponent, Rick Scott, bought two doughnut shops.

While I made minimum wage to help keep the lights on at home, he reaped the benefits of his employees' hard work.

For me, those $10 boxes of doughnuts were a lifeline that helped my family get by. For him, they kicked off a career in penthouse C-suites.

And with your $10, you can help me kick Rick out of the Senate on election night — so please, pitch in now.

I went on to graduate college, fight to improve life for working families like my own, and become the first South American immigrant elected to Congress. Rick Scott went on to enrich himself off U.S. taxpayers via the largest Medicare fraud scheme in history, amass a nine-figure fortune, and buy his way into the Senate.

So I don't take your help toward reaching my $10 million end-of-month goal lightly. There's simply no way I could ever do it on my own.

My opponent, however, can spend $10 million to get his ads on screens without thinking twice — and he has already spent plenty more to stop me.

So the only way we'll get him out and give working Floridians the Senate representation we deserve is if we hit my $10 million goal. Please, friend: Will you give just $10 — about the cost of a dozen doughnuts — to help me retire Rick Scott?

This campaign is powered by small-dollar donations, so every cent makes a big difference.

Thank you for everything,

Debbie
