John --
With everything going on, we have watched with anguish as our country grieves for George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and so many others.
This was not a normal week in America. We wanted to make sure you saw Lucy's email from yesterday (copied below) addressing what's been happening.
Thanks for all of your support.

John -- this month of May actually felt like an entire year for me, and I'm sure it did for you too. A third month of quarantine is weighing on our entire country, and when the headlines weren't about COVID-19 and our re-election race, we saw the horrifying news about tragic killing after tragic killing.
My heart hurts for our country, and for all those like me who know the pain of losing a loved one. I'm grieving for the families of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor, and praying that justice is served. And even in the midst of all this -- the relentless political attacks by Republicans on our campaign have continued.
This month, President Trump singled out our race on Twitter, and my opponent Karen Handel continued to confidently proclaim she's "going to win" in 2020.
We have a big fundraising deadline at the end-of-the-month coming up on Sunday at midnight. If you can chip in a grassroots donation of any amount, I need your help now more than ever to make sure we hold on to this swing seat, win the 2020 election, and finally are able pass much needed gun safety reforms in Washington.
Here's the best link to chip in: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/LMGA-06-Email-May2020-FR-May
With love,
