John,

I grew up in a single room behind my parents' family–owned liquor store,
restaurant, and pool hall in Central, South Carolina.

I was the first in my family to attend college, and while I was in school, I
lost my mother and father within two years of one another. I quickly took on
the responsibility of helping raise my 13–year–old sister, Darline, and running
the family businesses.

I had to grow up fast, John, and I learned many life lessons at an early age.

After attending law school, I joined the U.S. Air Force as a member of the
Judge Advocate General Corps, where I served as a military prosecutor and
defense attorney.

Even after being elected to the United States Senate, I continued to wear the
uniform and served in the U.S. Air Force Reserves, where I performed several
short deployments in the war zones of Afghanistan and Iraq.

John, my story is similar to that of most Americans. I didn't grow up with a
silver spoon in my mouth with everything handed to me. I had to grow up fast
and work hard. I learned a lot of valuable lessons at a young age and took on a
whole lot of responsibility.

But one thing stuck with me over the years — the perspectives I gained from
listening to the hard–working South Carolinians who were regulars at my
family's pool hall or my brave colleagues in the military. Their perspectives,
whether I agreed with them or not, helped build my foundation for understanding
what Americans need.

It's no secret that our nation is sharply divided right now, but there are
some things we should all agree on.

We need a country that is a safe place to live and raise a family, and we need
a country where the American Dream is alive and possible for everyone, no
matter where they start from.

John, I'm fighting every day to make those two things a reality. Sadly, there
are people across the aisle in Washington who simply can't agree with us on
these issues. They are okay with open borders and the flow of violent crime
into our neighborhoods and onto our streets. They are okay with punishing
hard–working Americans with higher taxes, deepening the burden on them and
their families.

That's why I'm reaching out with a simple request: if you have a few dollars

Lindsey Graham
