Friend,

While I've been busy building bipartisan coalitions to tackle real challenges facing our country, Republicans have been busy working to unseat me.

Case in point: The same day my Paycheck Protection Program Flexibility Act won overwhelming bipartisan support to reach the president's desk, House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy endorsed my opponent. I don't have to tell you that too many Republican leaders and their dark-money backers care about nothing more than partisan games.

That's what we're up against this year -- and I don't take my reelection for granted.

Hundreds of grassroots supporters have chipped in since we started our mid-month fundraising drive, but we're still falling short. Will you contribute before midnight Saturday to help us reach our 500-donation goal?

If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately

We face challenges unlike any we've ever seen -- protecting public health during the pandemic, defending our democracy, achieving racial justice, and addressing the climate crisis, just to name a few.

I want to invite everyone to the table to solve these problems, but I can only do it if I win another term.

I can't win this without you. Will you make a donation before midnight Saturday to help me win again in November?

Thanks,

Dean
