Hey there,

It’s Elissa Slotkin. I want to tell you why I’m so proud to serve alongside Gary in Congress.

But first, let me remind you of the stakes Gary and I are both facing this year: Michigan is the rare battleground state to feature both a Senate race and competitive House races like mine. That means when you contribute to our campaigns, you’re helping Democrats win in Michigan up and down the ballot.

Can you pitch in $5 or more today to help Gary and me win these crucial races in November?

I’m a proud supporter of Gary because he and I both fight for the issues that matter most to Michigan’s working families -- lowering the cost of prescription drugs, protecting our lakes and streams and boosting Michigan’s middle class.

But there’s also who Gary is as a friend.

Back in 2018, I was part of a wave of Democratic women who flipped Republican-held seats. My district voted for Donald Trump and was represented by a Republican in Congress for nearly two decades -- but I fought hard and won by 13,000 votes.

When I was first thinking about running for office, I met Gary for the first time. Back in those early days, no one thought I could flip this seat. But Gary and his amazing wife Colleen jumped into action. Colleen co-hosted one of my “friend-raisers,” and Gary showed up as a special guest to our office opening. They were there for me and believed in the dynamism and passion of the Michiganders in our district. I will not soon forget that. Fast forward to today, and Gary and I are both on the ballot in what is arguably the most important election of our lives.

It’s why I’m asking for your help today, friend. Gary and I are both on the ballot in what is arguably the most important election of our lifetimes. Donate $5 or more today to help ensure we can keep fighting for Michigan’s working families.

Winning in Michigan is key to sending Joe Biden to the White House, building a Senate majority and keeping the House. Gary and I can’t do this without you!
