I always knew Donald Trump would spend outrageous amounts of money to win Minnesota. But I never expected his campaign would already be pouring more than $6 million into our state — with no sign of stopping.

Just this morning, my team and I got word that the Trump campaign has begun placing seven-figure ad buys in Minnesota for the fall. That’s on top of the six-figure buys they have already made here. And I'm sure more will follow, especially as we get closer and closer to Election Day.

Make no mistake: This sort of spending could give our Republican opponent a boost in this race and help him ride Trump’s coattails to victory in Minnesota.

We're running out of time to make sure we're ready for the avalanche of money that's about to hit us through the airwaves.

We may be getting outspent by the Trump campaign, but we're not going anywhere without a fight — and you're going to determine what kind of competition they have.

I am going to stay focused on talking to the voters and doing my job in the Senate. But I need to know you have my back as these attacks continue to come our way.

Together, I know we can beat back the coming wave of outside spending because that's exactly what this grassroots team did in 2018. Can I count on you this time around, too?

Thanks for standing with me,
