Troops in our cities...
Masked federal agents snatching people off the streets...
Rising health care costs pushing people to the brink...

Friends, I know it can feel like our country — and even our democracy itself — is reaching a breaking point. I’m worried too.

But here is what I say to those looking for a way forward: setting things right and holding Trump and his administration accountable will require winning back control of Congress for Democrats in the midterms.

I’m working hard to support my colleagues in the Senate running for reelection, and, with your help we were able to pass Prop 50 here in California and strike a massive blow against the GOP’s attempts to rig the midterms.

But we’re not done yet. Far from it. Trump and his administration are not going to go quietly. They’re already attacking mail-in voting and trying to lay the groundwork to claim the midterms are rigged against them.

That is why it is important not only to win in the midterms, but to win BIG and leave zero doubt as to the will of the American people. Can you help make it happen by giving $5 today?

It doesn’t have to be a lot. Even a few dollars makes a big difference and just as importantly, lets me know you’re on our side for the work ahead.

If you can afford to make a contribution, I would be very grateful. If you’re not in a position to donate right now, I understand and am grateful for your support.

Thank you for staying in the fight.
