Friend,

In just a few days, we’ll hit our New Year’s Eve end-of-year fundraising deadline, the final public report before the 2026 election cycle begins in full force.

No race in the country will shape the future of the U.S. Senate more than Michigan’s open seat.

For the first time in years, Michigan won’t have an incumbent running for this seat. That means Republicans think they have a rare opportunity to take this seat, and they’re already pouring dark-money into our state, hoping to flip a seat they haven’t been able to win in more than three decades .

Last week, Senate Republicans voted to kill ACA premium tax credits, setting up health care costs to double for millions of Americans, including hundreds of thousands of Michiganders.

That vote will define the 2026 Senate map and is exactly why this end-of-year fundraising deadline is so critical.

If we’re going to keep this seat blue and help Democrats flip the Senate, we need to show the country that Michigan Democrats are organized, strong, and ready to fight starting right now.

Grassroots support is how we do that. Your donation today builds the infrastructure we need to win in November, from hiring organizers in every county to funding voter turnout programs, and digital outreach to community partnerships. Every dollar we raise today fuels the groundwork that Republicans hope we won’t have the resources to launch.

Friend, will you chip in before our critical end-of-year fundraising deadline to help us protect Michigan’s open U.S. Senate seat and put an end to Trump's dangerous agenda? [[link removed]]

If we hold Michigan, Democrats have a fighting chance to win back the U.S. Senate.

That’s what this moment comes down to.

Thank you for being part of this work. Not just today, but all year long. We’re grateful to have you with us.

Onward,

Curtis Hertel
Chair, Michigan Democratic Party
