Friend,

I'll be blunt: We need all hands on deck to take back the Senate in 2020.

And today, we need to step up in Virginia, where Senator Mark Warner needs our help. He just had a Republican opponent -- Scott Taylor -- enter the race. If the GOP takes this seat, all of the progress we've been fighting for will be lost.

This race could be razor close, so let's throw our strength behind Mark right now.

Can you chip in $10 or more right now to Mark's campaign? Your donation will help power Mark to victory and prove our strength as Democrats as we head into 2020.

I am proud to call Mark a colleague and friend in the Senate. Since he was first elected, Mark has fought hard to forge an economy that works for everyone, protect our national elections from foreign interference, and win the fight for affordable healthcare.

His Republican opponent would join the ranks of Speaker McConnell's rubber stamps in the Senate, with a voting record that would make Trump proud (he's voted with him 98% of the time!) And -- if you needed more evidence that this guy's no good -- Taylor's been backed by the Koch brothers and their deep, dark-money-filled pockets.

Look, Mark has won in tight elections before: In 2014, he won his seat by less than 1%. Democrats have shown time and again that grassroots power can WIN against the GOP's dark-money machine -- but we'll only power Mark to victory and take back the Senate if we all play our part.

That's why I'm asking for your help today. Your contribution of $10 or more will help Mark win in Virginia, and keep an important check on the Trump administration and the Senate GOP.

Together, we can win back the Senate and keep Mark fighting for the people of Virginia -- and all of us.

Thanks for being a part of this fight.

Sincerely,

Chuck Schumer
