Hi,

I’m MJ Hegar. I’m a combat veteran, a working mom, and a Texas-tough Democrat running for U.S. Senate. I’m reaching out because we’re going to win Texas, but I need your help to do it.

Everyone from NPR to the polling experts at Quinnipiac are calling Texas a battleground state and a “toss-up,” and a recent poll shows this race within two points! It’s not a matter of if Democrats win it, it’s a matter of when -- and if we flip Texas, you can bet we’ll flip the Senate, too. With your help, we can do it this November. →

My opponent Senator John Cornyn has spent the last 18 years in Washington cozying up to special interests instead of serving Texans. Now polls are showing shockingly low approval ratings: as low as 29% in one poll, and ten points below Ted Cruz in another!

I just won our runoff election, so now it’s time to build on our momentum and close that gap! More than one-third of Texans are still undecided in this election, and we’re in a race against Sen. Cornyn to reach them.

I’m a combat veteran with a record of service to our country, and I’ve faced the struggles so many Texans do, from wondering how I’ll keep my family’s health care to overcoming gun violence. That’s why when folks hear our message, they get on board.

But Texas is a huge state, and getting the message out will take a lot of resources. Pitch in to help us reach every undecided voter we can, win Texas, and flip the Senate!

Beating Sen. Cornyn this year is critical. He’s spent years as the #2 ranking Republican in the Senate, Mitch McConnell’s top henchman in obstructing progress. Politico even called John “Repeal’s Top Salesman” for his efforts to gut the Affordable Care Act.

Lately, he’s been working overtime to undermine the response to the COVID-19 pandemic. While he’s been making jokes on Twitter and spreading misinformation, Texas has become a hotspot of skyrocketing cases, leaving thousands of his constituents dead and many more sick.

Sen. Cornyn is not fit to serve Texas, and it’s time for him to go. Pitch in to help me defeat him.

Together, we can win this Senate seat and send someone to the Senate who will actually fight for Texans, not the DC bosses or special interests.

Thanks, y’all.
