Really big news, everyone:
Democrat Amy McGrath just announced her campaign to replace Mitch McConnell in the United States Senate.
Amy’s story isn’t surprising. At 13, she wrote McConnell a letter telling him that she wanted to fly in combat and fight for her country, even though the law said she couldn’t just because she was a girl.
McConnell never responded. And now, it’s clear that Amy isn’t the only Kentuckian he’s ignored.
Mitch McConnell is the most unpopular Senator in the entire country and with your help, Amy can defeat him. Can she count on you to give $3 or whatever you can to her campaign right now and become one of her founding donors? Any amount makes a difference.
If you’ve saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will automatically be split between Amy McGrath and Maggie Hassan.
The ban on women in combat roles was lifted when Amy was a high school senior, and she was accepted into the United States Naval Academy and went on to spend 20 years as a U.S. Marine.
The contrast is clear: Amy has dedicated her life to service while McConnell is dedicated to partisan obstructionism and advancing Donald Trump’s agenda.
Taking on a career politician and darling of the Republican party won’t be easy — Amy needs all of our help. That’s why we’re asking you directly:
Thank you so much for getting involved — this race is a big one.
Team Maggie
