It's official, friend: John James, the hard-right extremist who has said he backs Trump "2,000%," just won the GOP primary for Michigan's Senate seat.

Here's why this is concerning: James has outraised our campaign five times in a row. Because of him, we were the ONLY Democratic senator outraised by a challenger last quarter. And he's got the support of Donald Trump, Betsy DeVos' family and Mitch McConnell - who have been funneling in millions of dollars to buy this seat.

With analysts at CBS News reporting that Michigan's Senate race will decide Senate control, we'll have zero chance of taking back the Senate if we lose this seat. And right now that's a real possibility: RealClearPolitics just moved our race from "Lean Dem" to "Toss Up," and a new poll shows this race is statistically TIED.

I've won tough elections before - but if we're going to win in Michigan and take back the Senate for Democrats, we CANNOT afford to let John James and his GOP billionaire allies continue to outraise us, especially as we enter the general election.

So my team set a rapid-response goal to raise $50,000 immediately to make up our fundraising gap, but right now, we're falling short of what we need to win.

There is too much at stake to sit on the sidelines: Can I count on you to contribute $3 or more now - every dollar you can spare - to win in Michigan, take back the Senate for Democrats and protect the future of the Supreme Court?

Thanks - I couldn't do it without you.
