Friend,
I was a senator for 28 years and Secretary of State for four more years. Let me share with you what those years taught me beyond any shred of doubt: Even when we take back the White House, unless we win back the Senate, I promise you that Mitch McConnell will control everything from health care to the future of the Supreme Court.
And we can't win Senate control without Jeanne Shaheen. That’s not rhetoric, that’s math.
Republicans know this seat is critical to protecting their Senate majority, and they have targeted my friend Jeanne as one of their only pick-up opportunities. That's why Donald Trump just gave Jeanne Shaheen's right-wing opponent his full endorsement – and why GOP thugs like Corey Lewandowski are making serious investments to flip this seat red. I know New Hampshire – you helped me turn it blue in 2004 after it had been a Bush state in 2000. You take nothing for granted.
Jeanne won't be able to stand up to the full firepower of the GOP without our help. That's why I promised her we'd raise $20,000 by midnight tonight – and I'm counting on grassroots supporters like you to join me by giving now:
We cannot afford one more day of Mitch McConnell's Senate majority. They’re letting climate change spin out of control and turning a blind eye as foreign governments interfere in our elections.
From my days working with Jeanne on the Foreign Relations Committee, I can tell you that we absolutely need her voice in the fight. Jeanne has always fought for our shared values – no matter what obstacles may stand in her way, including being the only woman from either party to serve on the committee.
But if Jeanne Shaheen loses in New Hampshire, Democrats lose our chance to take back the Senate – and we simply cannot let that happen. Right now, we need to help raise $20,000 before midnight – and with just hours left to close the gap, I'm asking you for your contribution:
Thanks for your help,
John Kerry
