Last night, it became official: I'm the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Ohio.
I'm grateful. Truly.
Will you help me mark this moment by splitting $7 between my campaign and the DSCC to help us start the general election push strong and keep building our grassroots momentum?
I came off the sidelines for one reason: Ohio families.
Life is too expensive. Paychecks are too low. Costs are too high – utilities, health care, groceries, everything.
Ohioans see more money going out the door, and not enough money coming in.
And it's because the system is rigged. Too many Ohioans are getting the short end of the stick while people in power are doing favors for billionaires and corporate special interests. You are working harder than ever, but you can't get ahead.
But instead of working to bring down costs and taking on corporate interests, politicians in Washington are making things worse. Politicians like Jon Husted.
Ohio deserves better and Ohioans are showing up and insisting on change. Last night was an important step in that fight because it brought us one step closer to flipping this seat and retaking Senate control.
But we also know this battleground race is about to get harder.
A new poll shows me down by 3 points. National Republicans are pouring $79 million into Ohio to defeat us – more than they're spending in any other battleground state. And Jon Husted's super PAC just launched a six‑figure ad buy attacking me.
They know Ohio is in play. They know we can win. And they know that if we do, we can flip the Senate.
The Cook Political Report now calls this race a "Toss Up." That matters. So does the grassroots energy we've built together.
That's why we set an ambitious goal: to raise $1 million by the end of the week so we can make critical investments across the state and reach voters in every corner of Ohio. So if you're able, will you chip in $7, split between my campaign and the DSCC, to help us start the general election strong, flip this seat, and flip the Senate?
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will process immediately and be split between Friends of Sherrod Brown and the DSCC.
We've got a lot of work ahead of us, but I'm ready. Because when you love this country, you fight for the people who make it work.
