Friends,

Tonight, I'm giving a speech at the first-ever virtual Democratic National Convention.

I am so proud and grateful for the opportunity to share my story and to share why I am doing everything I can to help elect Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in November.

But before I take the (virtual) stage, I have one quick ask for you:

Will you chip in before I take the stage in just a few hours? It would go a long way towards supporting my reelection campaign and it would mean a lot to know my supporters have my back. You can chip in here: [link removed]

I'm using my speech tonight as an opportunity to talk about the issues facing our troops, Veterans and military families.

Because I've watched over the last four years as Donald Trump politicized our military, insulted Gold Star families and attacked brave Americans like Lieutenant Colonel Vindman who told the truth even if Trump didn't like it. They deserve better.

They deserve a leader like Joe Biden, who is the only candidate with the depth of experience needed to protect our country, but also the humility to recognize the magnitude of the sacrifices our troops make.

That's why I am so excited to take part in this Convention. And why I will do everything in my power to help Joe Biden and Kamala Harris defeat Donald Trump this November.

Thank you for reading.

All my best,

Tammy Duckworth
