Mike Pence is on his way to my hometown of Traverse City right now, and we're reaching out because we need to be ready for any false attacks that are sure to come our way.

My husband Pete and I have had a front row seat to Pence's transition from attacking LGBTQ rights as Indiana's Governor to partnering with Donald Trump to do the same across our country. We need to stop him.

That's why I'm counting on you to rush a contribution of $10 or more to fight back against whatever Pence has planned during his visit to Michigan.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

No matter what Pence says today, we know the truth. When our auto workers' backs were against the wall, Trump said: "You could have let [the industry] go bankrupt."

When our farmers were bearing the brunt of the Trump-Pence trade war, this administration called them "whiners."

When our state still desperately needs federal support to combat this pandemic, Pence has failed in his role as the Chair of the Coronavirus Task Force.

And when the LGBTQ community needs protections against discrimination and expanded access to health care, Pence has tried to restrict it.

If it weren't for President Obama and Vice President Biden, Michigan would have lost hundreds of thousands of good-paying jobs. Michiganders like me will never forget that, but Trump will spend millions to convince voters otherwise and we need your help to fight back.

Chip in an urgent contribution of $10 or more to help us send a strong message to Pence that this grassroots team won't let Republicans win Michigan again.

Thank you,

Chasten Buttigieg
