Hello —

I’d like to ask you to make a donation to our campaign today, but first, it’s important to explain where we stand in this close Senate race and why we need your support now, more than ever.

The latest polls show we’re in a single-digit race against Republican incumbent Thom Tillis — and the major election forecasters rank North Carolina a toss-up.

Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell’s attack network knows that our state is the “tipping point” in the fight to control the Senate, and we expect them to spend more money here than anywhere else in the country.

Why? Because North Carolina doesn’t do landslides. This race is sure to be a squeaker. That’s why we’re setting a goal to collect 25,000 individual donations before our end-of-month deadline. And I’m counting on you to step up.

This is an important moment for our campaign, so please donate $10 or whatever you can today. Any amount makes a tremendous difference:

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

If we can stand tall against these attacks and fund this campaign the right way by relying on small donations — as we already have — then we can send a powerful message about the future of our country.

Thanks for stepping up.
