Dear John,

 

I hope you and your family are well. Last week, the President invited me to
the White House for his speech on the south lawn. It was a lovely evening and
there was a great deal of enthusiasm. The earlier speeches from an amazing
cross section of Americans were inspiring and represented our unique diversity
in our country. I made particular note of the poignant remarks by the Mueller
family, who lost their daughter in Syria. I also had a great conversation with
Heisman Trophy winner Herschel Walker, who’ll be coming to Nebraska next year.

 

After the President’s speech, I said to my wife, “Let’s just walk back”. She
suggested that maybe wasn’t a good idea, so we boarded a bus instead.
Initially, we weren’t able to move, as there was a clear danger nearby. Riot
police emerged in order in front of the bus, helping clear the way to exit. I
read later about what happened to my colleague Senator Rand Paul and to
Herschel Walker as they walked out of the White House.

 

These harrowing events have become the reality of our country. Each night we
watch on the news what’s happening on the streets– riots and fires, violence
and destruction. Comparing this chaos with the uplifting messages of all those
who spoke last week is like looking at two worlds. I think it is the clearest
and most overt example of the choice we have this November. Which America do we
want to see— one of defunding and destruction, or one of hope and togetherness?

 

I’m here to help you. In order to reclaim that America we want to see, I’ll
need your help too. If you’ve donated before, or put out a yard sign, or
knocked on doors, I truly and humbly thank you. If not, now would be great!
