Hey there, Joe here.

Thanks to the outpouring of grassroots support for our campaign, not only did we host Mississippi’s first socially-distanced rally yesterday — we launched our very first TV ad, “Always.”

We’re really proud of our new ad. Mike insisted that our first TV ad highlight his personal story and deep connection to Mississippi. We filmed it in Mike’s hometown of Yazoo City, in front of the public high school he helped integrate in the 60s.

As you read this, our historic new ad is playing on TVs all across Mississippi and online. You can watch our ad here if you haven’t already.

But I’ll be blunt, because this is important. Keeping our new TV ad on air costs money. A lot of money.

Every day, Cecilia and I will be checking our fundraising numbers to determine how much money we have left to keep our ad on the air. Right now, our priority is raising enough money to keep our ad up and running through the rest of September.

Especially during this pandemic, when in-person events and travel are so limited, TV ads play a crucial role in getting the word out about our campaign to move Mississippi forward.

I’m hoping I can count on you, today: Will you pitch in $10, or whatever you can donate right now, to help keep our very first TV ad up and running throughout the rest of September?

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

It’s so important that we have the necessary resources to keep spreading the word about Mike’s story and vision for Mississippi — but we know this is something we can only do together.

Thanks for fueling everything we do to make Mike the next U.S. Senator from Mississippi.
