I will not be the first, nor will I be the last to tell you this, friend. The party that wins control of the Senate in 2020 will determine the course of our nation for years to come.
The damage Mitch McConnell and his Republican majority have caused to our democracy is unfathomable and can be felt in every corner of the country. They have blocked progress on issues that affect us all - including key environmental protections, criminal justice reform, common sense gun safety measures, and affordable health care. This fall, Democrats have to win the White House and state legislative races, but they MUST also win the Senate. Our democracy is on the line.
That's why I'm reaching out to you about Gary Peters' race in Michigan. Experts from FiveThirtyEight to Roll Call say Democrats can win back the Senate - but only if Gary wins his race in Michigan.
It's important that we have leaders like Gary -- someone who isn't afraid to speak his mind and will take a comprehensive approach to dealing with the challenges we face as a nation. Gary is one of two Democratic senators fighting to win in a state carried by President Trump in 2016. To top it off, he is tied with his hard-right opponent, handpicked by Trump himself and Mitch McConnell.
So here's the deal: I told Gary I'd help him raise $10,000 to protect Michigan's Democratic Senate seat, and we really need to hit that goal before midnight. Can I count on you to give now and help us take back the Senate majority?
We can't let Gary get outraised again: Will you donate $5 or more right now, and protect this seat from money pouring in from Betsy DeVos' family?

The path for Democrats to take back the Senate is tough, but it runs straight through Michigan -- and that's why we need to make supporting Gary a top priority. I appreciate you stepping up and being a part of this important fight.
Eric H. Holder, Jr.
82nd Attorney General of the United States
