Hi friend,

Tonight is the first presidential debate, in which we’ll hear my friend Joe Biden go head-to-head with President Trump, and tomorrow is our campaign’s last quarterly fundraising deadline before the election. The next 24 hours will help determine the future of our country and the stakes could not be higher.

Before I ask if you can chip in to help ensure we have the resources to get out the vote and win, I hope you’ll hear me out.

We as a country find ourselves in a moral moment. For the past four years, President Trump has sown chaos, hatred, and division across our country, all while failing to properly address the COVID-19 pandemic that’s now left more than 205,000 Americans dead.

This is a president who’s taunted the rule of law, threatened the free press and protesters exercising their First Amendment rights, encouraged foreign interference in our elections, and personally profited off the presidency.

Through his words and actions, he’s attacked immigrants, women, Black and brown people, the LGBTQ community, students, our seniors, and so many others while completely obliterating our democratic norms and basic decency along the way.

And as we’ve seen, far too many Republicans like Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell have enabled him since the very beginning.

Everything from health care coverage for millions of people, to reproductive choice guaranteed in Roe v. Wade, to our bedrock environmental protections, to our most basic right to vote, and so much more are on the line in this election.

I know in my heart we can undo the damage of the past four years and move our country forward. But I truly fear the prospect of another four years under the Trump administration. Not only for us, but for future generations.

Joe Biden’s been saying, “This is the battle for the soul of our nation.” And he’s right.

That’s why I’ve been working so hard to make sure that this campaign and others have the resources needed to win this November, so we can take back control of the Senate and remove Trump from the White House for good.

With so much on the line and our most important deadline so far coming up in about 24 hours, will you make a contribution of any amount today to support us in this fight?
