Hi friend,
Tonight is the first vice presidential debate, in which we’ll hear my friend Senator Kamala Harris go head-to-head with Vice President Mike Pence — and next week is our campaign’s final FEC fundraising deadline before the election. These last few weeks will help determine the future of our country and the stakes could not be higher.
Before I ask if you can chip in to ensure Democrats have the resources to get out the vote and win this election, I hope you’ll hear me out.
We as a country find ourselves in a moral moment. For the past four years, President Trump and Vice President Pence have spread chaos, hatred, and division across our country, all while failing to properly address the COVID-19 pandemic that’s now left more than 200,000 Americans dead.
Folks, the stakes of this election are at an all-time high. Donald Trump is a president who has 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, 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 freedom 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 and Kamala Harris have been saying, “This is a battle for the soul of our nation.” And they’re 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 and Pence from the White House for good.
With so much on the line and our final FEC deadline coming up in exactly one week, will you split a contribution between my campaign and my good friend Tammy Baldwin’s work to flip the Senate to support us in this fight?
