Hello —

In just a minute, I will ask you to add a critical donation toward our most important goal of this campaign. But first, I want to briefly explain something to you:

Every so often, elected officials like me have to report their fundraising details to the Federal Election Commission and make all of our numbers public. This might seem a little dry, but it's a way of ensuring transparency in our elections. And it's also a big test of our campaign's strength.

Next week is the final FEC deadline before Election Day. When our fundraising report is out, you can bet everyone from Donald Trump to Mitch McConnell will pore through it, looking for any opportunity to attack us.

These deadlines are always critical, but especially now. This will be our final chance to report strong numbers to the FEC and put ourselves in a position to win.

But looking at these numbers right now, it’s clear we will miss our $100,000 FEC goal and stumble our way into the final stretch — unless we act fast.

Will you rush an urgent donation to get us back on track to reach our goal? It’s very important that we don’t come up short before the most important deadline of this election. That’s why I’m urging you to chip in:

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

I can always count on the responses to these emails being really great, and I cannot tell you how grateful I am that you're a part of the strongest grassroots team in the nation. Thank you.
