Friend --

Years ago, as a 13-year-old girl, Amy McGrath wrote a letter to her senator, Mitch McConnell.

She told him she wanted to fly fighter jets for her country, and women should be allowed to do that. He ignored her.

Well, Amy became a fighter pilot anyways. And now she's officially running for Senate to take on the senator who ignored her all those years ago: Mitch McConnell.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime chance for us to defeat the Republican Leader and replace him with an inspirational leader. But it'll only happen with your help. Can you chip in $10 or more right now so Amy can prove her strength right from the start?

Leader McConnell has turned the Senate into a legislative graveyard.

It's time for him to go -- and Amy is just the woman for the job. Amy McGrath is a former fighter pilot and United States Marine. She's ready to protect and expand access to affordable healthcare, support the right of every American to choose whether or not to have an abortion, tackle climate change, and so much more. But in order to tackle these big issues and create a democracy that once again works, first we've got to get her into the Senate.

This isn't going to be an easy race -- McConnell is deeply entrenched with Washington Special Interests so you can bet that dark money forces will gear up here like nothing we've ever seen.

Make no mistake, this race is winnable. NOW is our chance to take back the Senate and get to work on the important issues facing our nation. Let's get it done, together.

But if we're going to turn Kentucky blue, she'll need the support of grassroots Democrats like you. So, I'm asking:

Can you chip in $10 or more right now towards Amy's campaign, so we can flip McConnell's seat and take back the Senate?

Thanks for taking a minute to support Amy.

Sincerely,

Chuck Schumer
