Hi gang,

I've taken on a lot of fights in my life, and I wanted to talk about some of the biggest ones and why they matter in this Senate race. I'm also going to ask you for a contribution to my campaign, and I hope this will help explain why.

(If you don't have time to read all the way through, you can pitch in here: [link removed].)

I dreamed of being a pilot ever since watching Star Wars as a little girl. Despite naysayers claiming the front lines was "no place for a woman," I became a commissioned officer in the Air Force, qualified for the Air National Guard, and went on to serve three tours in Afghanistan as a combat search-and-rescue and medevac pilot.

During a rescue mission, my helicopter was shot down by the Taliban, and I was injured by enemy gunfire. But my fight wasn't over. While I could no longer fly because of my injuries, I wanted to keep serving.

But the reality was, women weren't allowed to compete for elite military jobs because of the Ground Combat Exclusion Policy. So, I took the fight to DC and advocated (to members of both parties) to overturn the policy and open up hundreds of thousands of jobs for women in the military.

It was during this fight that I got a firsthand look at how broken Washington is -- and it left me with a lot of concerns about the dysfunctional mess we were leaving for our children. And that's why I decided to take on my latest fight -- running for the U.S. Senate.

That's why I'm asking for your help. Will you pitch in to my campaign so I can keep up the fight?

I love campaigning, but I'll be honest -- once in a while being on the road can get tough. Getting to know Texans all across our big and beautiful state is such a privilege, but sometimes it means giving up time I could be spending with my sons.

But the fact is, my boys are my reason for all of it. When I think about the kind of world I want to hand down to them, it's a far cry from where we are now.

How about you? If you're fed up with the status quo and want to build a better world for our kids and grandkids, will you pitch in to my campaign?

Thanks,
MJ
