Let me be blunt.

Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell want to put Oregon in play in 2020. After all, Hillary Clinton won just 50.07% of the vote here in 2016.

They want to recruit a top-flight challenger to take me on. And it's our job to do everything we can to stop that.

A big part of that challenge? Demonstrating that we're ready to once again build the biggest grassroots campaign in Oregon history — just like we did in 2008 and 2014.

Will you dig deep and chip in $3 or more to help us demonstrate our grassroots strength before tonight at midnight?

Another generous donor, a family in Portland, has stepped up to match the first $2,800 we raise today.

I've spent the last few years making a whole bunch of big enemies with deep pockets.

People who don't like I'm taking on the Trump administration. People who don't like my work to stop climate chaos, end our nation's cruel immigration policies, fix our broken gun safety laws, and reduce the cost of health care (including prescription drugs.)

I'm talking about the NRA. I'm talking about big polluters and the Kochs. I'm talking about Big Pharma. I'm talking about everyone who is counting on Mitch McConnell's obstructionist agenda.

They want to put Oregon in play. That's why I'm counting on your support.

Donate $3 before the end-of-quarter fundraising deadline and let's close out this last $2,800 match by midnight tonight.

Let's work to take Oregon off the map and win back the Senate in 2020.

Onward,

Jeff
