Today, progressive Senate candidate Lucas Kunce SLAMMED the senator he would serve with -- insurrectionist Josh Hawley -- in his first powerful video of the campaign. He also told his personal story of struggle, which led him to be a Marine and a crusader against big corporations.
Watch the video here. Then, help get his Senate campaign off to a strong start.
(Please share Lucas's video on Facebook and on Twitter.)
In the video, Kunce tells viewers why he is fighting for working families against Big Ag, Big Pharma, and other corporations controlling our farmland and economy:
Growing up, my family struggled. My sister was born with a heart condition. The hospital bills kept coming and my parents eventually went bankrupt. But then, our neighbors and friends lifted us up. They gave me the chance to make something of myself. So I did. I went to Yale, and became a U.S. Marine, to honor those who had given me so much.
Every time I came home from Iraq and then Afghanistan, things had changed. The community I love had been hollowed out. Jobs shipped away for Wall Street profits. The wealth of our state sucked dry by guys like Josh Hawley and Roy Blunt, and their top donors who got rich stripping our communities for parts.
It's time to Marshall Plan the Midwest, fight to invest right here in the heartland, where we've been making things for generations.
We’ll replace the broken system that divides us. Break the grip of corporate power. Join together, Black, white and brown, young and old.
The last time (retiring) Republican Senator Roy Blunt won this Senate seat, he barely scraped by with 49.2% of the vote. This is winnable, but we need to start early!
Thanks for being a bold progressive.
