I'm worried, John,
I just got off the phone with my finance director, Lexie, and unfortunately she didn't have good news: we're dangerously close to missing our $10,000 June mid-month fundraising goal.
We stress a lot about the importance of early investments in races like ours, and that's because hitting our early fundraising goals can have a stronger impact on our race in the long run than last-minute surges in the final weeks. It's so important that we don't fall behind now.
But there is a piece of good news: my team let me know if 130 supporters chip in $10 right now, we'll be able to close our fundraising gap. So, I'm reaching out to my best supporters to see if I can count on you to help us close the gap. Will you chip in?

John, we defied the odds in 2018 when we defeated one of Sam Brownback's biggest fans -- and 2022 we're going to do it again. The truth is, if we lose this crucial race, we'll have a one-way ticket back to the Brownback era.
We've come too far in the last 2.5 years to risk letting that happen.
But 2022 will be our toughest fight yet. Inside Elections, Cook Political Report, The Kansas City Star, AND Nate Silver's FiveThirtyEight are all calling me one of the most vulnerable Democrats up for re-election in the country.
Everything from voter outreach, running our email program, hosting campaign events, and building a volunteer program costs money. That's why our team sets mid-month fundraising goals, so we can stay on top of fundraising and invest in this race early.
If you're reading this and are ready to win in 2022, chip in what you can before midnight to help us raise the remaining funds we need to hit our goal.
