Hey there -- my name is Mason.

Today, my family is dropping me off at college but before we hit the road, I wanted to send a quick message.

My stepdad, Tim Ryan, is running for U.S. Senate in Ohio. I might be biased, but there is no one better to represent Ohio. He’s lived here his whole life! Plus, he’s a die-hard Browns fan (for the record, I’m more of a Steelers guy).

I’m really thankful for him. Not only is he doing everything he possibly can to improve our country, like fighting for workers on the House floor, but he always makes time for Brady’s and my football games and Bella’s cheerleading.

He’s the leader Ohio deserves -- one who’s not afraid to roll up his sleeves, do the dirty work, and get results. One who never forgets that everything starts and ends with family. One who knows how much is at stake and will do whatever it takes to win.

Look, we all know this race will be tough. And Tim says attacks against him might get real nasty real quick. So I want to help out his campaign one final time before I head off to college.

I’m personally asking -- can you chip in a donation right now to help us fight back against the GOP’s attacks and flip Ohio’s Senate seat blue? If we want to win this race, we’ll need a big team behind us.

Let’s get it,

Mason
