Friend,

I just stepped away from a strategy meeting at the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee – and the update is not good. I'm unfortunately falling $4,323 short of what I need to raise before August is up to ensure we have the resources we need to protect our Democratic Senate majority.

Let me be perfectly honest with you, friend, and explain why this is so important right now: The Senate control we worked so hard to win back last year could very well be gone in just about a year – and that's because Mitch McConnell only needs to flip one seat to retake the majority.

Right now, my incredible colleagues such as Mark Kelly in Arizona, Raphael Warnock in Georgia, Maggie Hassan in New Hampshire and Catherine Cortez Masto in Nevada are locked in battleground races that will decide who holds the majority. We can't let them down.

My colleagues and I are already up against tens of millions of dollars from right-wing super PACs, and although it pains me to say, the Senate Republican campaign outraised us last month. That's why missing these grassroots fundraising goals will jeopardize our ability to compete, win and defend our majority – so I'm personally asking you to help me make up this shortfall before it's too late.

With the Senate majority at stake, please rush a donation of $5 or more now. Whatever you pitch in today will help us make up this fundraising shortfall and ensure we can keep Senate control away from Mitch McConnell.

Thank you,

Gary
Chair of the DSCC
