My team just shared a number with me that I think you should know: $12.86. That’s the average contribution online to our campaign this year.

I’m really proud of our $12.86 average contribution and what it says about our campaign. Our team is fueled by hard-working grassroots donors who chip in what they can when they can to make a difference — not corporate special interests or right-wing billionaires.

But here’s the rub: Thanks to their rolodex of right-wing megadonors, Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, and Senate Republicans have raised millions of dollars this year to reclaim the Senate majority in Washington.

They might have a fundraising advantage, but this incredible grassroots team has taken on right-wing megadonors before and won — I know we can do it again and protect our majority.

So, will you chip in our average contribution of $12.86 — or anything you can afford — to help keep our people-powered movement going strong? Our mid-month deadline expires in 48 hours, so I’d really appreciate anything you can spare.

The response to emails just like this one is always so incredible. I really hope you know how much your support means to me.
