Friend --

Since Democrats won control of the Senate, we've taken huge steps to speed up vaccinations, get the economy moving, and protect the future of the planet. But we have a major problem.

With Democrats' razor-thin Senate majority, Republicans only need to flip one seat to take back control for Mitch McConnell -- which means our entire agenda depends on not losing a single Democratic seat. That's why I'm writing to you today.

CNN just named my friends Catherine Cortez Masto (NV), Maggie Hassan (NH), Mark Kelly (AZ) and Rev. Raphael Warnock (GA) the most vulnerable Democratic senators up for reelection. We need to do everything we can to win these races, so I'm personally asking: Will you give $10 or more right now -- anything you can spare before midnight tonight -- to help us hold these seats and defend our Democratic Senate majority?

When we took back the Senate in January, Democrats made a promise to fight for everyday people, and so far, we're delivering on that promise. We're fighting to make historic investments in everything from health care to infrastructure -- and Catherine, Maggie, Mark and Raphael have been leading the charge in the Senate. I know they're the strong leaders we need to rebuild in the wake of this pandemic, but they need our help.

Nate Silver's FiveThirtyEight reported that Republicans started out favored to retake the Senate for Mitch McConnell -- and with the GOP already spending MILLIONS in these battleground states, we don't have a minute to waste.

So please: Will you rush a donation before our critical midnight deadline so we can keep these four critical seats and defend our Democratic Senate majority? Time is tight and we're still falling short of our goal.

We can't win without your support. Thank you for pitching in.

– Chuck Schumer
