Friend – It wasn't exactly easy growing up as a Black girl from a poor family in the South – the youngest of seven children who went to segregated schools. |

|
It wasn't easy for my parents – Dad a janitor, Mom a maid – but they did whatever they could to support us. While none of it was particularly easy, I'm very proud to have been the first in my family to graduate college. |

Much like my past, nothing about the road ahead – taking on an incumbent like Marco Rubio, whose seat the entire Republican establishment is pouring millions into protecting – is easy. But I'm never one to tire from a challenge, and I know that if I have grassroots support from people like you, we'll win. |
||
|
That's why Chrissy suggested I reach out to you personally to ask: Will you split a grassroots donation between Chrissy and me to help us win these battleground races? Whatever you contribute will build up our resources to protect our Democratic House and Senate majorities. |

|
I'm proud of this team for the momentum you've helped us build so far, but I'm counting on supporters like you to contribute just $5 or more now if we're going to keep going – together. |

|
Thanks as always for your support, |
