I want to tell you a story from my latest trip to Iowa. I hope you'll take a minute to read it. Then if you'd like, chip in $5 or whatever you can to keep powering this campaign.

On Monday, I visited Harlan, Iowa, a town in a county that supported Trump by 33%.

It's a town of about 4,800 hardworking people that feels as far from the political games in Washington as you can get.

Folks there spoke about a future impacted by climate change, a trade war that's hurting their wallets, and the bills that are piling up faster than their paychecks.

They're open to voting against Trump in 2020, if we just give them something to vote for.

After 14 trips across Iowa, it wasn't a surprise to hear their concerns.

What did surprise me was that, with so many candidates in this race, I'm one of the only ones who has actually visited the county this election.

It's clear there's a major disconnect between daily life out here and what goes on in Washington.

The bickering. The politicking. The inaction.

Nothing is getting done and it's hurting folks in Harlan and in every corner of the country.

Partisan divides are not an excuse for progress to stop. Trust me. I won my last election the same year Trump took the state by 20 points. Yet we were still able to put politics aside to protect healthcare for nearly 100,000 people, freeze college tuition, and kick dark money and foreign donors out of our state's elections.

I'm in this race because voices in communities like Harlan are getting lost.

If we don't show up. If we don't listen. If we don't take back the places we lost, Trump will win. And that means nothing will get better.

As the only candidate who's won a Trump state, I know I can win in 2020, but first I need your help. If you're with me -- if you're ready to win back the places we've lost -- I hope you'll chip in to my campaign today:
