Our digital fundraising took a big hit yesterday, friend.

Like most campaigns, we use Facebook as part of our robust digital fundraising program. But while Facebook was down yesterday, we lost that vital source of grassroots support.

As the digital director, I set daily fundraising benchmarks – and missing even one can cause us to fall behind our GOP opponents. With the Senate split 50-50 and top Republicans spending millions against us, we cannot afford to fall short.

That's why I'm reaching out to you with an urgent request, friend. If we're going to make up for our Facebook advertisement shortfall, we need to raise TWICE as much on email. So can you rush $5 today to help us make up the difference?

Thank you in advance!
