John – I'm about to ask you to make a donation to defeat Sen. Grassley. I know that the election feels far away, but I hope you can give me a minute of your time to explain why I'm asking you to invest in my campaign right now.

I'm asking you now because these early investments are how we build the capacity that will push us across the finish line to victory in November.

I'm asking you now so that our campaign will be able to compete with GOP spending today and every day through Election Day. (As a reminder, Mitch McConnell's allies already have a $30 million campaign war chest at their disposal.)

I'm asking you now so we have the resources to get television ads up on the air early and fight back against GOP misinformation and far-right attacks.

I'm asking you now so that we can talk to every single one of the critical voters who will decide this election – who will decide whether Democrats expand our Senate control.

I'm asking you now because this is a marathon, not a sprint, and I'm going to need you with me every mile and every step of the way.

So John, if you're with me to flip this seat blue, expand our Senate majority and fight for the working families in Iowa who Sen. Grassley has left behind, then please, make a donation to my campaign right here and now.

Every dollar gets us one step closer to defeating Sen. Grassley and defending our Senate majority. Thank you for believing in my campaign and standing with me today.

– Abby
