Mitch McConnell just got desperate, John: Republican Jeff Sessions – Trump's former attorney general – just announced he's running for Senate in Alabama against Democrat Doug Jones to expand McConnell's Senate majority. 

That's why this news couldn't have come at a better time: A group of fired up donors ready to fight tooth and nail just offered to DOUBLE every dollar we raise for Doug until midnight tonight! 

Nate Silver's FiveThirtyEight says Doug is the most vulnerable Senate incumbent in the country. And his race could make the difference between either taking back the Senate for Democrats and protecting everything from our health care to women's rights – or giving ultraconservatives a blank slate to pass their corrupt agenda.

Doug can win this race! He’s ready to fight like hell and stand up to Jeff Sessions’ divisive agenda, but right now he’s relying on grassroots Democrats like you to keep this Senate seat we all worked so hard to win and protect Democrats’ path to flipping the Senate – but he's falling dangerously short of his rapid response fundraising goal, and we only have hours left to have every gift DOUBLED.

We can't afford two more years of a Mitch McConnell-led Senate, John: Will you rush $5 (becomes $10) to help Doug win in Alabama and take back the Senate for Democrats? The future of health care for millions, the Supreme Court and our civil rights are all on the line.
