I made an appearance on MSNBC this morning where I talked about how we'll defeat Sen. Chuck Grassley (R) and flip Iowa blue. This win is so crucial for defending Democratic Senate control – but it's also about standing up for our democracy.

You see, Sen. Grassley defended former President Trump's attempts to use his DOJ to overturn the 2020 election results, a move that only emboldens extremists. Trump and his extremist allies are so obsessed with holding onto power that they are willing to disenfranchise voters and destroy our democracy to do it.

Hardworking families deserve a senator who’s going to fight to protect our democracy – not spread baseless conspiracy theories and double down on their defense of Trump, like Sen. Grassley. It's no surprise that only 27% of Iowans want to reelect him for an eighth term in the U.S. Senate.

Iowa is ready for and deserves new leadership – and I have every intention of defeating Sen. Grassley. But I simply cannot win without your grassroots support. Can you pitch in $5 – whatever you can spare to flip Iowa blue – before midnight tonight to defend our Democratic Senate majority and protect our democracy?
