John,

I'm running for Iowa's Senate seat against GOP Sen. Chuck Grassley – and if we flip this seat blue, Democrats will be practically guaranteed to maintain the Senate majority that supporters like you worked so hard to win in 2020. Nobody will work harder than I will to make that happen, but I hope you'll allow me a moment to explain why I need your help tonight. 

Sen. Grassley has been in Washington for seven terms – and right now he's never been more vulnerable: His approval ratings are lower than they've been in nearly four decades, and 64% of likely voters don't want to reelect him! This is an unprecedented opportunity for Democrats, but Mitch McConnell's allies have a campaign war chest of more than $39 million to take back the Senate and keep vulnerable seats like this red. 

We can win, but only if we build up a powerful grassroots movement that can compete against a seven-term incumbent and Mitch McConnell. That's why I'm asking 633 members of this team – including you, John – to become Senate Majority Defenders by making a contribution of $5 or more today. Will you donate now?

Elections matter. The makeup of Congress matters – and with our Senate majority as thin as it can be, we cannot rest on our laurels and allow Mitch McConnell to keep Iowa red and retake control in Washington. There's just simply too much at stake for Iowa's working families.

But, John, Mitch McConnell's allies are already attacking me, and the entire GOP is gearing up for a massive, coordinated effort to take back the Senate. Flipping this seat blue and expanding our Democratic Senate majority will take all of us going all in. So I'm counting on you to make a contribution now to activate your Senate Majority Defender membership to help me win in Iowa:

Rush a contribution of $5 or more right now to become a Senate Majority Defender and defeat Sen. Chuck Grassley in Iowa.

Thank you,

Abby Finkenauer
