John —
Remember back in 2010, when Democrats held the White House, the Senate, and the House of Representatives by impressive margins?
With 60 votes in the Senate, Democrats passed the Affordable Care Act, protecting those with preexisting conditions and helping more than 20 million people gain insurance coverage.
And a few months later, Republicans won a majority in the House as well as Senate seats. The GOP blocked all meaningful progress in sight, even refusing to hold hearings for Merrick Garland’s nomination to the Supreme Court — Democrats were stopped at the hands of Mitch McConnell.
And in 2022, our work is at risk again. We could very well see a repeat of the losses we experienced in 2010 and 2014 if Democrats lose steam and grow complacent.
You’ve probably heard this — experts and pundits love to talk about the challenges a President’s party faces in the midterm elections. They talk about November as if it’s already over. But it’s not.
That’s why we send so many of these fundraising emails. Because we still have time left to fight as hard as we can to protect our majority and elect more Democrats.
Yesterday, James Carville told you we set a goal of 1,000 individual contributions before tomorrow’s mid-month deadline. We’re making progress, but are still a bit behind. If you add your donation now, we’ll be one step closer to having the resources we need to hold the Senate.
So if you are able, chip in $10 today to help fuel our work to elect more Senate Democrats and defend our Senate majority. If we start now and keep up the momentum, we’ll ensure Mitch McConnell is never in power again.
If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Losing even one Senate seat will hand control back to McConnell and his obstructionist allies. We can’t let that happen again.
The Biden administration is relying on a Democratic Senate to accomplish our agenda and deliver for the American people.
Thank you for all of your help,
Defend the Senate
