Hi folks, I’m Justin, Michael’s campaign manager. 

Senator Rick Scott — the chair of the National GOP committee tasked with flipping the Senate — just released his policy goals that Republicans could pursue if they are successful in flipping seats like Michael’s. You’re a critical member of this team, so take a moment to read his plans, then pitch in $10 before our end-of-month fundraising deadline to re-elect Michael and keep Colorado blue.

RAISING TAXES ON LOWEST-INCOME AMERICANS

Michael cut taxes for working families through the expanded Child Tax Credit to give parents a fighting chance. Rick Scott opposed that tax cut and wants to raise taxes on low-income and older Americans.

Mitch McConnell, Rick Scott, and Senate Republicans favor tax giveaways for the wealthy while turning their backs on working families, so we’re fighting to keep the Senate out of their hands.

BUILDING OBSTACLES TO VOTE

Colorado has the second highest voter turnout in the country thanks to accessible mail-in-voting, same-day registration, and more. Scott hopes to flip the Senate and eliminate same-day registration to make it harder for you to make your voice heard. 

With voting rights already under attack nationwide and Michael’s opponent threatening Coloradans’ voting rights, our work to defend Michael’s seat and protect voting rights is critical. 

DESTROYING REPRODUCTIVE FREEDOM

The decision to have an abortion is deeply personal, and should be kept between a patient and their doctor. Michael co-sponsored the Women’s Health Protection Act to codify Roe v. Wade into law, but Scott and Republicans threaten reproductive freedom. 

The fight to defend Roe and uphold the right to safe and legal abortion care for people across the country is critical, folks. We can’t afford to get complacent so we must defend Michael’s seat and our slim Senate majority.

THE STATE OF THE MIDTERMS

Rick Scott’s committee raised over $100 million last year to funnel money into states like Colorado, and Michael’s seat was recently ranked in the top 10 most likely to flip this year.

We’ve got our work cut out for us and since we’re turning down corporate PAC and federal lobbyist money, we’re counting on grassroots donors like you. 

We don’t have to outraise the National GOP, but we can’t fall short of our goals. Fending off attacks against Michael is expensive and with the National GOP raking in millions and wealthy, self-funded opponents already on the attack, we have to stay on track. 

Michael is counting on your support so he can continue fighting for Coloradans in the Senate. Please pitch in $10 — or what works for your budget — before Monday’s critical fundraising deadline.
