john,

Mark Kelly here. In just a moment, I’m going to ask you to make a contribution to help me defend this Senate seat. Please give me a chance to explain why this request — especially today — is so important.

Here’s the truth:

We may not know who our Republican opponent will be, but they sure know who they’re up against:

Us.

So, while we wait, dark money groups and corporate special interests are running millions of dollars in attack ads against us.

While we wait, Donald Trump is rallying his supporters by saying: “Taking back America starts with kicking Mark Kelly the hell out of the United States Senate.

We may have to wait to know who our opponent will be, but we cannot wait to raise the money we need to win. And with our deadline just 12 hours away, I have to ask:

Can you please split a contribution, $10 or whatever you can afford, between Tina Smith’s and my campaign today? Our fundraising deadline is exactly 12 hours away, and we need to hit our goals. I would not ask if it were not so important.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your split donation to Tina Smith and Mark Kelly will be processed immediately:

Chip in $3 now Chip in $10 now

Chip in $25 now Chip in $100 now

Chip in $250 now Another Amount

Thank you in advance for chipping in. These grassroots donations are so important. Which is why everyone will be watching the fundraising numbers we share at the end of this month.

Mark Kelly
