Friend, think back to before the 2020 election. Donald Trump was president. Mitch McConnell controlled the Senate. A widely available COVID vaccine was still a far-off dream.

It hasn't been easy since then. But a lot has changed -- including control of the Senate, and we now have a Democratic Senate majority that actually gets things done.

Just this month, we passed legislation to save the USPS. We designated lynching a federal hate crime. We reauthorized the Violence Against Women Act. We sent critical aid to Ukraine. And we passed one of the strongest and boldest packages to fund our government in years. (And that's on top of the bipartisan Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act that's rebuilding our roads and the American Rescue Act that got vaccines in our arms and checks in our bank accounts!)

That's what we've accomplished with a 50-50 Senate -- the absolute thinnest of margins. Just imagine what we could do with an even stronger Democratic majority. That's what I'm fighting to do every day, but I need your help to raise another $50,000 by our end-of-quarter deadline to help elect more Democrats to the Senate. Will you chip in now to expand our majority and make even more progress?

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation to Chuck Schumer will go through immediately:

When Mitch McConnell ran the Senate, he had 53 Republican votes to work with. And he barely passed anything -- unless it was tax cuts for big corporations or to confirm Trump's right-wing judges.

That's because Senate Republicans are more interested in protecting their big donors than helping working people. They've already released a plan to raise taxes on HALF of Americans if they take back the Senate! We absolutely cannot afford to let Mitch McConnell become majority leader again and have all of our momentum grind to a halt.

Make no mistake: Senate Democrats get it done, but we can get even more done if we add to our Senate majority in November. Chip in today to help us keep up the momentum and elect more Democrats to the Senate this year.
