Friends -
With a 50-50 split in the Senate right now, defending our Democratic majority this year is going to be an uphill battle.
But the best defense is a good offense, which is why I've endorsed Mandela Barnes to defeat Ron Johnson and win back Wisconsin's U.S. Senate seat for Democrats.
Look, Wisconsin is a golden opportunity for us to flip a Republican-held seat. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris won the state in 2020. And Ron Johnson has been named the most vulnerable Republican Senator up for re-election this year.
Mandela's race gives us the chance to not only keep our Senate majority, but to expand it even further. This race is as important as they come.
So with Mandela facing an important FEC fundraising deadline in just 3 days, I am asking you:
If you've saved payment info with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:
Earlier this year, Ron Johnson announced that he’s running for re-election, going back on his word that he wouldn’t be seeking another term in office.
Now, I’m not all that surprised by Ron Johnson’s dishonesty — he’s proven to be one of the leading spreaders of misinformation in the Trump era, on everything from election integrity to climate change to COVID-19.
I could go on and on and on and on about Ron Johnson’s history of falsehoods and lies. His brand of politics continues to threaten the very fabric of our democracy. Who knows how much more damage he can cause given another six years?
Mandela Barnes is exactly the candidate we can count on to defeat him, and Mandela will also make us proud in the Senate.
He’ll fight to create opportunities for hardworking families like the one he grew up in. His mom was a Milwaukee school teacher, and his dad worked the third shift at the General Motors plant. Those were solid, middle-class union jobs — the kind of jobs that could support a family. The kind of jobs that have slipped away as giant corporations have tilted the playing field in their favor.
I know right down to my bones that Mandela is our best chance to win back Wisconsin's Senate seat – as long as we all get in the fight.
Since his race is currently rated as a toss-up, we can’t wait a moment longer to build the momentum we’re going to need to win this thing and send Ron Johnson packing.
Thanks for being a part of this,
Elizabeth
