Hello,

When you’re up against Chuck Grassley and Senate control is on the line, you need to raise a lot of money in order to run a winning campaign against Mitch McConnell’s Super PACs. That’s exactly the spot I find myself in.

But with just 16 hours until our most important mid-month deadline of the campaign, it’s looking like we might fall short of our $250,000 goal and what we need to defeat Chuck Grassley and turn Iowa blue.

This couldn’t be more important. Please, will you give $5 or whatever you can afford now – before our critical mid-month deadline at midnight tonight – to help me hit our goal, defeat Chuck Grassley, and protect our Democratic Senate majority?

Control of the Senate will be decided here in Iowa. The Republicans only need to pick up one seat to put McConnell back in charge, but if we’re able to defeat Grassley and turn Iowa blue, we can put a stop to their sinister plans.

Iowa was one of the closest Senate races in the country in 2020. It’ll be even closer this time. According to a brand-new Des Moines Register poll, Chuck Grassley’s approval ratings are now the lowest they’ve ever been!

If we’re going to win, though, we need to hit our goal before our critical mid-month deadline at midnight tonight – and right now, we’re still coming up short.

I’m not taking money from corporate PACs so I’m relying on you. Can I count on you to give $5 or more now – every dollar you can spare before our critical mid-month deadline at midnight tonight – to help me defeat Chuck Grassley, turn Iowa blue, and protect our Democratic Senate majority?

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

This November, we’re going to give Chuck Grassley the long-overdue dignified retirement he deserves. But I’m counting on grassroots donations from people like you in order to do it.

I couldn’t be more grateful to have you on the team.

Thank you,
