Washington Republicans waged coordinated attacks for WEEKS to kick me off the ballot, hoping they could help their buddy Sen. Chuck Grassley (R) coast to reelection. But national Republicans' desperate and partisan attempt to end this grassroots campaign FAILED. The Iowa Supreme Court ruled unanimously that I should be allowed on the ballot.

Now, the fight continues. The fight for a voice for Iowa's working families in Washington, and the fight for an expanded Democratic Senate majority that will get things done for the American people. Achieving all that means defeating Sen. Chuck Grassley and flipping this seat blue, and if you're with me, then I'm asking you to chip in $5 or more right now. Whatever you give will ensure we have the resources to keep fighting these attacks and defeat Sen. Grassley on Election Day.

These attempts to dismantle our campaign were pathetic, plain and simple. The only reason national Republicans did this is because they know Sen. Grassley is facing RECORD-LOW approval ratings with Iowa voters, and that only 27% of likely voters said they want to reelect the guy. Instead of trying to face our campaign head on, they dragged us through the court system to drain our resources with costly legal fees. 

But our justice system saw right through their desperate attempts to thwart democracy, with every justice on the Iowa Supreme Court ruling that our campaign deserves to be on the ballot.

Now, we’re going to keep talking to Iowans in every corner of the state and building our coalition to beat Chuck Grassley. But Washington Republicans have more than $41 million in the bank to keep on attacking candidates like me throughout the course of the campaign. We need massive resources to take Chuck Grassley on with full force this November – that starts with grassroots supporters like you.

Please, to ensure I can defeat Sen. Chuck Grassley and expand our Democratic Senate majority, chip in a donation of $5 or whatever you can spare right now. Nobody will fight harder than I will to flip this seat blue. You have my word.

I appreciate you being on my grassroots team. Let's go win this.
