Team –

I’m writing to ask you to make a contribution — $25 or whatever you can afford split between my campaign and Debbie Stabenow — to help counter the $1,000,000 NRSC attack ad that is on the air now.

Here’s the truth:

This is the biggest attack on our campaign so far. The NRSC put $1,000,000 behind this ad in one week alone, and they won’t stop there.

But we’ve seen tough times before. And thanks to you, we’ve always come out the other side stronger.

So, we need a BIG response to show them that it’s going to take a lot more than a few attack ads to stop this team and our momentum.

And friend, it’s critical that we have everyone with us if we’re going to hit our $1,000,000 goal before the end of April and set the record straight. Even splitting $25 can make a difference if everyone is pitching in.

We’ve had a good start so far, and while our opponents may have super PACs and outside groups spending millions of dollars in attack ads against us, we have each other. And that’s how we’ll win. Which is why I’m humbly asking:

Can you please split a donation of $25 or more today between my campaign and Debbie Stabenow to help us hit our $1,000,000 goal and counter the flood of outside spending pouring into this race? I would not ask were it not so important.

We are in a great position to win this race. The polls are close and our organization is strong. But the attacks we have yet to face will be unprecedented — and we have to be ready. And if you chip in to help, I know we will be.

Thank you,

Mark Kelly
