Hi, it’s Gabby Giffords—former Congresswoman from Arizona. 11 years ago, I survived a mass shooting in my hometown, and became a national gun safety advocate so no one else has to go through what I went through.

That’s why I’m thrilled today to share that Giffords PAC is endorsing Peter Welch to represent Vermont in the United States Senate.

As Vermont’s congressman, Peter has proven to be a real champion in the fight to end gun violence. He has been a leading advocate for common-sense gun safety reform and continues to reach across the aisle to deliver much-needed results for Vermont.

But with the Senate hanging in the balance, this race in Vermont is shaping up to be one of the most consequential in the country. And we know that national Republicans are willing to do whatever it takes to try and retake the Senate majority. That’s why I’m personally asking: Can you chip in a $5 contribution to help Peter win in Vermont, and defend our Democratic majority?

Peter’s up against a lot—and Republicans need to flip just one seat to take back the Senate, which means they’ll try to spend big to win. With so much on the line, from affordable health care to gun safety, this campaign can’t afford to lose momentum now. Let’s send a message that Vermont isn’t for sale by sending Peter to the Senate.

Please chip in a $5 contribution to Peter’s campaign for Senate. There’s never been a more important time to show your strong support for this team.
