Hello,

I have incredible news to share. We just accomplished what no one else has ever done: We raised more than TWICE what Chuck Grassley raised in the last reporting period!

The polling has shown again and again that Chuck Grassley is more vulnerable than ever. Only 27% of Iowa voters want to reelect him, according to the Des Moines Register. And now we out-raised him for the first time!

Grassley has just started his first massive TV ad campaign across the state attacking me, and Mitch McConnell’s been raising millions into Super PACs. More attacks are soon to follow. I’m not taking a dime of corporate PAC money, so if I’m going to fight back, I need your help.

In order to keep up our momentum, we’ve set a goal of raising another $250,000 before our end-of-month fundraising deadline, but right now we’re still $84,240 short with time running out. Senate majority is on the line, and if we’re going to send Chuck Grassley packing, I’m counting on grassroots donors like you to give right now:

Please, will you chip in $5 or more right now – every dollar you can afford before my critical end-of-month deadline – to help me defeat Chuck Grassley, turn Iowa blue, and protect our Democratic Senate majority?

We cannot take our foot off the gas – not if we want to win and expand our Senate majority.

I’m so grateful for your support,

Mike Franken, U.S. Navy (ret.)
