Hey folks —

I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait for summer to start. It’s one of the best times of year to take in all of the amazing landscapes Colorado has to offer, plus, who doesn’t love barbecues on the 4th of July?

In Colorado, and all battleground states, summer is also when we start seeing political ads — a lot of them. That’s when campaigns start spending the money they’ve raised to get their message out.

And right now, Senate Republicans' campaign arm is getting summer started early — to the tune of at least $53 million worth of ad buys in states with vulnerable Senate seats.

That’s why my team sent out a message on Friday about our upcoming end-of-month fundraising deadline. I know you might get tired of hearing about these, but they really do matter, especially because our work to defend our Democratic majority is powered by folks like you.

So far, we’re tracking behind on our end-of-month fundraising goal. But my team tells me that if everyone who opens this email makes a contribution of any amount, we’ll be in great shape to hit our target by next week’s deadline.

So what do you say, folks? Will you chip in whatever works for you right now — even if it’s a cup of coffee’s worth — to help us defend Democrats in battleground states as national Republicans amp up their spending spree?
