Friend,

In a moment, I'll explain why the stakes for the 2022 midterms have grown exponentially higher in recent weeks. Before I do, I want to ask you directly for your generous financial support before tonight's end of May fundraising deadline at midnight.

Even if it's just a small amount, anything you can chip in before the end of May deadline will boost our organizing efforts here in Michigan. Will you donate $17 or more right now and help me get out the vote and keep Michigan blue in 2022?

We already knew Betsy DeVos and Donald Trump were all in to win Michigan. Now they're doubling down. Last week, the DeVos family jumped into our Governor's race, publicly backing a radical Republican who only weeks ago pushed Donald Trump's dangerous lie that Michigan's 2020 election was stolen.

The endorsement is the last alarming signal that Donald Trump's Michigan end-run might be working. He's trying to remake the Michigan GOP in his image, putting money and public support behind candidates who push his "big lie."

His end game is disturbing — if his handpicked extremists win, he hopes they will help him contest or even steal the Presidential election in 2024.

The DeVos family and the Michigan Republican Party are fully on board with Donald Trump and his blatant attacks on democracy and our freedom to vote. We must fight back. I'm building a winning team to fight back and make sure Michigan Democrats win up and down the ticket in 2022, and I'm asking for your support right now to make that happen.

With less than 12 hours until midnight, we still need to raise $7,561 to reach our $100,000 May fundraising goal. Can I count on you to donate $17, our average online donation, or more to help us reach our goal?

Thank you for standing with Michigan and our country today. I am grateful for your support.

Debbie Stabenow
