Wisconsin deserves a U.S. Senator who is prepared to take on powerful corporate interests and prioritize the needs of working families.

I've got about 5 minutes of free time in my schedule today. I know it doesn't sound like much. But it's rare for me to catch a break like this between my campaign for U.S. Senate and my responsibilities serving as Wisconsin's Lieutenant Governor.

Today I would like to take a few minutes of my free time to tell you why I decided to run for U.S. Senate, and why your involvement in this campaign is going to make all the difference in this election.

Back when I was first thinking about running, I wasn't exactly sure what to expect. While I had run for state offices before – first for state representative, and then for lieutenant governor – this U.S. Senate campaign would be unlike any other I had done before.

But there was one thing I knew for certain: Wisconsin deserves a U.S. Senator who is prepared to take on powerful corporate interests and prioritize the needs of the working-class and middle-class families in our state. That is exactly what I will do in Washington.

Here's another thing about running for U.S. Senate: it requires a significant amount of resources in order to build a successful statewide campaign. Especially in a state like Wisconsin, which has been rated one of the most competitive races in the entire country.

Ron Johnson has been named the most vulnerable Republican Senator up for re-election this November, and we have a very good chance at defeating him. But if we're going to come out on top, I'm going to need support from people like you.

So I'm asking:

Can you please make a $3 contribution to my campaign for U.S. Senate in Wisconsin? We're quickly approaching a big FEC fundraising deadline, and I'm not taking any corporate PAC money. So any amount you can give will make a big difference.

The only way we'll win in November is by building out the largest grassroots campaign that Wisconsin has ever seen. It means the world to me to know that we are together in that effort.

All my best,

Mandela
