John,

No one should choose between putting dinner on the table and picking up their prescription drugs.

No one should have to work two or three jobs, let alone do so and still struggle to send their kids to college or afford a down payment on a home.

No one should be priced out of the American Dream.

But right now, leaders in Washington aren't doing enough to make life better for American families. They're too concerned with lining their pockets and scoring political points.

Trudy Busch Valentine is running for Senate to give everyone a shot at achieving their American Dream. She'll work night and day to make that a reality – and she has a plan to get it done.

In the U.S. Senate, Trudy will push to lower the cost of basic necessities and invest in an economy that works for everyone – where the very wealthy pay their fair share and the middle class doesn't bear the greatest burden. She will work to raise the federal minimum wage and support legislation to protect our labor unions. And she'll boost Missouri’s economy by investing in new industries and building a well-trained and skilled workforce. 

You can trust Trudy to deliver results for your family as the next senator from Missouri. But to get to the Senate, she'll need your help. Please, before our live poll expires at 11:59 p.m., will you respond to help us build this grassroots movement?

Should Washington take action to make the American Dream possible for everyone?
