Hello,

FIRST: Several polls showed Chuck Grassley’s approval rating at the lowest it’s EVER been among Iowa voters, with Admiral Mike Franken gaining ground and right on Grassley's heels.

BUT THEN: Our fundraising slowed way down, forcing us to officially lower our end-of-month fundraising goal from $750,000 to $700,000.

AND NOW: There are just hours until our deadline, and we’re still falling short of our lowered goal and what we need to help Mike Franken defeat Chuck Grassley and turn Iowa blue.

There’s still time to make up the gap and ensure we have the resources to fight back against the millions of dollars Mitch McConnell’s raising into Super PACs to attack us. But we’re counting on grassroots donors like you to give now if we're going to hit our goal and win:

Senate control is on the line, so we absolutely cannot afford to fall short of this lowered goal. Please, can we count on you to chip in $5 or more right now – whatever you can afford to spare – so we can hit our lowered $700,000 end-of-July goal and help Admiral Mike Franken defeat Chuck Grassley and turn Iowa blue?

Thank you for stepping up when it matters most,

Team Franken
