It's official, John: We won the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate!

I am so grateful to every person who believed in our campaign and our vision for a better country. Having your trust and support is something I will never take for granted. This moment is truly the greatest honor of my life.

Our momentum is building like never before, but our opponents, Eric Schmitt and John Wood, will be mobilizing powerful forces to defeat us. I need you with me in this, John. Please, can you make a donation to power this campaign all the way to November?

The energy on the ground is incredible – and it's all because people like you believed in my campaign and stood by me when it counted most. I am so, so grateful for everything that you've done to power this movement.

The results prove what we've been hearing on the ground for months: People are fired up to flip this seat and elect a leader who will truly deliver for their families. Missourians have had enough of cold, partisan leadership. They've had enough lawyers and career politicians.

Folks know that it's time for something different. And they know I'll lead with compassion and prioritize people, not partisanship. I'll listen to you and your concerns, not the lobbyists. A nurse has never been elected to the Senate, but Washington sure could use the honesty, integrity, and problem-solving skills that we exemplify.

Our team is ecstatic. Even still, we know this victory is only the first step. We're taking this campaign all the way to Washington – and we've got a long road ahead of us. Our opponent has deep-pocketed allies who will do anything to keep this Senate seat red. 

But we have something even more powerful: you. By donating even just one dollar, you're powering our campaign forward and making an investment to end the opioid crisis, make daily life more affordable, and bring kindness and compassion to Washington.

We have a big fight ahead of us, and I can't take on Eric Schmitt and John Wood without you. I need your support today and every step of the way to Election Day. So please, can you make a donation – whatever you can spare will help – to flip this seat blue and send a nurse's heart and mind to Washington?

I'm so grateful to have you on my team in this work.

Onward,
Trudy
