I need your immediate attention: Marco Rubio just went live with his first TV ad.

This ad – which is also being blasted across the airwaves with the help of Mitch McConnell’s committee – blatantly attacks and distorts my record. It spreads lies about me and my campaign. 

I hate to say it, friend, but ads like this have the potential to change the trajectory of this race for the worse – particularly when Rubio’s getting a boost from his buddy McConnell. I’ve never needed your help more to fight back, and I’ve set a $50,000 rapid response fundraising goal so I have the resources to do so. 

This grassroots campaign can show Rubio, McConnell and the entire GOP that their lies WON’T slow our momentum. That their attacks WON’T stop us from flipping Florida blue and expanding our Senate majority. But it will take your immediate donation. So please, will you split $5 between me and Gary Peters right now to help fight back against these low-down attacks and defend my record?

Thank you for your support at one of the most critical moments for my campaign.
