Dear MoveOn member,
This is U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown, and I'm writing to you today because
there's an important election in my home state of Ohio this November.
My friend, Democrat Tim Ryan, is taking on JD Vance—a far-right venture
capitalist propped up by Donald Trump and Big Tech billionaires. Here's
what you need to know about Vance:
1. He's a phony populist who abandoned Ohio for Silicon Valley.
2. He founded a sham nonprofit to promote his political career in the
midst of Ohio's opioid crisis.^1
3. He supports a complete and total ban on abortion, even in cases of
rape and incest—going so far as to call rape "inconvenient."^2
The latest poll shows the race is in a statistical tie.^3
[ [link removed] ]That's why I'm writing to you today: Will you chip in $3
today to defeat MAGA radical JD Vance and elect Democrat Tim Ryan? Every
penny you donate will go directly to Tim's campaign.
John, electing Tim Ryan is one of the best opportunities we
have to keep the Senate blue and expand our Democratic majority.
Mitch McConnell knows it—and he's terrified.
That's why one of McConnell's dark-money groups just bought $28 million
worth of TV airtime in Ohio to help Vance.^4
McConnell knows that Vance's views are deeply unpopular, and the GOP's
only chance at victory is to smear Tim Ryan and spread lies about him.
We can't let them get away with it.
If we're going to win, we need every voter in Ohio to know exactly who JD
Vance is and the awful things he stands for.
And that's where you can help.
[ [link removed] ]Will you chip in $3 today to stop the GOP takeover of the
Senate and to elect Tim Ryan? 100% of your donation will go directly to
Tim's campaign.
Tim understands the dignity of work and the power of a union. He
understands that we build our economy from the middle out. That we put
people first—not Wall Street, not drug companies, not the gun lobby.
And Tim unequivocally supports access to abortion. He wrote on Twitter
this spring, "No more excuses. End the damn filibuster. Codify Roe.
Protect women's freedom to choose."^5
We need just two more votes in the Senate to do just that. Tim can be one
of those votes, but he needs our help to win in November.
[ [link removed] ]John, please join with me and chip in $3 now
to help stop JD Vance and the GOP Senate takeover and help elect Democrat
Tim Ryan. 100% of your donation will go directly to Tim's campaign.
With gratitude,
Senator Sherrod Brown
