Team,

We wanted to make sure you didn’t miss this message from Michael last week.

The long and short of it is that Mitch McConnell and the National GOP started spending their massive, $331 million warchest in Colorado this month. In order to match their momentum, we’re counting on 850 donors to step up and chip in a donation before Wednesday’s end-of-month deadline.

We’re a grassroots, people-powered campaign and your support before Wednesday’s deadline will help us take on whatever comes next.

So please, chip in $10 right now to help get us back on track in time for our end-of-month deadline on Wednesday.

Thanks for being part of this team,

Team Bennet

Team,

I want to share some important updates about my race, but first, I have an important request: My team tells me that we need 1,500 more supporters to chip in to reach our end-of-month fundraising goal by Wednesday’s deadline. Can you step up with a donation today?

Midterm races are especially difficult for the party that controls the Senate, and this year is no different. For months, CNN, NPR, and Roll Call have rated my seat one of the top 10 most likely to flip, but a few things happened recently that changed the course of this race:

FIRST: Mitch McConnell called my MAGA opponent his “perfect candidate” and said he was “all-in in Colorado.”

THEN: The National GOP spent $250,000 to run TV ads across Colorado to support him. My opponent opposes the Inflation Reduction Act which I fought to pass that will lower prescription drug prices, ensure companies like Amazon pay their fair share, and reduce climate pollution by 40%.

NOW: The Cook Political Report has downgraded my race closer to a toss-up, and my opponent is hosting big-dollar fundraisers with Mitch McConnell because grassroots support is low.

Team, tough races like this one require discipline — even when it feels like National Republicans are throwing everything they have at us. Folks like you truly power my campaign, not corporate PACs or federal lobbyists, so I’m asking:

Before next week’s end-of-August fundraising deadline, will you chip in any amount to help us meet our goal? We need 1,500 more supporters to help us hit our target, but if everyone who reads this email chips in any amount, we’ll be in great shape.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Thank you,

Michael
