Each and every day, it is not lost on me that
I'm in what will undoubtedly be the most expensive 2022 race for
the U.S. Senate – a race that can decide the Senate majority and
will be anything but easy.

But I know a thing or two about persevering, and winning, even
if the odds are stacked against me.

I've overcome plenty of adversity in my life.
There was nothing easy about growing up as a poor, Black girl in
the segregated South. But my family's faith, and faith in
opportunity, taught me perseverance. It was my family,
particularly my mother's words of, "Never tire of doing good,
Val" that pushed me to where I am.

I carry the spirit of her words with me even today – as I
reflect about my career of service to Floridians and my path to
being a candidate for the U.S. Senate.

There was nothing easy about being a first-generation college
graduate – nor was it easy working my way up the ranks of the
Orlando Police Department. For 27 years, I served when it wasn't
exactly ordinary to see a woman on the force, let alone a Black
woman. But I never tired, and eventually, I became the first
woman to lead my department as chief of police.

And
John, I know firsthand
there's nothing easy about winning elections in Florida. My first
run for Congress was one of my toughest fights – but even in
defeat, I never tired because I knew I could do good for my
community. And it certainly wasn't easy to hold a lawless
president – a habitual offender – to account. But I served as an
impeachment manager, prosecuting Donald Trump in the Senate
because no one should be above the law.

My road to this moment was not easy, and I'm not sure that in
anywhere but America could a little Black girl, the daughter of a
maid and a janitor growing up in the South in the '60s, have a
story so filled with opportunities like these. And I am
determined to meet this moment, to win, to never tire of doing
good, so that anyone can have a story of opportunity.

This may be my toughest challenge yet, which is why I'm urging
you – every last person reading this email – to chip in whatever
you can to ensure I have the resources to defeat Marco Rubio and
win in Florida: Please, will you split $10 or more between me and
Ron Be Gone to help me flip Florida blue and defend our
Democratic Senate majority? Every dollar you give increases my
ability to compete and win this tough battleground race.
