Hi friend -- It's Martin Sheen.
While I may have played a fictional president on TV, I’ve spent my life outside of acting devoted to political activism. That’s why I’m reaching out to you now -- because frankly, I’m concerned about what’s at stake in the fight for the Senate.
Democrats hold a 50-50 Senate majority, so if Republicans win even one seat, they could flip the Senate and hand power back to Mitch McConnell.
Saving the Senate has never been more critical. So I’m personally asking, will you join me in protecting and expanding our Democratic majority by chipping in $5 to the DSCC today?
In one of the most important midterm elections of our lifetimes, we can’t leave anything to chance. Everything from voting rights and climate action to commonsense gun reform and more is on the ballot in just a few weeks.
But Senate Democrats just told me they’re short of their crucial $250,000 end-of-quarter fundraising goal. This is the LAST quarterly deadline before the election, making it the most important one of the entire cycle. Meanwhile, the first early votes are already being cast. This is getting real: The election is here.
If Democrats don’t reach this goal, then history-making Democratic senators like Raphael Warnock and Catherine Cortez Masto will have nothing to fight back with as they get pummeled by millions of dollars in attack ads. Promising Democratic candidates like Val Demings and Mandela Barnes won't get the support they need to break through.
And then? Republicans will flip the Senate to undo all the progress President Biden and Senate Democrats have made in the last two years. They'll stop all the change you and I are still fighting for -- for years to come.
If everyone reading this email right now took action today, we could make all the difference in this election. So please, I'm personally asking you to pitch in $5 before the end-of-quarter deadline to help defend and expand our already razor-thin Senate majority:
We need your help to defend our Senate majority. If you've saved payment info with ActBlue Express, your donation will be processed immediately.
Thank you for helping secure the future of our Senate -- and the future of our country.
