Chuck Grassley is smearing me across the entire state with attack ads, and Mitch McConnell is raising millions more to stop me from turning Iowa blue.

Hello,

My team just wrapped up another emergency fundraising meeting. Chuck Grassley just launched ANOTHER huge TV buy smearing me across the entire state with attack ads, and Mitch McConnell is raising millions more to stop me from turning Iowa blue.

But with 12 hours until our most critical TV ad buy deadline yet of the campaign, we just checked ActBlue – and our grassroots fundraising has slowed way down. If I’m going to send Chuck Grassley packing and protect our Democratic Senate majority, I’m counting on a new surge of donations from people like you now.

The polling shows Grassley has never been more vulnerable, and we’re gaining ground. But Iowa was one of the closest Senate races in the country in 2020, and it’ll be even closer this year. If we miss our $45,000 fundraising goal now, we will have to scale back our ads and we will not be able to reach all of Iowa with our counter ads and compete with Mitch’s millions.

I’m not giving up – but I’m depending on you to maintain our momentum and win. If we turn Iowa blue this November, Democrats are guaranteed to protect our majority in the Senate. So I have to ask: Please, will you chip in $5 or more right now – every dollar you can afford before my critical TV ad buy deadline at midnight tonight – to help me defeat Chuck Grassley, turn Iowa blue, and expand our Democratic Senate majority?

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

We couldn’t have gotten this far without grassroots donors like you, but I need your continued help now.

I’m so grateful for everything you do,

Mike Franken, U.S. Navy (ret.)
