John – with decades of political experience under my belt, I know when it's time to panic. So I personally reviewed a polling analysis from Nate Silver that INCREASED Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto's (D) chances of LOSING in Nevada, and it's safe to say that I've never been more worried.

We're on a path to handing over our Democratic Senate majority to Mitch McConnell on a silver platter if we don't act NOW. It's precisely why the senator and I mobilized this team like never before to reach our biggest fundraising goal to date: $500,000 – with every last bit of it from grassroots supporters like you! 

But to my shock and dismay, after both the senator and I personally asked, we didn't even get halfway to that goal. Not one bit close. I'll be damned if I let our nation's first and only Latina senator fall short of the resources she needs to win and protect our majority. 

That's why, as a last-ditch effort, I'm joining a group of Democrats to TRIPLE-MATCH all gifts to help us get to our $500,000 grassroots goal. Please, please, PLEASE John – will you rush a donation of $5 (becomes $15) to help Catherine pull ahead and protect Nevada and our Democratic Senate majority?

I hope you'll step up in this crucial moment. Thank you.
