I wish I didn't have to write this email, John.

But Donald Trump just endorsed my far-right opponent, Eric Schmitt!

It gets even worse: He's hosted Mar-a-Lago fundraisers with Trump's MAGA megadonors that bring in more than a MILLION dollars in just one night! And Trump is sitting on a war chest of more than $100 MILLION that he can dip into at any moment to make sure his extremist candidates make it to Washington.

And now, just days before our final end-of-month deadline before the election, we're falling critically short of our grassroots goal.

With a rare open seat, we cannot miss this incredible opportunity to flip Missouri blue and stop another extremist from consolidating power in Washington. But this isn't just about defeating Eric Schmitt. It is about protecting everything we have fought so hard for. I’m not in this for ego, power, or money, and I won’t push a partisan agenda. I’ll be nobody’s senator but yours!

So please, John, with our Senate majority on the line in Missouri, will you make a grassroots donation to power my campaign through the final 12 days of this election? I'm counting on your support to respond to GOP attacks, compete with Eric Schmitt's megadonors, and keep our ads on the air.

Thank you so much for having my back.
