Friend – I just stepped off the stage after debating my Trump-endorsed opponent.

I was unsurprised that my opponent launched misleading and unfounded attacks against me, but here’s the truth I hope you’ll take to heart: I’m proud of the work I’ve done here to improve the lives of the people of Connecticut, and I’ll never stop fighting to do what’s right for the people of this great state.

Now, with only six days left of this campaign, I’m asking you to double down with me and do everything we can to protect this seat. Remember, Mitch McConnell only needs to flip one seat to take back Senate control and implement his party’s plan to deny so many Americans the freedoms they cherish. The GOP is desperate to control the Senate and our nation’s future. In this final week, Rick Scott and the NRSC have just dumped almost $100,000 in Connecticut to fund more of my opponent’s nasty, misleading ads.

To fight back, we set a goal to raise $10,000 after the debate – and I’m counting on your support to get there. So please, Friend, rush $5 or whatever you can spare to help me hit this goal, win re-election, and protect Democratic control of the Senate.

Thank you,

Dick
