Hello,

The January 6th insurrection and the GOP’s feckless decision to stand by Donald J. Trump is proof enough: There is a Cold War raging for the future of our democracy, and ‘General’ McConnell and ‘Lieutenant’ Grassley are fighting for the wrong side.

I served our country for nearly 4 decades in the U.S. Navy. I swore an oath to defend our Constitution against all threats – foreign and domestic. I’m running for Senate against Chuck Grassley because I can’t think of anything more un-American than gleefully accepting the endorsement of a deranged man who tried to overthrow 232 years of peaceful transfer of power. It’s time to call it what it was: Treason.

A brand-new poll from the gold-standard Des Moines Register shows me in a statistical TIE with Grassley. We can win. The pundits say we must win if we’re going to expand our Democratic Senate majority. But Grassley is slinging mud at me on TV across the entire state and even attacking my military service, and I’m not taking a dime of corporate PAC money, so I need your help.

We need to raise another $250,000 to fully fund our Get-Out-The-Vote efforts, but right now we’re still dangerously short. That's why a group of donors is 5X MATCHING ALL GIFTS for the first time ever to help us win and send Grassley packing.

If I’m going to send Chuck Grassley packing and turn Iowa blue, I’m counting on grassroots donors like you to give every dollar you can afford right now and have it go FIVE TIMES as far:

Please, will you chip in $5 or more right now – whatever you can spare before our GOTV deadline – and get it 5X MATCHED to help me defeat Chuck Grassley, turn Iowa blue, and protect our Democratic majority in the Senate? [[link removed]]

When I defeat Chuck Grassley on Election Day, I’ll be the most senior military person ever-elected to the U.S. Senate. You can be sure I’ll always fight to protect our democracy.

I am so grateful for your support,
