Folks, I feel so lucky to be marking my 65th birthday, and I'm writing to you today with a request to help celebrate this milestone. 

Right now I’m ramping up my re-election campaign, and my team could really use your support: Will you split a donation of $20 or any amount that’s meaningful to you between Senator Michael Bennet and my campaign today?

Birthdays are often a time to reflect on our accomplishments — and think about what lies ahead. 

I’m incredibly proud of the many things I’ve been able to accomplish during my career of public service — some just in the past couple of years:

We’ve lowered the costs of both health care and energy with the Inflation Reduction Act. 

We made the biggest commitment to infrastructure since the Interstate Highway System Initiative in the Eisenhower Administration with the bipartisan infrastructure bill. 

We brought back American manufacturing jobs with the CHIPS Act.

We protected marriage equality with the Respect for Marriage Act.

And we passed the first major federal legislation in decades that will tackle the scourge of gun violence.

But there is so much still to be done. Can you help by splitting an online contribution right now?

Because we need more skilled workers, we should invest in job training, provide more affordable high-quality child care, and find a path to a work-based immigration reform bill. 

We need to expand access to mental health services, to battle addiction, and bring down health care costs for all. 

We need to fight for fundamental liberties, including the freedom to make your own reproductive decisions and the right to vote.

Virginia’s natural bounty — air, water, open space — needs protection from threats including climate change. 

And in a world with threats to democracies at home and abroad, we need a national security strategy that keeps us safe while building up the capacity of the U.S. and our allies to link arms against global threats of all kinds.

These challenges are exactly why I’m seeking re-election to the U.S. Senate in 2024. Will you help make sure I get there by splitting a donation with Michael Bennet and my campaign today?

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation to Tim Kaine & Michael Bennet will go through immediately:

As a Senator, my priority is to deliver for ALL Virginians. To listen to my constituents' thoughts and concerns, and to work across the aisle to solve the problems that keep us up at night. Because in a divided government, we need to work with Democrats and Republicans to get things done. 

My friends, we’ve got a big fight ahead of us, and we can’t take a single thing for granted. 

But if we work together, we can protect our Democratic majority in the Senate, we can help elect more Democrats all the way down the ballot throughout the Commonwealth, and we can secure victories for Virginians and all Americans.

Please split a donation today to help support my campaign for re-election so we can continue to lead with solutions, not stunts.

Thanks so much!

Tim Kaine
