[ [link removed] ]TAMMY BALDWIN FOR SENATE

Can I share something with you, friend?

When I first ran for Congress in 1997, no one thought I could win —
especially when an extremely popular challenger jumped into the race.

I remember huddling with one of my staffers at the time, and she said,
“Well Tammy, maybe you want to rethink what you’re doing because it’s
going to be tough.”

I looked her right in the eye and asked, “Do you think I should wait my
turn?”

The next thing I said was this: I believe that women have to run —
especially when it’s hard — and not wait for our turn. We can’t wait until
we get a tap on our shoulder or we’ll never get anywhere.

I ended up winning that race and became the very first woman elected to
the House of Representatives from Wisconsin. It wouldn’t be the last time
this team would make history.

When I ran for U.S. Senate in 2012, folks like you fought alongside me —
even as some others wrote us off. You helped me become the first woman
elected to the chamber from our state and the first openly gay Senator in
our nation’s history.

I understood that this extraordinary opportunity needed to be used to make
a difference in people's lives, and I’ve fought to do that every single
day since.

The reason I’m telling you all of this is because I want you to know that
I ran for office not to make history, but to make a difference. And folks
like you supported me because you wanted to make a difference, too.

Together, I know we will continue to fight for affordable health care, for
living wages, to protect reproductive health care access, and for everyone
who has been written off, counted out, or left behind. Now, I'm asking you
to keep going.

[ [link removed] ]Will you double down on your commitment to the movement that will
continue to fight for what’s right? With my Senate seat up for re-election
next year, I would appreciate your contribution.
