28 and 500

  John, Each month we set a goal that helps our team build up the necessary resources to continue defending Democrats across the country. There are only 28 days in February, so the end of the month is fast-approaching. We need to pick up the pace to stay on track towards hitting our f…

Sorry

  Sorry to bother you on a Saturday, John, but it’s important. The 2022 midterm elections are happening RIGHT NOW. We’re seeing far-right candidates pop up all across the map. They’ve started hiring staff, fundraising, and are building long-term plans to defeat Democrats and regain th…

One loss puts McConnell back in power

  John, We’re not going to sugarcoat it: February has been a tough month for fundraising, and we need to get back on track. If we don’t turn things around immediately, we risk leaving our Democratic candidates vulnerable to nasty attacks from Mitch McConnell and right-wing super PACs.…

re: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris

  FIRST: Joe Biden and Kamala Harris became the first Democrats to win Georgia in almost three decades. THEN: Democrats Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock flipped both Republican-held Senate seats in the state’s January runoff elections, handing Democrats control of the Senate. NOW: With …

An explanation

  John, I’m about to explain why it’s so important that you support the important work of Defend the Senate, but first — if you can — please rush a contribution of any amount to help protect our majority. Mitch McConnell and the Republican Party are up to no good once again. After vot…

re: acquittal

  John, Yesterday’s impeachment vote to acquit Donald Trump was incredibly disappointing. 43 Republican Senators once again voted against our democracy, put their party over our country, and set a dangerous precedent. Donald Trump should have been convicted, and our Democratic Senator…

Far-right extremists

  John, Last week, radical right-wing Republican Josh Mandel jumped into the race for the open Ohio Senate seat vowing to continue to fight for Donald Trump’s agenda. These races have already started, and the 2022 midterms are closer than you think. That’s why this moment is so critic…

brutally honest

It’s 50-50

If McConnell senses any weakness

  Awful news, John. We just finished crunching the numbers, and we missed our end-of-month goal on Sunday. If McConnell and his Republican allies start to sense any weakness in our fundraising, they’ll attack our Democratic candidates with everything they’ve got. That’s why we need a …

  Time is running out to donate before our FIRST end-of-month deadline of the year. Democrats and Republicans each hold 50 seats in the U.S. Senate, so we cannot afford to lose even ONE SEAT. Mitch McConnell and his Republican yes-men are going to be on the attack, and we need to pre…
