This is a longer email about our work to Defend the Senate. I hope you’ll read it, then pitch in a few bucks to help protect our majority:

  John, It’s James Carville here. I need Democrats to listen up. I won’t beat around the bush: We have a tough path to defend the Senate. Mitch McConnell’s allies are pouring in tens of millions of dollars to attack Democrats, and the latest polls show it’s working. But we can’t give …
