I hate to ask

  Here’s something I hate asking, folks, but I don’t know who else to turn to. With everything going on in Washington this week, I have been doing my best to spend as little time as possible thinking about our fundraising numbers, but I just heard from our finance team again — and it …

We’re behind

  Team — we’re going to keep this super short. At midnight tomorrow, we’ll close the books on our all-important fundraising deadline as we hit the halfway mark in the quarter. But we’re still behind on our target. Will you rush an emergency donation to fuel Tammy’s work in Washington …

I normally like to write a longer note, but I don’t think that’ll happen today.

  Folks — I normally like to take time to write a longer note, but I don’t think that’s going to happen. This week has been busy (and deeply concerning) in Washington, especially with the latest developments coming out of the critical work being done in the House. There are just too m…

The New York Times put it in black and white:

  Team — It's not very Wisconsin to be self-important, but The New York Times put it in black and white: Donald Trump is within the margin of error against his top Democratic rivals in our state. Wisconsin was the state that gave Trump the White House in 2016, and he won it by less th…

real quick

  Folks, I wanted to drop you a quick note ahead of Friday’s crucial mid-month fundraising deadline. Right now, we’re not on pace to reach our grassroots goal, and we need to hit this target to continue building on our work to help Democrats retake the Senate next year. Will you make …

Tammy’s gotten a lot done in the Senate

  Team — we’ll cut to the chase here: Can you make a contribution to support Tammy before our mid-month fundraising deadline this week? Every dollar you can give helps Tammy keep leading the tough fights in the Senate. If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, you…

Losing Tina

  Team, I wanted to take a moment to write to you about my good friend and colleague from the state next door, Minnesota Senator Tina Smith. Tina just won her special election last year, and she's up for re-election in 2020. She's the only Senate Democrat who has to run back-to-back l…

Veterans Day

Jeff Sessions announced he’s running for Senate

  Team, I have been working my tail off to help Democrats win across the map in 2020 — and I want to turn your attention to what’s going on in Alabama right now: Jeff Sessions announced he’s running for his old U.S. Senate seat and against my good friend, Doug Jones. Sessions is the l…

Fwd: Kentucky

  Wow, folks. This headline from the Washington Post is brutal: “Kentucky outcome embarrasses Trump and worries many Republicans ahead of 2020.” Democrats won big in deep-red Kentucky last night, and they can do it again next year by unseating Mitch McConnell — but only with y…

Kentucky

  Team, Kentucky just did the unthinkable and elected a Democratic governor — showing that when a strong candidate is on the ballot, Democrats can defeat incumbent Republicans in the reddest areas. That means Mitch McConnell is next on the chopping block. Amy McGrath is a former Marin…

Thank you

  Thank you, team. Without your support, we would not have reached our end-of-month goal for October, let alone muster the resources we’ll need for Democrats to take back the Senate next year. There’s a lot at stake in 2020, team. Americans will face a string of major decisions that w…

eek!

  We’re spooked, folks — and not just because it’s Halloween. Our fundraising numbers are scaaaary low this month. October has been pretty terrible for this sort of thing. If we don’t hit our end-of-month fundraising goal by midnight, we won’t have the resources we need to keep Tammy …

Not looking good

  I’ll make this quick. I’m writing to you now to ask if you’ll make a contribution to my campaign. We’re approaching the end of the month and coming up on our most important fundraising deadline for the quarter so far. The way things are currently looking, we may fall short of our on…

We need to send a message

I’m about to ask you to make a contribution

  There was an overwhelming response to Tammy’s email yesterday, folks. So many of you stepped up after reading her story — it was truly inspiring. We’re so proud to have you on the team. The thing is, we’re finding ourselves just a bit behind on our fundraising goal for the month. So…

New poll shows the Senate race in Michigan is tied

Before I explain

If I’m being honest...

  Team — Fundraising is my least favorite part of this job, but just a few moments from now I’m going to have to ask you to make a donation before midnight. Give me a chance to explain. I don’t ask for your hard-earned dollars this often because I enjoy it. I do it because Republicans…

Two photos

  Folks — recognize this guy? That’s Mitch McConnell. His super PAC and dark money network are stockpiling a $190 million war chest to attack Democrats in the months ahead. Why? Because he knows we have what it takes to win back control of the Senate and finally end his stranglehold …
