50-50

  “McConnell Says ‘100%’ of His Focus Is on Blocking Biden Agenda” — Wall Street Journal As you know, our 50-50 Senate majority is fragile. Losing just one seat could change everything and put Mitch McConnell back in the driver’s seat — calling all the shots, stifling progress, and al…

My pre-existing condition

  Hello, I was only nine years old when I was diagnosed with a serious illness and spent three months in the hospital. When I got better, my grandparents who raised me looked for an insurance policy that would cover me in the future. Unfortunately, due to my previous illness, they cou…

Re: Zoom

  Hi there — Before I head back to Washington next week, I’ll be getting on a Zoom call with my team to discuss our priorities and goals. I could really use your help. My number one priority is ensuring Washington is working for folks like you. And the best way I can do that is by ask…

I have no choice

  I hate these emails as much as you do, but I really have no choice at the moment. I had to reach out to you one last time today. With so much going on in our country, I have spent very little time worrying about our fundraising, but I know the team reached out to you earlier today a…

typo

  Hate to bug you, but we’re significantly behind on our critical end-of-month goal. Unless we can collect a few more grassroots donations by midnight, we'll fall short. So, we’re asking every person reading this email to chip in just $1 — not a typo! — to help put us over the edge be…

Bad news

  Bad news: According to my team, fewer people have opened these messages or made donations to our campaign over the past few weeks. I don't want to alarm you, but that's a serious problem... especially with our razor-thin Senate majority. We already know Wisconsin will be a battlegro…

honestly

  Hello — To be honest, fundraising has been really rough this month. My team says it’s likely we’ll miss our April fundraising goal this Friday. Look, I get it. After four years of Donald Trump’s disastrous presidency, folks are tuning out now that we have a Democrat in the White Hou…

An explanation

  Hi folks, I’m about to ask you to chip in toward our end-of-month deadline, but first, I hope you will give me a chance to explain why this request is so important, especially today. You may not know this, but emails like this one are a large, essential part of our budget — keeping …

I get this question a lot

  Hi there — There’s a lot of money in politics — from the super PACs in Mitch McConnell’s back pocket trying to swing elections to the shady special interests calling all the shots in Washington. So, I’m not surprised when folks ask me: Who powers our campaign? That answer isn’t comp…

Re: COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act

Last time

Re: campaign update

  Hey team, While Tammy’s in Washington fighting her heart out to pass critical legislation in the Senate, it’s our job to keep things up and running back home in Wisconsin. You see, our campaign is about more than just re-electing Tammy to the Senate — although that’s a big part of i…

nobody thought I would win

  Hey, this email is a bit longer than what I would usually send, but I hope you’ll take the time to read it. When I first ran for Congress in 1997, nobody thought I would win, especially when an extremely popular challenger jumped into the race — who won his last election in a landsl…

Shortest email you will read all day

Three things you should know

For the People Act
