We have to respond

  Friend, After some highly disappointing, yet unsurprising behavior from Republican Senators during Ketanji Brown Jackson’s Supreme Court confirmation hearings, it’s clear some members of the GOP will go out of their way to curry favor with Donald Trump and his base. As GOP Senate ca…

Fwd: Join me in wishing Cory a Happy Birthday

  Friend, Did you see Barbra Streisand’s note asking you to sign Cory’s birthday card? Barbra’s known Cory for nearly 30 years — before he was even in elected office. She sent over a birthday card to make sure we all share some of the joy and positivity with Cory that he brings to wor…

Join me in wishing Cory a Happy Birthday

  Hey there, It’s Barbra Streisand, and I am reaching out for my friend Cory, who I first met when he was just 24! I’ve got a very special request for you, and I’m hoping that you can help me out. You see, it’s Cory’s 53rd birthday today, and I wanted to ask you personally if you’ll s…

Let me be clear

  Friend, It was a powerful and joyous occasion to vote alongside my colleagues to confirm Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court. Let me be clear — nothing can take away from this historic and monumental moment for our country that you made possible. Ketanji Brown Jackson’s confi…

$141,000,000

  We all knew it was coming, folks, but it’s still no less shocking to see: Mitch McConnell’s Super PAC just reserved $141 million in fall advertising across six battleground states to win back control of the Senate. In North Carolina ($27 million), Pennsylvania ($24 million), and Wi…

Cory’s fired up

  Team — we’re 8 days out from our end-of-month fundraising deadline, so before we go any further, can you pitch in $10? Coming off of the 2020 election where Democrats won back the White House and Senate, Cory’s more fired up than ever to defend our majority and help Democrats across…

We must keep the Senate blue

  Hey team, Cory said I should reach out. Our campaign’s must-reach flash fundraising deadline is tonight at midnight and we’re just short of reaching it. If a few more supporters like you step up, I know we can get there in time. Protecting Washington’s Senate seat and defending our …

Before you start your weekend...

  Folks, We know it's Saturday, but we already have some fundraising news from Republicans for this last FEC quarter. The National Republican Senatorial Committee raised $43 million over the past three months and $13.28 million during March alone — and we can basically guarantee that …

Can you help me finish the week strong?

  Happy Friday, folks! I know I’m looking forward to the weekend but before I let you go, I wanted to reach out. My first mid-month deadline of the new FEC quarter has honestly crept up on me with so much of my focus on other priorities. Can you help me finish the week strong and hit …

Re: tomorrow’s deadline

$23.82

  $23.82, folks. That was the average donation to our campaign last month. While it might seem like only a statistic to you, it means so much more to me. It represents a coalition of everyday Americans that share the values of justice, equality, and democracy — and are willing to chip…

Biden signs Post Office reform

  Friend, Last week, President Biden signed our bipartisan postal reform bill into law. But it’s not all roses with Donald Trump’s handpicked Postmaster General Louis DeJoy still running the agency. While our legislation protects Post Office services and finances, DeJoy is quietly pus…

The Child Tax Credit

April 9, 2022   Friends, It is almost tax day (April 18th!), and I know that for many Americans it is not necessarily a day to look forward to. Thanks to the American Rescue Plan – passed by Congress and signed into law by President Biden – many will feel the continued benefit of the historic expa…

I could really use your support before Trump’s rally

Folks, I’d like your personal input

ESPN just covered our virtual athletes summit

Let’s make history together

  Friend, In 2018, supporters like you from across the country put us on our way to winning the most votes of any Democratic campaign in the history of Georgia state elections at the time. In 2020, you put Georgia’s electoral votes in the blue column for the first time in nearly thre…

The Emmett Till Antilynching Act

  Folks, In 2018, I introduced legislation in the Senate with then-Senator Kamala Harris and other colleagues to make lynching a federal crime. This was our first attempt to pass this, but we were by no means the first in history to do so. For more than a century, Congress failed at 2…

Just thinking

  Is there anything we can say to convince you to donate to Cory’s campaign today, friend? What if we showed you Florida GOP Sen. Rick Scott’s entire 30-page plan for the Senate if Republicans flip the one seat they need to reinstall Mitch McConnell as Majority Leader? We won’t make y…

Re: Wisconsin Senate

We need to fight back
