My announcement

Jack, Today I am officially announcing that I am withdrawing from the race for United States Senate. This has been one of the most difficult decisions that I have ever had to make, but it was also one that had to be made. Over these past few months, while criss-crossing the state of Arkansas, …

Today is Veterans Day

Jack, Today is Veterans Day. Today we honor our veterans for everything they have sacrificed and all they've given to our country. But this Veterans Day is about more than just thanking our vets. It's about showing all of our veterans that we have recommitted ourselves to making sure their int…

We must protect our care

Jack, What we learned yesterday is heartbreaking. Republicans like Tom Cotton have spent their entire careers trying to strip healthcare from our children in America, and their plan so far has been successful. We can't sit back and let Republicans rip away healthcare from even more American…

What's happening on the East Coast

Jack, Virginians go to the polls today. With redistricting on the line, this election could decide the fate of Virginia for the next decade. What happens in Virginia today, it can and will be a blueprint for how we can win in 2020, no matter the results of the election. We're setting a g…

Jack, Today, I officially filed to run for Senate in 2020 against Tom Cotton. pHoto Now more than ever, it's critical that I have your support so we can demonstrate we have what it takes to win. It's going to take all of us to beat Tom Cotton. If you're with me, pitch in $5 or more so we …

This team continues to impress me.

Jack, I have some very exciting news - We reached our end-of-month goal! This is huge! By meeting this goal, we have sent a message to Tom Cotton and the GOP machine that we are ready to take them on. I am so grateful to have you on my team. We are strong and we have shown the people of Ark…

I'm asking you personally, Jack

Jack, I am so grateful to all of you who have stood with us this week. We are so close to our goal, but we are not there yet. We are only $2,452 away, but if we don't get to our end-of-month goal by midnight tonight, Tom Cotton will think he has this election in the bag. We can't afford six…

A Halloween fright!

Jack, what's scarier than ghosts, vampires, and werewolves? Another six years of Tom Cotton in the Senate. Arkansas deserves better representation than Tom Cotton, Jack. We can't have another six years of Tom Cotton's tricks (not treats). Our average donation is $20, and that's a sign of a…

Before midnight tomorrow.

Jack, Let's be honest, we are up against a lot in this race. Tom Cotton has a war chest of over $2 million, a slew of billionaire mega-donors, and an army of corporate PACs behind him. Now you might be wondering, what do we have? We have the support of everyday grassroots donors who want to…

Hi, Jack. Josh's campaign manager here. I'm going to keep this short because it's important that you read it. I've never been afraid of hard work, Jack, and neither is Josh, but our team can't do it alone. I need your help to elect Josh to the Senate. And that means hitting our grassroots fund…

Where does Tom Cotton's loyalty lie?

Let's be clear, Jack: Tom Cotton isn't just bad for Arkansas. He's terrible for the entire country. Tom Cotton signed on to Senator Lindsey Graham's resolution that denounces the impeachment inquiry -- and now we know where his loyalty lies. Time and time again, Cotton has shown his true color…

I'm worried

Arkansans are frustrated, Jack. Our political leaders like Tom Cotton in Washington have broken our trust -- telling the folks back home that they are looking out for you and then turning around and voting against your interests is the Washington way of doing things. Let me be clear -- I'm not…

We can't abandon our allies

Jack, Trump's decision to abandon our Kurdish allies and pull U.S. troops out of Syria has been a disaster. Turkey has already launched an offensive attack against the Kurds. As if that wasn't enough, Trump's reckless move created a power vacuum in the Middle East -- giving his buddy Putin more p…

I will fight to protect reproductive rights

Jack, Earlier this month, the Supreme Court decided to take up an Alabama case that could set a precedent for overturning Roe v. Wade. The Alabama law in question requires any physician performing an abortion in Alabama to have 'admitting privileges' at a nearby hospital -- which is historical…

We want to give you a quick update on our weekly fundraising. Yesterday, grassroots donors like you stepped up in a major way, and we're closer than ever to hitting our goal. Here's the thing, Jack: We can't stop pushing now. Tom Cotton and national Republicans are hoping that people give up on p…

We can't give up on Arkansas

I'll be blunt: Political insiders want to write off Arkansas. They'll tell you that Arkansas is "ruby red," and there is no hope for Democrats in 2020. But, Jack, they're missing something special. Our grassroots movement is growing stronger than anyone ever imagined. Now we have a chance to p…

10,000 signers to protect reproductive rights

Commit to flipping the Senate

Jack, Five years ago, Tom Cotton left Arkansas, and he's never looked back. It's been hard to watch as he's allowed a trade war to decimate our family farms, voted to strip healthcare away from Arkansans with pre-existing conditions, and supported giving tax breaks to the wealthiest in America…

We're just five hours away from our midnight deadline, Jack, and I'm worried we won't hit our deadline. We can't afford to fall short of our end-of-quarter fundraising goal at this critical moment.

We need to close this fundraising gap.

We'll be blunt, Jack. We are still short $8,423 -- and we need to close this gap before the deadline at midnight tonight. If Democrats are going to take back control of the Senate, we have to look beyond traditional battleground states to widen the playing field and take on Republicans like To…

We need to meet our goal.

Political insiders want to make you believe we can't win this race. Arkansas is just "too red." Here's the truth, Jack: We live in a red state where a majority of the voters are not voting for Republicans. Or for Democrats. They're not voting at all. To win, we have to go talk to those voters, an…
