We have to win these races to flip the Senate

John, Ben Ray Luján and Cal Cunningham are running in different races on opposite sides of the country, but they have two things in common: they will both be champions for their states and our nation in the Senate -- and we need to win both of these races to take back the Senate. Will you con…

Barbara Bollier

John, It’s official: Dr. Barbara Bollier is the Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate in Kansas. The most recent poll shows that Barbara is tied with her GOP opponent, Trump ally Roger Marshall. It’s clear she has what it takes to flip this seat in November. Kansas could be one of the four …

We need to win big in Colorado

John, John Hickenlooper has built a strong campaign in Colorado -- and there is no doubt that this race is one of Democrats’ best chances to flip a red seat blue and take back the Senate. But I’ll be frank -- the Republicans are throwing everything they’ve got at this race because they are de…

John, The end-of-month deadline is in just a few hours now, so we’ll get right to the point. Reaching our fundraising goal is absolutely critical to keeping this campaign on track, but right now we’re still a bit short of where we need to be to finish this month in the strongest position. Se…

A Democratic majority in the Senate

John, Lately, we’ve received some encouraging news about Democrats’ chances of flipping the Senate. But we can’t take anything for granted. There is just too much at stake this year. Over and over again, Mitch McConnell’s GOP Senate is failing to stand with families across the country, from o…

John, We are running out of time to meet Dick Durbin’s $20,000 end-of-month fundraising goal -- and we need this team to pull out all the stops to get this done. We’re facing a self-funding opponent who can write himself multi-million dollar checks, so keeping on track is more urgent than ever…
