With all the noise and political chaos we see on TV every day, it’s easy to forget that strong, independent leaders willing to find common ground can make a difference.
I am convinced that’s exactly what Washington desperately needs right now, and that is why I decided to run for the U.S. Senate.
I know we’ve reached out a lot recently. This has been a long, competitive race, and we’re seeing it heat up even more with nasty political attacks and massive outside spending. But we are almost at the finish line, and I need grassroots support more than ever to have a chance of winning this Senate race.
I’m reaching out today because it is time for all of us to stand up for what is RIGHT.
We cannot just think about what is best for Republicans or Democrats. This moment is too important, and the issues we are facing are too dire.
I’ve said many times before that we are creating a movement for the future of Maryland and America. I wholeheartedly believe we can move past this era of toxic politics and political chaos.
Many of our politicians today seem to forget (or ignore) the fact that they were elected to serve YOU.
We cannot allow this status quo to continue.
Public service isn’t about building personal power, getting rich in office, or attaining a prestigious title.
It is about solving issues, upholding the values that make our country great, and working to create a brighter future for our children.
With 33 days left until Election Day, I look forward to working for your vote every day of this campaign.
We’re the underdogs in this race—but with your help, we can beat the odds and send a message to Washington that’s heard all around the country this November.
If you believe that we desperately need leaders who will stand up to both parties and put the country first, then join our fight.
If you are sick and tired of the angry politics and gridlock, and you would rather see common sense bipartisan solutions that work for all the people of Maryland, then join our cause.
This is the final stretch, and I need you by my side.
When I launched my campaign for the U.S. Senate, I did so with a deep resolve to maintain the leadership style and principles that guided me during my eight years as governor.
Fifty years ago, my father, Maryland Congressman Larry Hogan Sr. made a tough decision. He became the first Republican to come out for the impeachment of President Nixon. He put aside party politics and his own personal considerations and stepped up to do the right thing for Maryland and the nation.
Today, Washington is completely broken because that kind of leadership and willingness to put country over party has become far too rare. But it’s not in my nature to sit back and watch the dysfunction continue without doing what I can to roll up my sleeves and get to work.
I’m under no illusion this will be an easy road. But I’m no stranger to uphill battles, and I know I can’t do it without your support.
I don't aspire to be a United States senator. I don’t need a title and I don’t need a job, but I’m more concerned than ever about the direction of the country and I have become more convinced that I can make a difference by taking the approach and style of leadership I had during my eight years as governor to Washington.
It’s no surprise this mindset has made me a target of the Washington partisans. Despite early polls showing a lead, I know I’m the underdog in this race. And that’s why your support TODAY is so crucial.
For eight years, we proved that the toxic politics that divide our nation didn’t need to divide our state, and we got results! Let’s get back to work again and send a message to Washington that will be heard loud and clear across the country!
