Hi John. It's Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, your DSCC Chair.

Trump's blatantly political attack on ActBlue is more than just a
roadblock to our mission of taking back the Senate -- it's designed to
undermine democratic participation.

In a moment I'd like to tell you a story, but first I need to ask you
something very important: [ [link removed] ]Will you pitch in $5 (tripled
to become $15) through ActBlue to fuel our fight to defeat
Trump's Senate allies by electing Democrats to the Senate? This moment
demands a strong response so we can win the power to hold him
accountable.

In August of 2006, I was a first-time candidate, bringing my 3-year-old
son across a sprawling House district I'd been warned had "more cows
than Democrats." Few really gave me much of a shot in the beginning --
but our country needed change, and our entrenched Republican congressman
wasn't delivering it.

Then a poll dropped. Down nearly 20 points, with Election Day looming.

People were ready to count me out, but it was grassroots donations from
supporters giving just $5 or $10 that boosted my campaign against a
powerful incumbent.

Because of ActBlue, grassroots donors were able to lend a hand to me and
countless Democrats across the nation -- powering us not just to
compete, but to WIN against the most powerful of the powerful. And
that's exactly why Trump wants to take ActBlue away from you.

Trump's order is an attempt to destroy the grassroots engine that powers
today's Democratic Party -- from our presidents like Barack Obama and
Joe Biden to our Senate candidates to local school board contenders in
communities big and small.

He wants to further empower the corrupt billionaires who already control
his administration. And why wouldn't Trump want that, with Elon Musk
spending freely to elect Republicans?

It takes millions of Democrats like you, pitching in a few dollars at a
time, just to be able to compete with them. But I am confident that no
matter what Trump does or tries to do to us, we WILL come together and
win.

Don't let Donald Trump destroy the grassroots engine of our entire
democracy: [ [link removed] ]If we take back the Senate, we'll win the power to do what
Republicans won't -- hold Trump to account. So please, pitch in
$5 (becomes $15) before our URGENT
end-of-month deadline to flip the Senate blue >>

We need your help to fight for the Senate. If you've saved your payment
info with ActBlue Express, your donation will be processed immediately.

With gratitude,

Kirsten
