Hey, my friend. It’s Ruben.
I am writing to let you know that I am going to be taking some time off from the Senate soon.
To be clear, it's not a bad thing.
In the middle of my campaign for Senate, my wife Sydney gave birth to our daughter, Isla. I took some time off the campaign trail then, because you never get these early moments back. Now, Sydney and I are expecting our second child together. Just like last time, I am committed to being a father and a husband first in these first few weeks. I want to make the most of it.
Now, the timing is not ideal. We’ve got a monthly deadline coming up on May 31st, and then we go straight into an FEC month in June — right when I’ll be going on parental leave. But I am going to be there for my wife and our growing family.
I made that decision hoping you'd help me close the gap. That you'd replace the fundraising calls I can't make with donations made in response to emails like this one.
This is a magical time for my family, but it's also an important week for our campaign. And I am hoping you'll help.
Can I count on you to contribute $ASK to my campaign before our fundraising deadline ends in just a few days, and before we head into an official FEC deadline month? I need your help, especially now, to help reach our goals while I'm with my family.

Thank you. Your support really means a lot to me.
Ruben
