This isn’t the email I wanted to send...

1. Thanks to Republicans' petty partisan games, the government has been shut down for 34 days.


2. If we’re going to get the government working for the people again, we have to take back the Senate — and Democrats need to flip 4 SEATS to do it.


3. We missed our critical end-of-month fundraising goal over the weekend — but if we can raise another $6,932 today, we can make up the difference.

As DSCC Chair, I’m working day and night to help Democrats across the country win. But if we miss this goal, we won’t have the resources we need to support them. So please, chip in whatever you can before midnight:

Republicans forced this shutdown. They’re making federal workers go without pay, delaying vital services and putting health care and food assistance for millions at risk.

We refuse to let them get away with this. But if we’re going to elect leaders who will take back the Senate and hold them accountable, we need Democrats like you on our team.

So please, chip in whatever you can today to help us close our $6,932 gap before midnight:

Together,

Kirsten Gillibrand
