John, it’s former US Senator Doug Jones.

Eight years ago, we made history—winning a Senate race here in Alabama that nobody expected us to.

On that unforgettable night eight years ago, you stood up and said something simple, something powerful: We can do better.

We can do better than one party rule, than an affordability crisis, and a state government that works for politicians, not the people.

So I’m taking the next step.

Many of you have been asking me what I’m up to next, so I wanted you to hear this announcement first—I’m running for Governor of the state of Alabama.

I’m running because Alabama deserves a governor who listens to us, who fights for us, and who actually cares about us.

We can make history again, but I need your help.

I need 5,000 Americans to join our movement today as a Founding Donor. Can I count on you to make a split donation to become a part of my campaign and help candidates like me win across the country?

Eight years ago, you sent that message to the entire country. You showed them that Alabama can surprise people. That Alabama can defy expectations.

Now is the time to do it again.

Thank you,

Doug Jones
