Folks, I hate coming to you with bad news, so I’ll just say it: we missed our mid-month goal yesterday.

These fundraising goals aren’t just numbers on a spreadsheet. Each dollar we raise goes directly into our organizing program – the work that persuades voters to turn out in November.

That’s why I’m asking you personally: can I count on you to be 1 of 5 people from your area to chip in $10 to help us close the gap in the next 5 hours? We’re so close!

Strong ground games win elections, full stop. Luckily, that makes the choice in front of us simple:

We can invest in this organizing work now, turn out voters in November, and win.

Or we can look back after Election Day, wishing we had done more to stop Republicans from keeping the Senate majority.

I know what option I’m picking, and I hope you’ll join me.

We still have one last chance to make up for lost ground today, but we have to move fast to get it done. Will you rush in $5, $10, or $25 to help us get back on track to hit our goals, build a strong organizing program, and flip the Senate?

With gratitude,

Kirsten Gillibrand
