Jim,

Yesterday, Missy Hughes made a hard choice.

She decided to suspend her campaign for Governor and announced she is endorsing my campaign.

Missy spent years as head of Wisconsin's Economic Development Corporation, helping businesses grow and communities thrive all across our state. She didn't have to step aside. She didn't have to put her name behind anyone else's campaign.

But she did, because she knows what's at stake.

I've known Missy for years, and I've always admired how she leads: with clear eyes, hard work, and a relentless focus on getting things done for Wisconsin families. That's the spirit that wins races. And it's exactly the kind of partner I want by my side as we take on Tom Tiffany and Donald Trump’s MAGA agenda this November.

Here's the thing about a moment like this: it only matters if we make the most of it.

Missy's endorsement gives us momentum. But momentum doesn't pay for ads, organizers, or the work it takes to reach every corner of this state — from Trempealeau to Two Rivers, from Reedsburg to Rhinelander.

That’s why what we raise in the next 48 hours will determine if our momentum in this race is real and we have the grassroots support to wage an aggressive Get out the Vote campaign in the final weeks of this race.

Will you chip in $5 or whatever you can today to help us build on this momentum and take the fight to Tom Tiffany?
