John, I know what it'll take to defeat Sen. Grassley. You see, when I was 28, I took on another millionaire incumbent who had just won reelection.

People said I was too young to run for Congress, that I didn't have what it takes to take on a man like him, that a woman still paying off her student loans couldn't defeat a man who wrote his campaign a $500,000 check, that our grassroots team wasn't powerful enough to take on the deep-pocketed Washington elites backing my opponent. We proved them wrong.

That November, we moved the margin by 12 points and flipped his seat. I knew they were wrong because I know Iowa – and I know that together, we can win again in 2022.

Trust me, Iowa is ready to show Sen. Grassley the door and elect new leadership. I hear it on the road talking with voters, and I feel it in my bones. Don't just take it from me, though: data shows Sen. Grassley is at record-low approval ratings after only 27% of likely voters said that they want to send him back to Washington.

I know what it takes to defeat someone like Sen. Grassley because I've done it before. The only way to win a seat like this one is with hard work, a scrappy team and a powerful base of grassroots support. That's where you come in, John. To compete with GOP spending and reach the most critical voters, we need people like you to invest in our campaign.

So please, can you chip in your first donation of $5 or whatever you can spare before 11:59 p.m.? Every dollar gets us closer to victory on Election Day.

Thank you for having my back here.
