I have an urgent update, John:

Ron DeSantis will be in Ohio TOMORROW to campaign for JD Vance and rally their right-wing base against us.

We’re expecting a barrage of attacks to come our way. Rush a split contribution of $25 or more to help us raise $100,000 toward our emergency Rapid Response Fund now >>

After multiple polls showed me beating my ultra-conservative opponent, Republicans started panicking. National Republicans unleashed a $5 million ad campaign against me and now they’re sending in the calvary to save JD’s floundering campaign.

They know Senate control hinges on what happens here in Ohio, so they’ll do whatever it takes to win this race. This is the beginning of a new effort to tear down our campaign, and we’re expecting DeSantis to attack me personally.

Now look, I’m not afraid of some schoolyard bullies—but Mitch McConnell has virtually unlimited resources to use against us and no shortage of right-wing puppets to fire up their extremist base.

We have to fight back today. The only way we can counter the GOP’s dirty tricks is by collecting as many grassroots donations as possible. So we’ve set an emergency goal of raising $100,000, and we need you to make a contribution of any amount to help us get there:

Can I count on you to make an urgent donation of $25 or more to my campaign and BACKROADS PAC right now?

We can win this race, flip Ohio blue, and expand the Democratic Senate majority, but only if you’re with us. That’s why your donation is so important, especially today.
