You deserve an explanation

Friend --

Our campaign has sent a lot of fundraising emails lately -- more than I wish we had to send. So I wanted to take a moment to explain what these messages mean to our campaign, and why you're seeing more of them from us (and likely many others) than usual.

In just a few days, we close the books on the first official quarterly FEC fundraising deadline of our campaign for Senate.

When it ends, we'll report how much money we've raised between January 1st and March 31st, 2024 and those results will be looked at with a fine-tooth comb by the press, our opponents, and even potential allies.

What we report is widely viewed as an indicator of our campaign's strength. The numbers have the ability to invite attacks if opponents think we are weak or encourage our allies to do more to help us win if they are strong.

But the numbers we want to reach are also very real goals. They are numbers we need to reach in order to win.

So when you see us rising in the polls, when you see us release our ads, and when you see us WIN this race and hopefully hold the Senate, please know emails like this and the response to them are a huge part of how it happens.

Can you please use this link to contribute $10 (or more if you can) directly to Chuck Schumer and my campaign for U.S. Senate in Michigan? I would not ask if these emails and the response to them were not so important to our campaign.

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately and be split evenly between Chuck Schumer and Elissa Slotkin:

Thank you for your support, and for bearing with these emails. They are so important.
