re: Senate control...

We can't just sit back and watch Mitch McConnell dismantle our progress. To create change in America, we must flip the Senate. ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ 
Friend -- Growing up, my parents struggled to make ends meet. My mom was a librarian and my dad was a shipyard worker who often worked overtime to help raise six kids. I remember his calloused hands and worn boots. I remember their conversations about how they would pay the bills and keep a roof over our heads.

Working-class families like ours had a tough time getting ahead in America. And Republicans are making it even harder for today's families. That is why I am reaching out to you now.

Senate Democrats are fighting back against Republicans' destructive agenda, but right now they are coming up on a crucial FEC deadline and they are still short of their fundraising goal. Will you chip in a gift of $5 (becomes $20) to help them close the gap and make sure they have the resources they need to flip the Senate?

We cannot just sit back while Mitch McConnell dismantles the progress we've fought so hard for. Republicans are sabotaging our health care, refusing to secure U.S. elections, and rather than give working folks a break, they're peddling tax relief for the wealthiest Americans.

But we can change all that by electing Democrats at every level. It all depends upon what we do now, together.

To create change in America, we must put all our energy, enthusiasm, and yes, some money, into winning the Senate. It will be a tough fight, but experts confirm we can flip control.

With trailblazing Senate candidates like my friend Reverend Raphael Warnock right here in Georgia, we are in good hands. But they can't do it alone. They need our support before Sunday's crucial FEC deadline, and right now your donation will go even further because every gift is being triple-matched!

So I'm asking: Will you make a triple-matched $5 contribution (worth $20) right now -- before Sunday's deadline -- to help Democrats win key races across the country and flip the Senate? With your help, we can make America a place where anyone can get ahead.

Thanks for standing with me,

Stacey Abrams
