Pamela, It's official: former Marine and anti-monopoly advocate Lucas Kunce announced he's running to represent Missouri in the United States Senate. The last time this Senate seat was up, it was decided by just three points — less than 80,000 votes. This is a race that Democrats can win. Building a movement and winning this race won't be easy but, if anyone can do it, Lucas can. Serving in the United States Marine Corps taught him how to lead, how to organize, and how to fight. He knows how to win battles like this. Lucas also knows the problems Missourians face every day because he's faced them himself, from crushing medical debt and struggling to afford a college education to watching our communities get crushed under the weight of big businesses. Those experiences are why Lucas has devoted himself to fighting corporate monopoly power. It's why he's taken on Big Ag, Big Tech, pharmaceutical cartels, and Wall Street profiteers. And it's why he's going to keep taking them on as a United States Senator. But, for this to work, we need as many folks as possible stepping in and joining this campaign, so we need your help today. Will you add your name and sign on to endorse Lucas's campaign for Senate? It's only been two weeks, but we've already received a huge groundswell of attention and support. So far, our supporters have helped us raise more than $150,000 to kick this campaign off. And folks across the country are taking notice, from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, Kansas City Star, and Ozark Radio News to The Hill and the Associated Press. HuffPost even called Lucas "a crusader against corporate consolidation." But this is just the start. Our next steps are to build a grassroots movement that organizes in every city, town, village, and neighborhood all across Missouri. Folks are rushing to help us build our campaign because, unlike so many of our politicians, Lucas isn't busy courting the support of corporate PACs. He doesn't want their money, and he won't take their checks. Instead, Lucas is focused on building a people-powered, grassroots campaign fueled by folks like you pitching in and supporting us. Help us grow that movement by signing on to endorse Lucas Kunce for Senate today! We'll follow up soon with more ways you can get involved, lend your support, and help send a "crusader against corporate consolidation" to represent Missouri in the Senate. Thanks, Team Lucas Kunce |
