What $5 can make happen

Hi,

We’ll be direct: Today, we’re asking you to chip in $5 to Sherrod Brown’s Senate campaign in Ohio.

While we know that $5 might not feel like it can make a difference in a race this big and expensive, let us explain why that's not true – and why the Republican establishment doesn't want you to know why.

You see, as you read this, thousands of other folks like you are choosing to make their first donation, because they believe in the movement we’re building. Those gifts add up fast when everyone is pitching in.

So please:

Chip in $5 because the GOP is spending $131 million to defeat Sherrod – and experts predict this will be the most expensive Senate race ever.

Chip in $5 because, given the recent Supreme Court ruling on campaign finance law, dark-money groups and wealthy megadonors like Elon Musk will have more power and influence than ever before.

Chip in $5 because if we lose in Ohio, we’ll lose our best shot at taking back the Senate.

Chip in $5 because it’s the most strategic donation you can make right now to break the GOP’s hold on Washington and protect the future of our democracy.

Sherrod is counting on you. Will you chip in for the first time today to win in Ohio and flip the Senate?

DONATE

Thank you,

Team Sherrod

Note: This email only reflects donations made online with this email address. If you've made a previous contribution via check or with a different email address/phone number, you may not see it here – but know that Sherrod and our entire team are deeply grateful for your support.

When you love your country, you fight for the people who make it work.

Hey there! It's Sherrod Brown.

There's nobody fighting for Ohioans in the U.S. Senate right now, and I won't sit on the sidelines while working people get screwed over by large corporations and wealthy political donors.

If you work hard, you should be able to afford a decent life. But the reality is, life is too expensive. Costs are going up. Wages are staying stagnant. Working people are working harder than ever before, and they're not getting their share of the profit.

This campaign is all about changing that – and election analysts say we have a strong shot at winning in November.

But I'll need your help to pull it off: My opponent is a Washington insider being propped up by the Republican establishment, and he's got virtually unlimited resources.

That's not how our campaign works. We're a grassroots movement, and that means we rely on ordinary people chipping in a couple bucks. If you're able, please make a donation of any amount today. It could be what helps us flip Ohio and the Senate.

If you'd like to receive exclusive updates from my team, you can text "OHIO" to 64054.

Thank you.
