Annie Comes Home: Need to change things up today.

Thursday, September 17, 2026

Need to change things up today.

I want to be very transparent with you.

I am National Republicans' top target. They're coming after me with everything they’ve got.

Over the past few weeks, billionaire donors like Elon Musk, tech scion Peter Thiel, and dark-money groups have dumped millions into Ohio to crush our momentum – because if we lose here, we’ll lose our shot at taking back the Senate and breaking Republicans’ grip on power.

Total GOP spending in this race has now reached over $162 million.

I know I ask a lot of this team, but I hope you know I wouldn’t be reaching out if it weren’t so important. And right now, it is: We just missed our mid-month fundraising goal, and we have less than two weeks until the final quarterly FEC deadline of this election – when we’ll have to report our fundraising numbers for everyone to see.

This is our wake up call to step it up.

The only way we can get back on track is with a massive surge of grassroots support from folks like you, so I need to try something different today. I’m lowering my ask to just $1 in the hopes that every person reading this chips in so we can build back our momentum.

Please, will you chip in $1 to help me flip Ohio, take back the Senate, and show the GOP’s dark-money interests the powerful grassroots movement they’re up against?

Thank you so much. I’m grateful to have you by my side in this fight.

Sherrod Brown

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.

Thank you.
