re: our meeting

Hey – Sherrod again.

I made a tough call and I need to share it with you.

I just stepped out of a meeting with my team at HQ and it was clear we needed to mount a stronger response to the Republicans’ latest ad blitz than we originally planned. Crypto billionaires are blanketing Ohioans' TVs, screens, and radios with lies – to the tune of $30 million.

Republicans are outspending us in all of Ohio’s biggest cities, and we need to make a bold play to reach undecided voters before early voting kicks off in just 2 weeks' time. We need to spread our message far and wide, and we need $2.5M to do it.

Here’s the issue: we don’t have the money yet but I gave the green light to my team anyway.

With just 41 days to go until the election and a true toss-up race, everything we do could tip the balance one way or another. We’re walking a tightrope, and any mistake could knock us off balance.

Republicans and the crypto lobby are trying to buy this election. The only way we can get through it is with people like you stepping up.

We have a $250,000 budget gap to make up now, and it’d mean a lot if you can give any amount to help us get there. I’ve been blown away by the support folks have shown my campaign already today, and I hope you’ll join them. Please chip in any amount – truly any amount – to help us win battleground Ohio and flip the Senate.

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.
