The race to defeat Ted Cruz doesn't just concern Texans – it concerns the future of our democracy. Our country can't handle six more years of Ted Cruz, his attacks on reproductive freedoms, his dismantling of our fundamental voting rights, and his endless self-centered antics. He's proven time and time again that his only loyalty is to himself, not the people he's supposed to represent. It's time to send him packing. Not only because Texans deserve so much better – but because if Colin wins, Democrats are virtually guaranteed to retain control of the Senate, which is our last line of defense against the far right. Colin can win this – Cruz won by just 2.6% of the vote in 2018. Election experts know it, and recent polling numbers show them TIED. But he'll need a massive movement of grassroots supporters behind him to help him reach voters, pull ahead, and win. That starts today with you, {NAME}. Colin needs to raise $65,000 by midnight tonight so that he can stay on track to reach enough voters and win in November. That's why I'm personally asking: [Will you donate $5 right now to Brady PAC and to power Colin's campaign to victory and defeat Ted Cruz?
