I love this job — being your voice and representing Connecticut in the U.S. Senate means the world to me. I never imagined as a kid that I’d have the honor of serving my home state in this position. I don’t take it for granted for a single second. I understand that it’s a privilege to be leading this fight for our shared progressive values. And most of all, I know how lucky I am to have your support — because none of this would be possible without it. I’ve fought tough campaigns — from flipping a seat from a 24-year incumbent to beating a self-funding billionaire to fending off the gun lobby. But none of that happens without people like you. I am in this position today — leading the anti-gun violence movement — because of you. I also know that I am lucky among my colleagues because of the grassroots movement we’ve built. While so many of them spend every day begging for money on the phones, I get to focus on the job you elected me to do. That’s a direct result of your contributions. I made the bet that if I invested in building a movement of people, that you would have my back when it matters. So to be honest, it’s not luck that creates meaningful change it’s you.

With my name on the ballot this year and a deadline later this month, your support matters a lot.]( [CONTRIBUTE]( Thank you for whatever bit of your time or treasure you can spare.
