Please, stick around and let us explain why this request and your donation are so important. Here’s the truth: We hit our April fundraising deadline next Tuesday, and close the books on the most important month of this campaign so far. We’ve had a number of inflection points in this race — our launch, Kari Lake’s launch, Kyrsten Sinema’s decision… but this month is when the campaign really got serious. The polls show Ruben and Kari Lake neck-and-neck. Everyone is watching Arizona after the state fell under one of the most extreme abortion bans in the nation. And Kari Lake started reeling in millions of dollars — the kind of money that could defeat Ruben if we’re not careful. Thanks to you, we’re in a strong position to win. But if we slack off, if we lose momentum, and if Kari Lake keeps gaining on us, it could be a major problem. She could swamp us in attack ads, and we could lose the edge in Arizona. She could win. Really. To keep pace with our goals and win, we have to hit our goal this month. There’s no other path to victory. So please, we’re asking you for your help. And we would not ask if it were not so incredibly important.
