difficult decisions.

The team had to make a pretty difficult decision yesterday, and I thought you should know about it. ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ ‌ Hey there, friend, it's Ruben again. This is one of the last times we’ll reach out before our deadline at midnight tonight. The team had to make a pretty difficult decision this weekend, and I thought you should know about it. It’s no secret that Kari Lake launched her campaign last month. She did it with the endorsement of the big guy: Trump himself. But this month, she’s started rallying some support in the Senate GOP. They even rolled out an attack ad against me right before Thanksgiving. All this happened as our campaign donations started falling off. And today — our November deadline day — we’re well behind. That’s bad news. Kari Lake, Trump, the Senate GOP, if any of them see weakness from us, they will pile on with everything they’ve got. Without getting into too much detail, there are a number of investments we have to make so we can stay in the fight. We didn’t think we’d have to pull the trigger on those for a few months now, but our timeline needed to move up because of the attack ads coming our way. So we gave the green light. We approved the budget. And now we have to pay for it. This team has always shown up for me when the chips were down. And I’m telling you all this now because today is one of those days. What that really means is… I need your help. Really. So please: [Can you make a $3 contribution to my campaign for Senate today? Every donation will help close our budget gap ahead of tonight’s end-of-month deadline.]( This was a difficult decision. But if there’s one thing that sets our campaign apart from all the others in this race, it’s you. You are keeping us in this fight. Thanks for chipping in today if you can afford it.
