I'm reaching out to ask you to help my friend Kirsten Gillibrand. Will you give me a moment to explain? I'm incredibly proud to call Kirsten my friend, colleague, and fellow New York senator. From her very first day serving in Congress back in 2007, she's been one of Washington's strongest voices for progress. Now, as senator, she's on the front lines of the fights that matter most to families. But as the 2024 election heats up, GOP megadonors are targeting Kirsten's seat for defeat. And right now, she's falling short of her critical $75,000 mid-month goal. [So I have to ask: Will you donate $5 or more before midnight to help Kirsten make up the gap and protect her must-win Senate seat? Please, friend, we need Kirsten's voice in the Senate — especially with far-right extremists threatening the rights and progress that we've fought so hard to win.]( If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: [DONATE $5]( [DONATE $25]( [DONATE $50]( [DONATE ANOTHER AMOUNT]( Trust me on this: Kirsten delivers results. Over the last couple of years, she's won legislation to reform our military's criminal justice system, protect survivors of sexual harassment and assault, expand benefits for veterans and 9/11 first responders, crack down on gun trafficking, and tackle corruption in Washington. Now, she's leading the charge to win guaranteed paid family leave, certify the Equal Rights Amendment, restore reproductive rights, protect seniors, and so much more. I've had the privilege of working closely with Kirsten on these issues and so many others. I've seen her fight harder than just about anyone else to build coalitions across the aisle, block dangerous bills, and get her legislation across the finish line. And I'm not exaggerating here: While in the House, Kirsten gave birth to her second son mere hours after working a 13-hour day. Kirsten is one of a kind. And families in New York and across the nation need her voice in Washington advocating for their rights, priorities, and futures. But that's why the GOP is ready to do everything within their power to defeat her this fall. New York Republicans celebrated their best election cycle in decades in 2022. Their extremist candidates flipped enough seats in the midterms to win control of the House and came within single digits of winning the governorship. Now, they're directly targeting Kirsten's seat to retake Senate control. I know that my friend has what it takes to defeat the GOP and their megadonors. But because she refuses to accept money from corporate PACs, she's counting on strong grassroots support to win this critical race. [So please, before her mid-month deadline, will you rush a donation to help Kirsten defend her seat and continue to fight for progress for families in the Senate?]( [DONATE NOW]( Thank you for taking the time to support my friend and help defend our Senate majority. With gratitude, Chuck Schumer --------------------------------------------------------------- [Join Kirsten in the Fight to Defend the Senate. Donate Now. Text NY to 60708]( A note from Kirsten: Friend, I can’t thank you enough for standing by my side in the critical fights ahead of us. As Democrats face our toughest Senate map in decades, I need your help more than ever. While Republicans only have to defend 10 seats in 2024, Democrats have to defend 23 — and if the GOP flips just two of them, it will deliver Senate control back to Mitch McConnell. Now, experts at FiveThirtyEight are saying that the GOP has a clear path to the majority. As right-wing special interests gear up to pour millions into flipping the Senate, we need to fight back right now. But I refuse to take a single cent from corporate PACs, which means I’m relying on your grassroots support. [So please, chip in to help defend our narrow Democratic Senate majority.]( And if you’d like to become a core member of my team and receive exclusive texts from my campaign, [text JOIN to 60708.]( Thank you, Kirsten Gillibrand This email was sent to {EMAIL}.
