[Lucas Kunce for U.S. Senate] * Sent in support of Ruben Gallego for Arizona and Lucas Kunce for U.S. Senate * Hola, {NAME}. Itâs Ruben. You might be wondering how this kid⦠[Ruben as a kid]( â¦ended up here, running for U.S. Senate, in one of the most competitive races in the entire country. [Ruben talking on a stage]( Well, it started back in the apartment I shared with my mom and my sisters after our dad left. It was tough. I was sleeping on the floor because thatâs all we could afford. [Ruben and his sisters as children on the couch]( I knew I had to do whatever it took to build a better life for us. I worked a bunch of jobs all through school to help make ends meet. [Ruben working in a restaurant kitchen]( Thanks to my family, my community, and a lot of hard work, I got into college. But before I graduated, I enlisted in the Marines to serve the country that gave me so much. [Ruben in the Marines]( I deployed to Al Anbar, Iraq with my brothers in arms. They called us âLucky Limaâ, but our luck turned eventually. We ended up the hardest Marine hit unit of the entire Iraq war, and I lost some of my best friends over there. [Ruben in a group pic with other Marines]( Youâre never the same person after something like that. And I knew I had to do something to improve things for the guys I served with, for people who grew up like me. So, I ended up running for Congress â and I won. [Ruben speaking on stage]( Then, on January 6th, everything changed. It became clear to me that public service wasnât just about improving the lives of the people in my community anymore â it was about defending our democracy, too. [Ruben in the U.S. capital building]( So now, Iâm running for U.S. Senate. My opponent Kari Lake continues to spread the same lies and conspiracies that caused January 6th in the first place, and sheâs one of the greatest threats to our democracy â after Trump himself. [Donald Trump with Kari Lake on a stage]( Back when I was that kid sleeping on the floor of our apartment, I never wouldâve guessed this is how things would turn out. When I was a Marine in Iraq, I never wouldâve thought Iâd have to fight to defend our democracy at home. When I launched my first campaign, I never wouldâve imagined that hundreds of thousands of people would back me up and donate to support me, either. And I never, ever wouldâve thought Iâd need to ask supporters like you, people who have already done so much, to do a bit more. But to defeat Kari Lake and win in Arizona, thatâs what I have to do. I need you to do a bit more. [Please â if you can afford to make a split donation of $10 or anything you can to my campaign and Lucas Kunce, it would mean the world. A fundraising deadline is right around the corner, and weâve got a ton of progress to make on our goals between now and then.]( If you've stored your info with ActBlue Express, we'll process your contribution instantly: [Contribute $10](
