Tea Party Congressman Joe Heck (R. NV)
As you may or may not know, Rep. Joe Heck (R. NV) has entered the race to succeed retiring Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D. NV). Heck has been labeled as a "moderate" but former Attorney General Catherine Cortez Masto (D. NV) disproves that:
Congressman Heck just announced this morning that he’s running for Senate here in Nevada. And his record proves it – he’s in the pocket of big banks and special interests:
He voted to weaken Elizabeth Warren’s Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
He voted for the Ryan budget to lower taxes for folks at the very top.
And he didn’t just vote for tax breaks for big banks – he sponsored the bill!
The system’s already rigged enough in their favor. They don’t need another ally in the Senate – you do! I can be that ally, but only if you give now to help us win here in Nevada and take back the Senate.
We’ve set a goal of raising $10,000 in the next 48 hours. If we miss this, we won’t be able to fight back against the attacks. I need you to give $5 – whatever you can afford! – right now:

As attorney general, I took on the big banks and cracked down on Bank of America’s predatory lending practices. Protecting Nevada families is my first priority – and the Kochs' and Congressman Heck’s special-interest buddies want to make sure I can’t take those fights to the Senate.
Now that they have a candidate to throw their weight behind, we need to be ready to fight back, and we can’t waste a second. We need to raise $10,000 in the next 48 hours. Please, give now.
Give $5 or more – whatever you can – to help us keep Nevada blue and take back the Senate!

Cortez Masto isn't the only one highlighting Heck's extremist record:
I have news: Tea Party Congressman Joe Heck announced today he’s running against our friend Catherine Cortez Masto – setting up a showdown for Harry Reid's seat in Nevada that will decide Senate control.
Congressman Heck’s not just any candidate – he has an anti-women track record a mile long. He voted to defund Planned Parenthood, criminalize abortion – even in cases of rape or incest – and cut funding for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault.
We have faced and defeated anti-women candidates like Heck before, but Heck and his big-money donors jump in with more money than Catherine has. Unless we immediately help her close the gap, this race – and the Senate – could get away from us.
I’m committed to raising $10,000 for Catherine by midnight. Control of the Senate depends on you giving as much as you can to Catherine right now.
