Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Cory Booker (D. NJ) in support of Rep. Tammy Duckworth’s (D. IL) U.S. Senate campaign:
Friend,
This Election Day, I hope that we’ll see progressives take back the Senate majority, so we can get better results for hardworking Americans.
And if we pull off that victory, there’s one champion I want working with me in the Senate—and that is Tammy Duckworth.
She’s in a tough race in Illinois and is a vital part of our nationwide effort to turn the Senate so we can replace obstruction with progress. The Washington Post called Illinois the “#1 most competitive Senate race in 2016.” The stakes are high for taking back the Senate, and this is one race we can’t lose.
We’ve set a grassroots goal of raising $10,000 by midnight to help give her campaign a boost of support and win on Election Day. Will you chip in $15 or more to help our progressive ally win?
Tammy is a combat Veteran who lost her legs and partial use of her right arm when the Black Hawk helicopter she was piloting was shot down in Iraq. Since recovering, she has made it her life’s mission to serve her fellow Veterans and working families.
This will not be an easy race—but if we step up today and reach our goal, together we can help Tammy pull out a victory on Election Day.
Tammy is counting on us. Pitch in today to help a true progressive champion.
Thanks,
Cory
