Friends – the stakes of November's election couldn't be higher.
After the recent Supreme Court nomination, everything – from health care to voting rights – is on the ballot. That's why it's never been more important to support strong leaders who can take back the Senate – and that includes Adrian Perkins.
I am so proud to endorse Adrian for U.S. Senate – he would become the first Black Senator ever to represent Louisiana if elected. But with time running out before Election Day, I'm counting on you to help make sure his people-powered campaign has the resources to win this critical seat and the Senate majority for Democrats:
Will you donate $5 or more right now to elect Adrian Perkins in Louisiana, take back the Senate for Democrats and protect the future of the Supreme Court?
Adrian Perkins has been a fighter all his life. He grew up in one of the toughest neighborhoods in Shreveport, graduated from West Point and served our country during three tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan. Now a Harvard-educated attorney, he serves the community that raised him as the Mayor of Shreveport.
Adrian knows the struggles Louisiana families face because he's been there himself. That's why I know that as Louisiana's next Senator, he will fight to give families access to quality health care, education and jobs. He will work to erase inequality. And he will protect the sacred right to vote.
A new FiveThirtyEight poll shows that less than 40% of Louisiana voters support Adrian's GOP incumbent opponent's reelection, which means Adrian can win this race and take back the Senate for Democrats – but not without every bit of grassroots support from people like you.
Right now, Adrian's campaign is facing down a $30,000 fundraising gap, and he can't take on the deep pockets of Mitch McConnell's special-interest allies unless you rush an immediate donation. So I'm personally asking: Will you give now to help Adrian close this gap and flip the Senate?
Donate $5 or more right now – every dollar will make a big difference in this tough race – to help Adrian Perkins win Louisiana's critical Senate seat and take back the Senate for Democrats.
Thank you for being a part of this fight for a better future.
