John, the midterm elections are just 8 days away, and most people may not be thinking about Delaware today – but I am (as usual). 

Sure, we don’t take up a lot of the map. We don't have a major league sports team, and we, thankfully, rarely make national headlines for something outlandish. But I love my state – from our pristine beaches in Sussex County to the vibrant City of Wilmington in the northern part of our state – and the beautiful farmland and neighborhoods in between.

And we have an incredible legacy of electing progressive leaders who impact the future of our entire nation – including President Joe Biden! As one of those leaders privileged to serve, I'm proud to have moved my state and country forward:

➡️ I have fought for the future of our planet, been a friend to our national parks, and done what I can to make sure we meet the demands of the climate crisis we are in.

➡️ I have defended our democracy by fighting to ensure that every American has representation in Congress, calling out corruption whenever I see it, and fiercely advocating for the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.

➡️ I have done my part to help elect other incredible Democratic leaders all across the country – from North Carolina to Nevada.

So yes, a grassroots investment in my race in my state may feel small to you. But together, we can have a BIG impact on the future of our country. It doesn't always take a huge investment to create a significant impact!

And now, just 8 days before Nov. 8 and hours before my FINAL end-of-month deadline before the election, I'm asking you to make another investment in this state, in our Senate majority, and in the future of our country.

Will you please chip in $5 before tonight's 11:59 p.m. end-of-month deadline to send me back to Washington so that I can defend our Senate majority and keep on fighting for the Democratic values that we share?

Thank you for having my back in this fight.

– Tom
