My decision —

Hey folks, it's Mark Kelly.

Seven years ago, I was making a decision about whether I was going to run for the Senate.

I knew it would be a lot of work. A lot of time away from home. A lot of time away from family. I knew it wouldn't be easy.

But after two years of Donald Trump and a Republican-held Senate doing just about everything he wanted, I knew I couldn't sit on the sidelines. I had to do something.

So, I ran. And, somehow, we won. And then we had to turn around and run all over again to win a full term after that. But thanks to your support, we won that one, too.

I'm grateful every day that I get to wake up, walk out the door, and defend our people, our democracy, and our Constitution. It's one of the greatest honors of my life. And I've never forgotten that I wouldn't be here without your help.

We've been in some tough fights before, but this one is different. The President of the United States threatened my life, personally. I've got the entire executive branch bearing down on me right now.

After everything you've already done for me, I shouldn't have to ask you for more. But that's what I need to do.

I'm asking you to split a donation between Off the Sidelines and me, and I hope you know that I wouldn't be asking if this wasn't important.

If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your split donation to Mark Kelly and Off the Sidelines PAC will go through immediately:

Thank you.

McDonald’s + voting rights 🍟

I'll take a Big Mac, fries, and a side of … voting rights?

Friend, when I was Ohio's secretary of state, I made it my mission to register as many eligible voters as possible. That meant meeting people wherever they were – including at McDonald's.

I reached out to McDonald's and got them to print voter registration forms on their tray liners. They often came back to our office covered in ketchup and mustard stains, but we couldn't have been more honored to accept them.

At the time, analysts at The Washington Post called our voter registration efforts "the most intensive and wide-ranging in the nation." Don't mind me humble bragging.

Whether as secretary of state or U.S. senator or just an American who believes that our democracy only works when we're all able to make our voices heard, I've fought my whole life to protect and expand voting rights. I'm not stopping anytime soon.

But with D.C. politicians currently doing everything from gerrymandering to attacking vote-by-mail, I need your help to keep up the fight, friend.

Will you chip in $5 now so I can unseat my Republican opponent, retake the majority, and protect our democracy in the Senate? I'm relying on folks like you to fuel this campaign, especially ahead of the final FEC fundraising deadline of the year.

Reaching out personally

Hi friend, it's Jon.

If you've been considering chipping in to my reelection campaign, now's the time. I'll explain more in just a moment, but if you're ready to join the fight right now, you can split a donation between my reelection campaign and Patty Murray here: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/pm-email-ossoff

Here's the deal: Republicans have been spending big in Georgia … and much earlier than usual. They're already running ads to attack me and lie about my record because they know flipping this Democratic Senate seat is their best chance to lock in a pro-MAGA Senate majority for the long term.

There's no doubt about it: I'm the most vulnerable Senator on the ballot in the midterm elections.

But I have you, friend.

Together, we've built one of the strongest voter mobilization programs in Senate campaign history, and in 2021 that organization won Georgia and the Senate majority.

Now, I need you more than ever: I am literally MAGA's #1 target.

Yes, this election will be tough.

But we know how to win tough fights. We've done it before.

Let's do it again.

So if you can, please chip in any amount to my campaign and Patty Murray today. Here's the link again: https://secure.actblue.com/donate/pm-email-ossoff

Thank you,

Jon

“1 in 11”

Friend,

It’s Eid, Save the Children’s Vice President and Chief Financial Officer.

Last year, supporters like you helped Save the Children reach more than 113.6 million children in 113 countries – delivering lifesaving health and nutrition support for 28.9 million children and early education programming to 7.5 million children.

But 2025 has required more than we could ever imagine. More children than ever before have been uprooted from their homes. 1 in every 5 children are now living in or fleeing from brutal conflict. The climate crisis is leaving children facing more extreme weather in an increasingly inequitable world.

The need is impossible to ignore. For more than 100 years, Save the Children has been doing whatever it takes to put children first – every day and in times of crisis. Our track record of meeting children's needs efficiently and effectively has earned us recognition as a top charity you can trust. We’re reaching out today to ask for your help in protecting kids who are facing growing needs.

Make a gift to Save the Children that can go FIVE times* as far and invest in a future that puts children first around the world.

There's never been a better time to put your dollars to work with Save the Children and provide vital care to children in crisis:

Save the Children is recognized by CharityWatch as a Top Charity for Child Protection
Save the Children is on Charity Navigator's list of Best Charities for Refugee and Immigration
Charity Navigator counts us among the Most Followed Charities
Save the Children has garnered top ratings among other nonprofit organizations

Simply put, you can feel confident knowing that your 5X gift will go where it’s needed most to help kids and families in crisis.

With so many disasters threatening children, please donate now and your gift can be MATCHED 5X to put children first.

Sincerely,

Eid Natour
Chief Financial Officer
Save the Children

*A generous group of donors has donated to a matching gift fund to inspire more donors like you to support our work, and every $1 you donate will unlock $5 from this pool for the first $1,600,000 in donations or until 11:59 p.m. on December 31, 2025.

Monthly gifts will be matched for the first monthly installment only. If we meet our match goal prior to receiving your one-time or monthly donation, your donation will not be matched but will still go to support our programs.

The gravity of the situation

Hi Jeanne, this is Adam Schiff.

Lately, I've been thinking a lot about the gravity of the situation we're facing.

I want to share some thoughts with you — but before I do, will you pitch in any amount to my campaign and Catherine Cortez Masto's before our end-of-quarter deadline?

PITCH IN

We are living in unprecedented times. Never before has our country faced such deep threats to our democracy.

Health insurance costs are ballooning because they took money out of health care for a tax cut for rich people. People are worried about making ends meet. Housing costs are skyrocketing.

Meanwhile, Trump and his allies in Congress are more interested in going after their rivals than fixing these economic crises.

It's a lot, and I understand why you might want a break.

But we can't afford to disengage or turn away. There are too many important fights that we must continue to wage — for an economy that works for everyone, for our democracy, and for the health and safety of us all.

The future is not set; it is up to us, and we can make all the difference.

And there are good reasons for hope. Millions of Americans have come out to protest against the president. Courts are ruling in our favor. And we scored important victories last month in California, New Jersey, and Virginia.

To prepare for the battles ahead, I'm humbly asking for your support today. So please, can I count on you to chip in any amount you can to Catherine Cortez Masto and me to support my fight to defend our democracy and deliver for working people? Your support makes a huge difference ahead of our quarterly deadline.

Thank you for being part of this grassroots team and having my back every step of the way.

— Adam
