I don’t want to bug you

I don't want to bug you, friend, but I need to give you an important update:

We missed last night's critical mid-month goal. Since my team reached out earlier today asking for help to get back on track, we've made some great progress, but we're still about 10% short.

November and December are notoriously difficult months for fundraising – but everything we raise right now will determine if we can start the election year strong. And with my Republican opponent Jon Husted launching ads and ramping up his campaign, we have no time to waste.

So I need to ask: Friend, will you rush $5 before midnight to help us close our budget gap and win in Ohio?

Katie's been hitting the road to meet with voters and join events to help spread her lower costs vision for California. Take a look:

Katie joined the Orange County Employees Association to support their incredible members! These dedicated workers—public health nurses, social workers, and peace officers—are the backbone of Orange County.

She toured the Cherry Avenue interim housing community. San Jose is proof: unsheltered homelessness IS solvable.

Katie joined the California State Association of Counties for a panel. As governor, Katie will be a warrior against Donald Trump's gutting of Medi-Cal, CalFresh, and emergency disaster aid.

UC-Merced students recently shared their thoughts with Katie on our state's direction and how Donald Trump's decisions are hurting their classmates and campus. Our students are California's future—our nurses, engineers, scientists, teachers, and more.

Katie Porter is counting on grassroots supporters like you to power this campaign. Unlike her billionaire opponent, Katie can't self-fund by writing a massive check.

Will you donate $5 right now to help keep Katie on the road, meeting with voters?

Thank you so much,

Team Katie Porter

Katie is running to be California's next governor because California and our country need a leader who will stand up to Trump to lower costs, protect our rights, and combat climate change.

Our plans for December 31st

For most people, December 31st is about throwing parties with loved ones and watching the ball drop in Times Square. For us, December 31st marks the most important deadline we've faced this cycle — our final public fundraising deadline.

After the 31st, our numbers will go public for national Republicans to see — and they'll know whether we have the momentum to take back the Senate in the midterms, or whether we're lagging behind.

That's why we're sending you this email to explain why we're asking for our supporters to chip in $10 or anything they can before the year ends. We hope that when you're done reading, you understand why the stakes are so high to raise at least $50,000 by 12/31.

If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

DONATE $10 NOW >>

DONATE $25 NOW >>

DONATE $50 NOW >>

DONATE $100 NOW >>

DONATE ANOTHER AMOUNT >>

Here's why this deadline matters so much:

🔷 12/31 is the last FEC fundraising deadline for this year before we start the final sprint toward the midterm elections.

🔷 After 12/31, we will publicly disclose how much money we raised — and Republicans will be gauging our strength.

🔷 When 2026 kicks off, we need to immediately make investments in important battleground states to continue reaching out to voters, building ads programs and organizing on the ground. This all requires significant resources that we don't have yet.

🔷 Republicans have already reported historically high fundraising numbers — so we need to be prepared to fight against hundreds of millions that will be spent on attack ads.

🔷 Our organization doesn't rely on billionaires or special interests to fund our organizing work — we rely on grassroots donors like you.

That's why it's critical we grow our fundraising momentum TODAY. Everyone will be watching us on December 31st and we can't afford to show any sign of weakness.

Please: If you can give even just $10 today, it would make a huge difference as we race to raise $50,000 by December 31st for the last public fundraising deadline of the year.

We won’t sugarcoat this

We won't sugarcoat this, friend: Last night, we fell short of our $100,000 mid-month goal – and the timing couldn't be worse.

Not one, but two recent polls show Sherrod with a slight lead in this race. The Cook Political Report has increased our chances of winning. And our Republican opponent, Jon Husted, is launching ads to defeat Sherrod.

Unless we close our budget gap, all of our momentum – and our ability to fight back against Husted and his corporate special-interest allies – could be at risk.

The road to retaking the Senate runs through Ohio, friend, and every single grassroots donation has the power to decide the outcome. So please, will you chip in $5 or more now to help us make up this shortfall and win in Ohio?

Do me a quick favor?

Hi, it's Stefanie Conahan from Team Gillibrand.

Kirsten texted me today to check how far away we are from hitting our $100,000 December fundraising goal.

Hey! Can you please check how our fundraising is doing? I'm getting nervous about how fast this deadline is coming up and we really can't afford to fall short.

Senator Gillibrand

Yes, I'll send you an update tomorrow!

Stefanie

Unfortunately, we're tracking behind on our December goal ahead of our biggest fundraising deadline of the year — and we really need to raise another $4,735 by midnight to get up to speed. MAGA Republicans will be watching our numbers as soon as they go public to see if we have the momentum to flip the Senate. Can you please rush $10 or anything you can before I give Kirsten an update in the morning? >>

I'll be honest with you.

Our team is feeling a lot of pressure now that we're only weeks away from our final public fundraising deadline of the year.

Hitting this goal is going to determine how hard we can fight next year to flip the Senate — and we already know that the GOP is preparing to spend hundreds of million dollars to hold onto their majority.

Kirsten is leading the fight as DSCC Chair to win U.S. Senate races in battleground states like Michigan, Georgia and Ohio — but at the end of the day she can't do this without your support.

Please do me a favor and chip in $10 before I send an update to Kirsten. I want to tell her that we're on track to hit our goal, but we need at least $4,735 to come in tonight.

Thank you for being part of this fight,

Stefanie Conahan

I will not give up on our country, Jeanne

Jeanne,

If you can believe it, things didn't stop when Trump called for my hanging. It didn't stop with the threat of a court-martial from Pete Hegseth, either. Because now, the FBI has asked to question me and other members of Congress.

All for saying things the president didn't like to hear.

If you're feeling like this isn't the country you grew up in, I don't blame you. But I hope you aren't giving up on it, Jeanne.

I certainly haven't. This country has given me too much, and I'll never be able to repay that debt. I still believe in our democracy, our values, and our Constitution.

There's no chance in hell that somebody like Donald Trump is going to stop me from serving the people of this nation. None.

If he thought all of this was going to shut me up, he's got another thing coming.

And if you'd be willing to help support me as we gear up to fight back against the attacks coming our way from Donald Trump and his administration, please:

Split a donation between Catherine Cortez Masto and me. It would mean a lot.

Donate

Thank you,

Mark
