| | | Can I tell you the story of how I first got involved in politics, Jeanne? | While serving as the president of Nevada's largest synagogue, I was recruited to run in a competitive House race to help flip a red seat blue. Looking back, it's incredibly fitting that this was my entry point to public service – because my Judaism helps guide much of my work in the Senate today. In fact, my decision to say "yes" and run for public office in the first place was guided by the Jewish principle of Tikkun Olam – which means to leave the world a better place than how we found it. | Now, as the third Jewish woman and only former synagogue president in Senate history, I'm proud to serve Nevada and our country. And as we face everything from growing antisemitism to attacks on reproductive freedom to threats to tear down our very democracy, I'm as committed as ever to keep fighting to better this world and make positive change happen. But I need your help. | Mitch McConnell's handpicked candidate just set a new GOP fundraising record to defeat me, and recent polling shows me in a dead heat in the race that experts say will likely decide Senate control. So please, I'm humbly asking: | If the principle of Tikkun Olam resonates with you – if you're with me in the fight to continue making progress for the people and communities that we love – will you chip in $5 or more today to help me defend my seat in Nevada and our Democratic Senate majority? | If you've saved payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: | Thank you so much, Jacky | | | | | | |
