The most consequential election of our lives

Hello there, it's Ken Burns.

I've dedicated my life to telling America's stories through film. Oftentimes, those stories aren't easy. They examine moments of our country in crisis and threats to our democracy.

So, I can confidently say our country is at a crossroads, and this is the most consequential election of our lives. We are the stewards of our republic, and now more than ever, our democratic values are at stake.

That's why I'm reaching out today. The fate of our Democratic Senate majority—and all the progress that comes with it—hinges on Jon Tester and what happens in Montana.

Will you please join me in supporting Jon's campaign during this critical moment by making a split donation today? I'm not exaggerating when I say the stakes have never been higher.

Having spent almost five decades making films that tell America's stories, I am well versed in our country's historic moments.

Despite troubling times, Americans have always met challenging moments with fierce hope and determination to preserve a future that safeguards our democracy, respects our rights, and upholds our most cherished value of freedom.

This year's election is another challenge for us to meet: In Montana's Senate race, Jon Tester is running against Mitch McConnell's handpicked candidate.

This race will come down to a handful of votes, and Republicans are pouring millions in an effort to flip Montana's Senate seat.

I believe we need a leader like Jon Tester in the Senate. So I'm asking you to dig deep and make a split donation to help build the resources Jon needs to fight back against the GOP's attacks and win this critical election.

This is important.

A note from Kirsten:

Friend, I can't thank you enough for standing by my side in the critical fights ahead of us. As Democrats face our toughest Senate map in decades, I need your help more than ever.

While Republicans only have to defend 10 seats in 2024, Democrats have to defend 23 — and if the GOP flips just two of them, it will deliver Senate control back to Mitch McConnell. Now, experts at FiveThirtyEight are saying that the GOP has a clear path to the majority.

As right-wing special interests gear up to pour millions into flipping the Senate, we need to fight back right now. But I refuse to take a single cent from corporate PACs, which means I'm relying on your grassroots support. So please, chip in to help defend our narrow Democratic Senate majority. And if you'd like to become a core member of my team and receive exclusive texts from my campaign, text JOIN to 60708.

Thank you,

Kirsten Gillibrand
