Jason, Last night, it became official: I’m the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Ohio. I’m grateful. Truly. I came off the sidelines for one reason: Ohio families. Life is too expensive. Paychecks are too low. Costs are too high – utilities, health care, groceries, everything. Ohioans see more money going out the door, and not enough money coming in. And it’s because the system is rigged. Too many Ohioans are getting the short end of the stick while people in power are doing favors for billionaires and corporate special interests. You are working harder than ever, but you can’t get ahead. But instead of working to bring down costs and taking on corporate interests, politicians in Washington are making things worse. Politicians like Jon Husted. Ohio deserves better and Ohioans are showing up and insisting on change. Last night was an important step in that fight because it brought us one step closer to flipping this seat and retaking Senate control. But we also know this battleground race is about to get harder. A new poll shows me down by 3 points. National Republicans are pouring nearly $80 million into Ohio to defeat us – more than they’re spending in any other battleground state. And a GOP super PAC just launched a seven-figure ad buy attacking me. They know Ohio is in play. They know we can win. And they know that if we do, we can flip the Senate. The Cook Political Report now calls this race a “Toss Up.” That matters. So does the grassroots energy we’ve built together. That’s why we set an ambitious goal: to raise $1 million by the end of the week so we can make critical investments across the state and reach voters in every corner of Ohio. So if you’re able, will you chip in $20, split between my campaign and the DNC, to help us start the general election strong and flip this seat and more?

Tomorrow night Katie takes the stage for the third debate in this race for governor.
And with the primary now less than a month away, it’s crunch time. Every moment from here on out will decide whether we break into the top two and secure our spot on the November ballot.
That’s why we set an urgent goal: raise $50,000 before Katie steps on stage.
We need to be fully resourced going into the debate and ready to turn the attention she earns on stage into real momentum. That means reaching more voters and ensuring undecided Californians hear Katie’s message loud and clear.
Will you chip in $5 right now to help us reach our $50,000 goal before tomorrow’s debate?
Katie is up against a self-funded billionaire who’s dropped $158 million into his own campaign, a candidate who took a maximum contribution from Big Oil, and two MAGA Republicans ready to bring Trump’s agenda to California.
They have special interests and corporate cash behind them. We have something stronger: a grassroots movement powered by people like you.
But debates like tomorrow’s only matter if we have the resources to follow through—keeping Katie’s message in front of voters across California after she leaves the stage.
If you’re with Katie, now is the moment to act.
Thank you,
Team Katie
