Received this e-mail today from U.S. Senator Sherrod Brown (D. OH) in support of Cal Cunningham’s (D. NC) U.S. Senate campaign:
I’ll get straight to the point: In 2020, we have a real opportunity to win back the Senate. But only if we win in key states like North Carolina.
Luckily, we’ve got a great candidate, Cal Cunningham, who I’m confident can win this race. He exemplifies the values we desperately need in our government right now: hard work and public service.
A lifelong North Carolinian, a veteran, and a community leader, Cal will be exactly the type of Senator North Carolina needs.
I’m excited for us to work together to expand access to health care, combat the climate crisis, invest in education -- and, of course, advance the Dignity of Work. I hope you’ll join me in supporting him. If you can, split a contribution between our campaigns today.
We know what the consequences of a Republican-controlled Senate look like. Two years ago, GOP leaders passed a disastrous tax bill that gave huge breaks to the wealthy and corporations -- while too many working families in Ohio and North Carolina were left behind. That’s just wrong: You know it, I know it, and Cal knows it, too. In the Senate, I’m confident Cal will look out for all those he represents, not just the wealthy few.
That’s why Cal’s not accepting money from corporate PACs and is proud to be endorsed by End Citizens United. He’s relying on people like you to power his campaign forward and get him to Washington. It’s on all of us to help send him to the Senate.
And since he’s sure to face an onslaught of spending against him, we’ve got to step up now, before the upcoming end-of-month fundraising deadline. If you can, chip in to support him today.
With gratitude,
Sherrod
