When Donald Trump picked J.D. Vance as his running mate, he doubled down on Ohio and made it crystal clear to his MAGA megadonors that winning Ohio is a top priority of his. My opponent, Bernie Moreno, was also hand-selected by Trump, which means there are now TWO MAGA candidates AND Donald Trump doubling their effort to defeat us in Ohio. The truth is that this is unlike anything I've ever seen. And to be totally honest, I'm worried about our race. I need your help – and I need it now.

[View it in your web browser]( About BlueAmp Action: We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world. We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits. And savvy grassroots activists like you know, just like we do, that we can’t stop watching the people we help elect: after the elections, we have to keep organizing support for the policies we like and pushing back against the ones we don’t. When the public tunes out between elections and the only people our elected officials hear from are the paid lobbyists of wealthy corporations, our government stops being accountable to the needs of ordinary families. Democracy never sleeps, and neither can we. So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia. Thank you for your support for all we do!
