Happy Pride!

When I came out in college. [TAMMY {NAME} FOR SENATE]({NAME}.com/go/67?t=1&akid=2733%2E1096370%2ETVHsFg) Happy Pride, {NAME}! 🏳️‍🌈 When I came out in college, I knew I was interested in a career in public service. But I feared that I would have to face a serious choice between pursuing the field of my dreams or living my authentic life openly. [Tammy {NAME}]({NAME}.com/go/2155?c0=tbe-em-jun24.Hijekx&refcode=AU_STB_FR_GEN_GEN_AC_20240603_PM1_V1_S1&t=4&akid=2733%2E1096370%2ETVHsFg) After seeing others in the LGBTQ+ community demonstrate acts of courage by coming out, being themselves, and being public about who they are and who they love, I came to realize that I could do both: I could run for office and be honest about who I am — so that’s exactly what I did. When I became the first openly gay Senator elected in our nation’s history, (thanks to support from this incredible grassroots team!) I understood that I needed to use this extraordinary opportunity to make a difference in people's lives. From lowering prescription drug prices to protecting same-sex marriage through the Respect for Marriage Act, I’ve worked hard every day since to do just that. That's why I ran for office in the first place — not to make history, but to make a difference. And folks like you supported me because you wanted to make a difference, too. [This Pride Month, I’m hoping you’ll support this important work by chipping in toward my reelection campaign to send me back to the United States Senate.]({NAME}.com/go/2155?c0=tbe-em-jun24.Hijekx&refcode=AU_STB_FR_GEN_GEN_AC_20240603_PM1_V1_S1&t=5&akid=2733%2E1096370%2ETVHsFg) If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: [CHIP IN $5 NOW]({NAME}.com/go/3663?c0=tbe-em-jun24.xQpXoA&refcode=AU_STB_FR_GEN_GEN_AC_20240603_PM1_V1_S1&t=6&akid=2733%2E1096370%2ETVHsFg) [CHIP IN $10 NOW]({NAME}.com/go/3664?c0=tbe-em-jun24.eb0TL-&refcode=AU_STB_FR_GEN_GEN_AC_20240603_PM1_V1_S1&t=7&akid=2733%2E1096370%2ETVHsFg) [CHIP IN $25 NOW]({NAME}.com/go/3665?c0=tbe-em-jun24.7pQywl&refcode=AU_STB_FR_GEN_GEN_AC_20240603_PM1_V1_S1&t=8&akid=2733%2E1096370%2ETVHsFg) [CHIP IN $50 NOW]({NAME}.com/go/3666?c0=tbe-em-jun24.TBXF5m&refcode=AU_STB_FR_GEN_GEN_AC_20240603_PM1_V1_S1&t=9&akid=2733%2E1096370%2ETVHsFg) [CHIP IN $100 NOW]({NAME}.com/go/3667?c0=tbe-em-jun24.4WzzIj&refcode=AU_STB_FR_GEN_GEN_AC_20240603_PM1_V1_S1&t=10&akid=2733%2E1096370%2ETVHsFg) [ANOTHER AMOUNT]({NAME}.com/go/2591?c0=tbe-em-jun24.YHzMnO&refcode=AU_STB_FR_GEN_GEN_AC_20240603_PM1_V1_S1&t=11&akid=2733%2E1096370%2ETVHsFg) We have made incredible progress over the years in the fight for equality — but {NAME}, we cannot mistake that progress for a total victory. Republican-led state legislatures across the country continue to pass harmful legislation, especially targeting the transgender community and LGBTQ+ youth. In 2024 alone, 515 anti-LGBTQ+ bills have been introduced across the country. It’s going to take all of us to counter these right-wing attacks so everyone grows up knowing they belong and that kindness and inclusion — not hatred and division — are American values.
