Team, it's Colin Allred. Jon Ossoff said I should reach out. Just this morning, I announced my campaign as the Democrat running for U.S. Senate to defeat Ted Cruz and put Texans first.
Before I ask you to chip in to get us off the ground, I'd love to share a bit of my story with you. (But if that's all you needed to hear, here's the link! actblue.com/ossoff_allred/donate
It starts with my mom. She raised me on her own, taught in Dallas public schools and sometimes worked two jobs to make ends meet. Thanks to my mom, a strong support system and the good folks at our local YMCA, I got a full-ride football scholarship to Baylor and then made it to the NFL, which was truly a dream come true.
Then, I went on to fulfill another dream: becoming a civil rights attorney. I proudly served in the Obama administration before I came home to Dallas, where I'm raising my family.
I ran for office because I wanted more Dallas kids to have the opportunity to succeed – and in my first race I defeated an 11-term GOP incumbent, helping Democrats flip the House blue in 2018.
Now, I'm ready for my next fight: taking on Ted Cruz.
I need your help to win this race. Will you split a donation between my campaign and Jon's to defeat Cruz and expand our Senate majority? I need to raise $500,000 today, and every single dollar makes a big difference: actblue.com/ossoff_allred/donate
