| Hi, my name is Shannon Watts, author, activist, and founder emerita of Moms Demand Action – an organization I started after the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting to end gun violence. But today I need to talk to you about something just as important: electing leaders who will stand up for American families. Leaders like Janet Mills. Janet is criss-crossing Maine, talking directly with voters about what's at stake in this race and why it matters to their families. And when it matters most, she doesn't back down. When Donald Trump tried to bully Maine's public schools, Janet took him to court – and won. That's the kind of backbone we need in the U.S. Senate. Susan Collins has chosen another path. She votes with Trump 94% of the time, helping push dangerous policies that hurt the very people she was elected to serve. This is why this race matters so much. But reaching voters across rural Maine isn't easy or cheap. It takes DOUBLE the amount of resources to make sure every voter hears Janet's message – making it twice as expensive. Collins can afford it because she's backed by $50 million from Republican PACs and corporate donors. So, Jason, to keep her organizing strategy running, Janet is relying on grassroots supporters like you. Janet's team set up a $30,000 Rural Organizing Fund to reach voters in every corner of Maine. Will you split a donation between Janet Mills and Fight For Progress PAC to help power this movement and defeat Susan Collins? |
