THEY KEEP PUSHING!

Lucas,

Every time we take a step forward, the Republicans are there to push us back.

Health care, women's rights, allowing gays and lesbians to serve openly in the military. Repeal, repeal, repeal.

As they fight against any and all progress, the Republicans insist on keeping tax breaks for the wealthy and subsidies for Big Oil while Americans buckle under the pressures of a still struggling economy.

I'm proud to be a part of the Democratic majority in the Senate that is standing up to the Republicans. But the fact is that our majority is in jeopardy.

Republicans need just four seats to take over the Senate. Will you help me make sure that mine is not one of them? June 30 is a major filing deadline, so we must act now to show the Republicans that we are strong and ready to fight.

Click here to make a contribution to my campaign today and help me reach my goal of raising $100,000 by June 30. I need your support to keep my seat and protect our majority in the Senate.

People ask me how I do it. How do I fight for important legislation knowing that the Republicans are waiting to repeal it once it's passed?

My answer is simple. The people of New York sent me to Washington to do exactly what I'm doing, and if I don't keep up the fight against radical Republicanism I'll be letting them down.

We've all seen how important it is to have a majority in the Senate to be our first line of defense against the GOP's outrageous proposals. Please help me keep my seat so I can remain in Congress and continue fighting for the things New Yorkers care about.

Click here to contribute to my campaign today and help me raise $100,000 by June 30. With your support, I know I can win in 2012 and return to the Senate to fight another day.

Republicans are counting on us to just give up. I, for one, will keep on fighting. I hope you will too.

Sincerely,
Kirsten Gillibrand
