URGENT NEWS: One of the nation's wealthiest and most powerful corporate interest groups, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, just announced a $10 million advertising campaign across eight key states. This is a major piece of their plan to defeat President Obama, seize the Senate and execute a complete GOP takeover of government.
These states represent 72 electoral votes, more than decided two of the past three presidential elections -- combined. Eight Senate seats is twice the current slim Democratic majority.
These ads are running now. We must react. We must respond. Now. $1 million by the end of February - combined with our current resources - will allow us to beat the Chamber.
If we lose these states, we don't just lose the Senate. We lose the White House and our ability to stop Republicans from launching a full-out assault on women's rights, American workers, and our social safety net. $1 million by the end of February will help us hold the line. Thanks for your help.
