10,000 Founding Donors Needed

Rush $15 >>

Ad copy

Gov. Janet Mills here – I’ve got a big announcement: I’m running for the U.S. Senate! We’ve set a big goal of 10,000 Founding Donors to this campaign, and I’m personally asking you to be one of them. Will you chip in $15 or anything you can today? I’m going to need a huge wave of grassroots support to take on the special interests and MAGA bullies who’ll come to Susan Collins’ rescue, like always. If we’re not ready to respond immediately, Republicans could get the upper hand. Will you chip in $15 or more to become a Founding Donor to our campaign and make sure we have the resources to DEFEAT Susan Collins?
