I just became the Democratic nominee in Ohio’s Senate race:

This race is going to be close, and Ohio is key to expanding our Democratic Senate majority.

Hey Jason, it's Tim Ryan. Just last week, I had the honor of becoming the Democratic nominee in Ohio's upcoming Senate race. So in just a moment, I'm going to ask you to split a $10 donation between my campaign and the Democratic National Committee. But first, I hope you'll give me a moment to tell you a little about myself and why this seat is so critical to expanding our slim Senate majority this November. My family goes back generations in the Buckeye State. During the Great Depression, my great-grandfather walked miles every morning to the local steel mill to see if they were hiring any workers. Along with hundreds of others, he hoped he would be one of the few to get picked -- even if just for a few hours of work. He was rarely selected. But he still made that walk every single day, every single month. Here's why I'm telling you this, Jason: My family taught me a lot about determination, perseverance, and doing what's right. I'll never forget where I came from or who I'm fighting for -- and we need more senators like me who will roll up their sleeves and get to work, no matter how many miles the walk is. This race is going to be close. Will you split a $10 donation between my campaign and the DNC today? DONATE: $10 DONATE: $25 DONATE: $50 DONATE: $100 DONATE: $250 Donate another amount My opponent is a Trump-endorsed, out-of-touch extremist, and our Democratic Senate majority is hanging by a single seat. That means Ohio is key to expanding our majority and stopping Mitch McConnell from potentially becoming Senate majority leader once again. By making a donation to my campaign and the DNC today, you're not only investing in flipping this Senate seat blue -- you're also powering our party's efforts to help elect Democrats up and down the ballot nationwide. If you can, split a $10 donation between my campaign and the DNC today. Every dollar will be put straight to work to help protect and expand our majorities in 2022 and beyond.
