PROJECT GUARDRAIL: Take Back the US Senate
Should Trump win another term this November, establishing a ‘guardrail’ in the United States Senate will be critical to reducing the “risk of serious accidents.” Mitch McConnell and the current Republican Senate majority have demonstrated that they are willing to support whatever Trump does regardless of the rule of law and the oath they took to defend and uphold the Constitution of the United States.
We need to take back the United States Senate and establish a ‘guardrail’ to protect our Democracy and the America people. We are doubling down on our efforts to do just that with investments in our digital and virtual ground game programs in key states. We firmly believe that we can make a material difference and get take our country back with your help.

Our goal: 4+ victories
Currently the Republicans hold a 53 – 45 – 2 vote advantage with Independents Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Angus King (I-RH) caucusing with the Democrats.
There are 12 Democratic and 21 Republican Senate seats on the ballot this November. The math is usually on the side of the party with the fewer seats to defend and this November, the math is with the Democrats.
However, several, but not all, of the Republicans running for re-election are running from states that Donald Trump comfortably carried in 2016 – exceptions include Martha McSally (R-AZ), Susan Collins (R-ME), Cory Gardner (R-CO) and Thom Tillis (R-NC). Only one Democrat, Doug Jones (D-AL), is running for re-election in a state that Trump overwhelmingly carried Alabama by 27.7% and is considered to be the most vulnerable Democrat running this November.
There are also some Senate seats that may be on the political bubble for one reason or another including Mitch McConnell (R-KT), Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Joni Ernst (R-IA), Dan Sullivan (R-AK), and two seats in Georgia.
