U.S. Sen. Brian Schatz sent out a request for campaign donations Monday (Feb. 25). Excerpt:

… Hawai`i’s stake in what happens in Washington, D.C. is crystal clear today. That’s why I’m fighting to stop the sequester with a balanced approach, and why I’m more committed than ever to making sure Hawai`i always has the strongest possible voice to keep something like this from happening again.

So, while I’m fighting for Hawai`i in the Senate this week, I need you to stand with me and help kick off our 2014 campaign so we can stay strong today, tomorrow, and every day.

Will you help me keep fighting for Hawai`i by contributing $3 to help us recruit 100 new donors before midnight Thursday? …

Aloha.
