Massachusetts Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren sent a fundraising email for her campaign centered on the allegations of sexual assault levied against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh.

“Christine Blasey Ford has done a brave thing in coming forward. She deserves to be heard and treated with respect. Now it’s the Senate’s job to make sure that happens,” the email said, according to The Washington Times, on Monday.


In July, Ford wrote a letter accusing Kavanaugh of sexually assaulting her at a party when they were both in high school in the 1980s, but the letter only became public knowledge recently. (RELATED: Kavanaugh Breaks Silence After Sexual Assault Allegation)

Both Kavanaugh and Ford will have the opportunity to testify in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee next Monday. (RELATED: Senate Judiciary Committee To Hold Public Hearing For Kavanaugh And His Accuser Next Monday)

Warren will be running against Republican challenger Geoff Diehl in November.
