John,
We have been trying to stay positive in this campaign by not talking about our extremist Republican opponent, Alex Balekian. But sometimes it’s important to draw a comparison.
That’s why we’re honored that the Los Angeles Times has done it for us, and made clear that Laura is the best choice for CA-30.

As we near the final end-of-quarter fundraising deadline before the election, can you help us build off this major show of support and give $3 to help us stop this MAGA takeover of Los Angeles?
As the Times notes, Balekian is spewing plenty of hatred on the trail:
“His misleading personal attacks (one mailer falsely accused Friedman of making bike lanes mandatory ‘in every California city’) and focus on culture war issues such as so-called parental rights seem straight out of the MAGA playbook.”
Balekian is not just known for demonizing transgender individuals, he’s made a point of demonizing the mothers of trans children. He’s obsessed, and not about the things that will actually help the community.

Laura has spent her career fighting to protect our personal freedoms and ensure the safety of all marginalized communities. She is best-known for being an effective legislator who gets things done for the community -- even while facing special interest opposition.
We’re fighting to maintain our progressive, inclusive values in CA-30. Will you join us by chipping in $3 or more today before our deadline closes on Monday?

Thank you,
Laura Friedman HQ
