John,
I know you get a ton of emails – from other campaigns, and even from ours.
So let me start with this: you’re not an ATM.
When I decided to run for Congress, I promised myself this campaign would never be about treating people like dollar signs. Because the truth is, what powers our movement isn’t money – it’s people.
It’s the farmworker who spends a long day in the fields, then still finds time to volunteer. It’s the teacher who brings her students to a community forum so they can see democracy in action. It’s the small business owner who believes the Valley deserves leaders who actually listen.
That’s what this campaign is about. Not corporate PACs. Not billionaire donors. But neighbors, families, and communities standing together to demand the representation we deserve.
And yes, running a grassroots campaign takes resources. But when you chip in, you’re not just donating. You’re investing in a campaign built on respect, fairness, and opportunity for the Central Valley.
So if you’re able, I’m asking you to join me again today. $3 from would go a long way and directly toward reaching voters here in CA-22.
