John,

Roll Call just released their list of the ten “most evenly divided” districts in America -- and my district, California’s 45th, made the list.

This is resounding proof that every single vote matters. Last year, we flipped CA-45 by just 653 votes. And now, with Republicans pouring millions into this district, national analysts say it’s once again at the center of the fight for the House majority.

Here’s what Roll Call reported: Democrats have only a 0.6% edge here on paper. That makes this seat one of the most competitive in the entire country, and one of the most likely to decide control of Congress. 

I know what’s at stake: the right to affordable health care, reproductive freedom, and a government that works for working families instead of billionaires and special interests. That’s why I’m not taking a dime from Big Pharma or Big Oil. 

But that also means I need grassroots supporters like you to stand with me. With our end-of-quarter FEC report due this month, national Republicans will be watching closely to see if we have the resources to defend this seat. Will you rush in a donation of $3 today to help us hold CA-45?
  If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:

Chip in $10 Now Chip in $35 Now

Chip in $250 Now Another amount

Republicans only need to flip three seats to take back the majority. If they win here, they’re one step closer to letting Donald Trump’s extreme agenda run unchecked.

We can’t let that happen. Together, we’ll keep CA-45 blue and defend the values that matter most.

Thank you,

Derek
