John,

We’re ten days from our end of month deadline, so I want to take a moment to explain why these checkpoints matter.

The truth is, these deadlines aren't arbitrary.

Each benchmark is a test of strength for our grassroots campaign: whether our movement is keeping pace in one of the most competitive districts in the country, or if we fall short – giving national Republicans an opening to flood CA-45 with dark money attacks.

I flipped this district by just 653 votes last year. I know that every vote matters. And with multiple Republicans already lining up to take me on, early momentum will be key to winning my first re-election race and giving Democrats a fighting chance at taking the House majority.

Your support helps us stay on offense. So please know that every donation – big or small – keeps organizers knocking on doors and ensures our message is loud and clear in every corner of CA-45.

That’s why I’m asking now, before the end-of-month rush hits: will you chip in a donation to prove we’re ready for whatever the GOP throws at us? Fundraising has been a bit slow, and your $3 contribution will go a long way.
  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 $50 Now Chip in $100 Now

Chip in $250 Now Another amount

Thank you,

Derek
