John,

As we rapidly approach our first fundraising deadline of the election year, we need to get you up to speed with the increasing stakes in this race.

First, the good news:

Derek is using every tool at his disposal to fight for our communities in Congress and bring back real results -- while being unafraid to call out the Trump Administration. And on the campaign trail, we’re pushing to reach new voters and keep this seat blue after major changes to district lines after Proposition 50.

Now, the bad news:

We already have four GOP challengers, and rumors are swirling that another high-profile Republican plans to get in the race. It’s no secret that the national GOP has wanted to oust Derek ever since he flipped CA-45 by 653 votes in 2024 -- with three seats separating House control, we can’t afford to give them an inch.

Here’s the bottom line:

Political experts now rank CA-45 as the most competitive race in Southern California. How we meet this moment will directly affect the amount of attacks to come -- will you stand with Derek and chip in $3 today?
