Will you pitch in ahead of tomorrow's end-of-quarter deadline? June 30 marks our first FEC deadline since we launched this campaign.  What’s that mean?

What it means to miss a goal

Hi Team, yesterday Congresswoman Sara Jacobs sent an email detailing the big, $3,500 goal we set for the end of the quarter and I wanted to give some context on exactly what it means if we miss the mark this week.

Three reasons why I need your help this week

Friends - as your Member of Congress, my first responsibility is addressing the very real problems Americans are facing and coming up with real solutions. It’s a responsibility I take seriously and one of the driving forces behind why I’m running for re-election. Last year, when we got word that …

It was never just about abortion

Hey friends,   Exactly one year ago today, the Supreme Court ruled in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization that our constitutional right to abortion doesn’t exist. By ignoring half a century of precedent to overturn Roe v. Wade, they deemed us not worthy of a fundamental right like bodily a…

Are you with me in the fight for reproductive freedom?

Friends, later this month we’ll mark one year since the Supreme Court’s ruling in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization - the ruling that overturned Roe v. Wade. But that ruling didn’t just overturn Roe.  For so many of us, the Dobbs ruling overturned our lives and our futures. It shattered …
