CA-30 will elect our first new representative in over two decades.

John, For the first time in over twenty years, our CA-30 community will elect a new representative to Congress. In the past week alone we’ve seen the Republicans' war on women ramping up. State courts in Alabama tried enacting a full-on ban on in vitro fertilization. In Congress, …

We’re just one week out. I’m hoping you can lend your support.

John, I’m reaching out because, in just seven days, ballots will be counted in our race. Which means we only have hours to reach voters who are ready for a progressive woman to lead CA-30. Despite the attempts at negative messaging from some of our opponents, I don't believe that …

URGENT: Dark money attacks against Laura

Outside special interest groups are attacking Laura! Rush in $3 to help Laura fight back. Here we go, John. A dark money special interest group is blanketing CA-30 households with mailers attacking Laura for supporting affordable housing. These attacks are completely misleading an…

The climate champion we NEED in Congress

Hi, John, it’s Jane Fonda. A majority of us are voting with the threats to our climate in mind, but the people we elect are not. With our planet on fire and our leaders failing us, we need to elect new leaders who will take direct and meaningful steps to avert climate disaster. Tha…

Glad I caught you, John. I know you’ve heard from me and my team quite a bit over the past couple of days. The honest truth is that midnight tonight marks an important fundraising deadline as we close in on March 5. As it stands, we're a little short of our 1,000 individual donor goa…

I can’t thank you enough, John

The cruel future the GOP wants for women
