Grassroots only

In just a couple of days, campaigns all over the country will be facing a critical fundraising deadline. While our opponents are busy waiting for their checks from the NRCC's "Young Guns" program, we rely on the power of grassroots organizing.  Katie is adamant about rejecting corporate PAC …

Katie has CEOs changing their minds

we NEED an assault weapons ban

Popular among mass shooters, assault weapons pose a distinct threat to the safety and security of everyone in our communities. They are military-grade weapons, designed to inflict as much carnage as possible in very little time and have absolutely no place in our schools, streets, or communiti…

More than thoughts and prayers

After the expiration of the federal ban on assault weapons in 2004, we've seen a dramatic increase in mass shootings.  It's time we take action.  Military-grade weapons have no place in civilian life and are unnecessary for self-defense.Will you stand with Katie and demand an assault weapon…

flooding our race with cash

The National Republican Congressional Committee recently named our opponents part of their 2020 Young Guns program. Which is just a lot of words for "flooding Katie's opponents with huge amounts of cash."  John, we can't say we're surprised. Katie has built a solid reputation of standing up to …

Help us fight back

Katie is facing one of the toughest re-election bids in the nation. The NRCC recently announced they're targeting her seat by naming FOUR of her Republican opponents to their "Young Guns" program -- which means money will start pouring in from all over the country.  We've got to do everything w…

Jeopardizing 20 million

Orange County families have told me time and again that they’re worried about how they’ll be able to access affordable, high-quality health insurance. But instead of working to help families, the Trump Administration is trying to dismantle the Affordable Care Act in court.  This is a HUGE deal…

Protect the ACA

Donald Trump’s first priority as President was to repeal the Affordable Care Act Now, Republicans are trying to dismantle the Affordable Care Act in federal court. If we allow the Republicans to get away with dismantling the ACA, millions will lose their healthcare coverage.   Every Americ…

addressing the housing crisis

A disturbing report recently highlighted the shortfall of nearly 759,00 affordable housing units -- and that’s just in Southern California.  The ongoing housing crisis is preventing Orange County families from living their fullest lives as more and more people take on two (or even three) jobs t…

we need more housing

Fewer than a third of low-income families have access to affordable housing in Southern California.  As costs continue to sky-rocket, wages have remained stagnant and our housing crisis worsens. It's time we take action by urging Congress to pass pro-housing legislation like the "American Ho…

Another promise broken

“I’m not going to cut Social Security like every other Republican and I’m not going to cut Medicare or Medicaid.” This was one of Trump's many promises to America in 2015.  Now, the Trump administration is planning to slash more than $1.5 trillion from these programs.  If they're successful,…

Trump lied

Before becoming president, Donald Trump made a promise to leave funding for Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security alone.  It turns out Trump lied. Shocking, we know.  The Trump administration is moving forward with a plan to cut more than $1.5 trillion from Medicaid, $845 billion from Medica…

Trouble for Trump

Katie Porter is turning heads in Congress -- and she's doing it by keeping her promise to hold corporations and government officials accountable to the people of Orange County.  Katie won't let Big Banks or special interests stop her from fighting for Orange Country. And if that is "stirring…

it's not looking good

Our opponents raised more than $860,000 last quarter! That shows just how committed Republicans are to winning back this seat from Katie. John, we know we ask a lot of you, but with Republicans putting up these kind of numbers this early there's a reason. Katie is keeping her promise to keep…

curbing the cost of prescription drugs

I hear it all the time from folks in my district -- we need legislation to help curb the ever-increasing cost of prescription drugs. I have introduced bipartisan legislation that would give Orange County families some relief by offsetting the cost of high out-of-pocket expenses. Now, I'm aski…

It's time Congress did something

People everywhere are worried about the skyrocketing cost of prescription drugs. It's time Congress did something.  Families shouldn't have to choose between affording medication or putting food on the table.  Add your name to demand Congress pass legislation to lower the cost of prescript…

new poll

Some of you may have heard about this new poll in Katie's district ⬇️ While we don't exactly take Republican polling as gospel, there's nothing about this that really surprises us.  This district favors Republicans by roughly five percentage points. That means we will always have a tough fig…

They want to take us back

Republicans are committed to "Taking back Orange County."  Their plan to do it is pretty clear -- collect as much corporate cash as possible and ignore the voters.    This is not Katie's approach.  Katie is rejecting corporate PAC money and is constantly engaging with her community.  But …

A force to be reckoned with
