Really proud of this headline:

  John,  I wanted to make sure you saw the headline below. In my first term in office, we have helped secure $1,500,000 in savings for the residents of CA-49!     Read the article Whether we’re reducing folks' tax liabilities or making sure our veterans and seniors get the be…

Mike is under attack

  We’ll be direct, John. These are not the kind of headlines we like to see:   Our opponent is more emboldened than ever in his bid to unseat Mike -- and he has no shortage of support (and inspiration) from Trump and the GOP establishment in Washington. Just last week, our opponen…

SIGN ON: Louis DeJoy needs to be removed as Postmaster General.

  John -- Louis DeJoy needs to be removed as the Postmaster General. Over the weekend, The Washington Post reported on DeJoy’s rise from major GOP fundraiser to the head of the United States Postal Service. One major reason DeJoy got the job was his fundraising for Trump and the GO…

This Labor Day

  Happy Labor Day, John. Last year, you may have enjoyed a cookout, a parade, or a gathering with family and friends. This year, Labor Day won’t just look different, it has taken on a completely different meaning. In the midst of COVID-19, millions of Americans are out of work, and …

What my opponent and Trump have in common:

  What a month, John. Before I dive into some reflections, I wanted to make sure you had a chance to contribute to my grassroots campaign before tonight’s end-of-month fundraising deadline. We're still just short of our goal and can use your last-minute support. Last week marked the…

Calling it like I see it

  I call it like I see it, John. Instead of getting distracted by the misleading attack my opponent dropped this week, I’m doubling down on our positive message for CA-49. In this email, I’m going to ask you to renew your support for our campaign, but first, let me shine some light …

Mike’s under attack, let’s have his back

  John --  With the hypocrisy of the Republican party on full display during the RNC, Mike’s opponent decided to join in and drop a misleading attack ad against our campaign. Not only is it misleading, it follows the Trump playbook completely: playing into typical Fox News-style hys…

🚨 Sounding the alarm on Social Security

  This is not a drill, John.   Trump’s proposal to permanently cut payroll taxes could effectively eliminate Social Security benefits by the year 2023. If Trump and the Republicans are re-elected, it might mean the end of Social Security as we know it -- so we’re asking: Can you c…

Our field efforts are going to be critical.

  Last week’s Democratic Convention reinvigorated our entire team, John, as we’re now just 70 days from the election. Though it was held virtually, the powerful convention speakers reminded us what’s at stake, and how important it is to continue getting the word out about Mike’s campa…

Today's vote

  John,  Now that the House acted on behalf of the people to extend a $25 billion lifeline to save the USPS, they’re sending their bill to the Senate for a vote. Mitch McConnell needs to do his job and move this bill through the Senate and to the desk of the President. The United S…

Jumping on a plane...

Trump ADMITS it.

  He finally admitted it, John. Donald Trump just went on Fox News and explained how he’s trying to rig the November election by undermining our ability to vote by mail by defunding The United States Postal Service.   Trump knows he can’t win a fair election, so he’s doing everythi…

Vote by mail is critical to our democracy. Trump is trying to take it away.

Trump wants to delay the election.

  John, by now you’ve probably seen Trump’s tweet from this morning: Let’s be clear here: This is a dangerous and pathetic attempt by Trump to save his sinking campaign by dragging our democracy down with him. He’s trying to destroy the US Postal Service in order to limit mail-in v…

I was told this was a bad idea.

  John --  A lot of people don’t know this, but we’re one of the very few campaigns in the country running a year-round field program. We don’t believe in trying to reach voters at the last minute before an election, so we’re constantly communicating with undecided voters about thei…

No corporate PACs. No problem.

  John --  It doesn't take being elected to Congress to know unlimited corporate money should have no place in our democracy. It’s one of the worst aspects of our political system. But until we change the laws and end Citizens United, we need to do things the right way. That’s why M…

5.4 million

outrageous

  This is infuriating, John. During a campaign rally in Oklahoma, President Trump openly admitted that he told his staff to "slow down" testing for COVID-19. Of course, we all know why. More testing would likely mean a higher number of COVID cases. That would make him look even worse…
