Every year on Valentine's Day, I can't help but think back to when I first met Carolyn 35 years ago. From the beginning, one thing was clear: I couldn’t find anyone else quite like her.

John, I was right.

I simply cannot imagine my life without the unwavering love and support that has defined our marriage. I fell in love with Carolyn because of her passion, sense of purpose, and her determination to make life better for other people. That’s just who she is -- and it's why she’ll make an amazing representative for Southwest Washington in Congress.

As a show of my appreciation, I’m asking you to join me and thousands of supporters while we give this race everything we've got in order to get the best woman I know to Congress.

John, let's see how many people we can get to chip in before midnight. If you love Carolyn, consider chipping in $14 to power our campaign for change today!

Thank you so much -- and happy Valentine's Day!
