Barbara Boxer and Will Rollins

John, I’ve got a huge announcement that should bring a smile to your face and hope to your heart: former federal prosecutor, Will Rollins is running for Congress in California’s 41st district -- one of the most important races in the country in the effort by Democrats to retake the House.

Will stunned political experts in 2022 when he came so close to winning against right wing Republican, Ken Calvert. It ended up being one of the closest races in the country. He outperformed every projection and was the only Democratic challenger in California to win the independent vote. That’s a big deal. 

There is no question in my mind that in this upcoming election, with the Presidency on the ballot, the larger turnout will be the key to victory IF we have a strong campaign.

I have committed my energy, time and money to this race and today I am asking you to start Will off with a show of support that will send him a message that we are behind him 100 percent.

I’ll share more about why I'm backing Will, but first, I have an important request: Could you split a $10 donation between Will’s campaign and Blue Amp Action to help him launch with strength? Will can win this thing, so please donate now.

 

Here’s why Democrats across the country should pay close attention to this race:

1. We need candidates like Will in Congress. As a former federal prosecutor, he understands the ongoing danger that extremism poses to our democracy. He brought justice to insurrectionists, and I know he'll take the oath to defend democracy as seriously now as he did in the Justice Department.

2. Retaking the House runs through CA-41. After the new lines were drawn, CA-41 became a true swing seat. It’s the type of district Democrats MUST WIN to regain Congress.

3. GOP super PACs. Despite the tough midterm environment in 2022, Will was the third most “overperforming” Dem challenger in the country. He was also heavily outspent by the GOP’s dark money machine. If Democrats help Will keep pace, he can flip this seat!

4. Will’s opponent Ken Calvert has got to go. Calvert voted to overturn the 2020 presidential election. He backs the extreme ban on abortion -- including for instances of rape, and wants doctors who perform them to go to jail. CA-41 is home to one of the most LGBTQ-friendly cities in Palm Springs, yet Calvert staunchly opposes gay marriage.

The rematch is on, folks. Will came so close to winning in 2022, and this is our chance to finish the job. But it depends on widespread, grassroots support. 

Please split a $10 contribution between Will Rollins’ campaign for Congress and Blue Amp Action today. I’m telling you, this will be one of the most critical races in the country, so don’t sit this one out! We need lots of Democrats to step up right out of the gate.

Thanks,

Barbara Boxer 

Former U.S. Senator, California

About BlueAmp Action:

We cannot sugarcoat the current situation. Right-wing authoritarianism, defeated by a worldwide coalition during WWII, was only in hibernation. Over the past decade it has infected democratic societies--including ours. It is as simple as it is terrifying: What we do now will define the future of our country and world. 

We at Blue Amp Action are dedicated to liberal, open societies, where reason and science are applied to solve our problems; where civil rights--including voting rights!--are protected for all. We fight for these values every day. Speaking up on our platforms, raising the voices and the political prospects of liberal pols and pundits. 

So we ask that you support our work, so we can continue to engage in this fight every moment of every day. So our kids grow up in democracy, not dystopia.

Thank you for your support for all we do! Please follow Cliff Schecter on Twitter @cliffschecter, or subscribe to The Takedown with Cliff Schecter on YouTube, to keep up to date with this battle for the heart and soul of our country.
