John,
As a Navy "Nuke" operator, I was assigned to the USS Salt Lake City nuclear attack submarine. Serving onboard this vessel was an incredible experience where I had an education on clandestine activities conducted to ensure the national security of Western democracy. It's exciting to see the work and mission of our submarine fleet (the Silent Service) emerging into the mainstream.

As our technology advances and the escalating threat posed by China grows, particularly in the South China Sea and Pacific, the Silent Service and its ability to outpace everyone worldwide becomes increasingly critical for our national defense. We must protect it from the espionage activities of foreign actors. Loose Lips Sink Ships, and that's why we need to maintain operating as the Silent Service.

Help elect a United States Navy veteran to Congress who understands these threats and the technology needed to protect our homeland. Please pitch in today on $5 Friday and commit to a weekly $5 contribution.

If you'd rather make a one-time contribution, donate to our campaign effort to flip this Central Valley congressional seat from blue to red.

Thank you in advance for your help and involvement in our campaign. Your participation makes a huge difference. Together, we can elect a former US Navy Nuclear Operator to Congress.
Sincerely,
