John, have you heard the news?
Former Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy announced he’s resigning at the end of this month instead of finishing out his term.
McCarthy will be remembered for the 15 rounds of voting to elect him as Speaker of the House in January – and for his downfall at the hands of the far-right extremist he catered to.
But here’s why this matters in CA-27:
McCarthy has been one of Mike Garcia’s most steadfast funders. Between his super PAC and fundraising committees, he has boosted Garcia to the tune of millions of dollars over the years.
Garcia just lost a key ally, and everyone is taking notice.
It won't be long until Garcia starts calling up new special interests for massive checks. Meanwhile, Team Whitesides is building a community-centered campaign to give CA-27 the representation we deserve. Can we count on you to chip in $3 today?

With or without McCarthy, Republicans in the House – including extremists like Mike Garcia – are desperate to cling on to their power.
But they are on their heels now, John. Only a handful of seats wins back the majority, and this California toss-up race could be one of our best chances in the country to do it.
If you haven’t yet, please give $3 or any amount toward our $50,000 end-of-year goal to flip CA-27 and stop Mike Garcia in his tracks.
Thanks,
Team George Whitesides
