I've represented my community in Congress for nearly 25 years, John – but my fight for a better future didn't start there.

From working with the local NAACP to desegregate my girls cheerleading squad at San Fernando High School to being the only member of Congress to vote against the Afghanistan war, I've never stopped fighting for what's right.

Now, I'm the only Black woman in the California Senate primary – and if I win this race, I'll take the experience, struggles and voice of Black women to the Senate. But the hard reality is that Black women candidates fundraise just one-third the amount that white women candidates do.

That's why my team and I set an ambitious goal to raise $100,000 before our crucial end-of-month deadline – but with just one day left to hit this goal, we're falling dangerously short.

So please, with this being our FINAL end-of-month deadline before ballots go out, I have to ask: Will you donate just $5 to my campaign?

The challenges our country is facing – from economic injustice to attacks on our reproductive freedom – require bold, progressive solutions. I'm ready to deliver for all people, but I need your help.

With 20% of California voters still undecided, our work to get out the vote has never been more important. That's why my team is focusing on hiring more organizers, door knockers and phone bankers to continue spreading my progressive message across the state.

Listen, there are only 35 days left until the primary election, and I MUST continue to expand my reach until the very last poll closes. That's why I've set a goal to raise $100,000 online before the month ends to help amp up our grassroots operations in key areas across California – and I'm counting on committed team members like you to help. 

So I'm humbly asking, to give my bid for Senate the best possible chance: Will you donate just $5 to my campaign? Now is the time to dig deep so we can turn out as many voters as possible for primary day.

I can't do this without you, so thank you for your support.
