Hello Californians,

I’m writing to you today as a lifelong Californian myself — born and raised. When I was a young lad there was a United States Senator from California, named Alan Cranston who served a couple decades. Sharing that last name made me a little popular in my elementary school, but it also spurred my interest in politics. Over the years, the ebb and flow of political ideology was normal, and within reason, regardless of the party affiliation. Unfortunately that‘s not the case today. And I imagine that we share a deep concern about the future of our country.

Every so often a ‘champion’ rises to the occasion, someone with the courage and intelligence to fight for what is right — not for what is politically safe. And that person couldn’t be needed more than now. There is a champion among us. A person who put himself up as a target to his political opponents in order to stay true to his unwavering belief in our constitution and the defense of our democracy.

I personally don’t like hearing people “tell me” who to vote for, so I won’t do that to you either. I will simply say that I am exceedingly proud to cast my vote for California’s next United States Senator for Adam Schiff. I strongly feel that we need his fearless leadership in the Senate. His clarion voice challenges the dangerous shift of policy within the new Trumpian Republican Party. But Adam is eager to continue working with the few remaining reasonable Republicans with respect and determination to find the common ground that will greatly improve our country. To do that we first need to get him into that position.

As we’ve all witnessed, Adam has been on the front lines, fighting for justice, accountability, and a better future for all of us. He's shown us time and time again that he's willing to break bad politics, and deliver for California and the country, as only a true ‘champion’ can.

I am thoroughly convinced that we need Adam Schiff as our next US Senator to fight for a better and brighter future. Thanks for your time, and I wish you all well.

Bryan Cranston
