Friend —

I’m writing to ask you to split a contribution today between my campaign and Adam Schiff’s campaign for Senate in California.

Please give me just a minute let me explain why:

In 2019, while serving on the National Security Council, my brother Alex heard a phone call wherein then-President Trump pressured Ukrainian President Zelensky to fabricate lies about Joe Biden as a quid pro quo for US military aid.

At the time I was the NSC’s lead ethics attorney. My brother alerted me of the call and we immediately informed our superiors. Alex eventually testified before a closed session of the House Intelligence Committee, on which Rep. Adam Schiff served as chair.

Adam Schiff led a thorough, honest investigation and eventually secured the first bipartisan vote in a Senate impeachment trial to convict a U.S. president in the history of our country.

Exposing Trump’s abuse of power was the right thing to do — but we all paid the price.

Trump fired Alex and I from our posts, and the GOP and right-wing media have spent every day since seeking to take down Adam Schiff, censuring him on a partisan vote and even trying to remove him from Congress — simply for championing the rule of law.

That’s why it’s up to us to have Adam’s back. Because he will always have our backs in the fight for our democracy.

Just look at January 6th and the ongoing attacks on fair elections. Look at Republican attempts to strip the fundamental right to vote.

It’s more important than ever that we have staunch voices in defense of democracy in the Senate. Adam Schiff is one of those voices.

So please, split a contribution of whatever you can afford today between Adam’s campaign for Senate and my campaign for Virginia’s 7th district. Every dollar makes a difference as we approach our February fundraising deadline tomorrow night.

Thank you for taking the time to hear me out today.
