Hey John, Katie Porter here. In 2020 I started Truth to Power, an organization dedicated to electing leaders to Congress who reject corporate PAC money and fight to lower costs, protect the environment, and restore the nationwide right to an abortion.
Today, I’m asking you to split a donation between my organization, Truth to Power, and the Democrat running in CA-47, the district I currently represent in Congress. We must hold CA-47 if Democrats are going to flip the House blue. Can you split a donation today between Truth to Power and CA-47 Democratic nominee Dave Min?
I’ve been so proud to represent this district, which includes my hometown of Irvine and coastal Orange County cities like Newport Beach and Huntington Beach. But when I decided to run for the U.S. Senate, it meant I couldn’t simultaneously run for the U.S. House.
Dave Min, a state Senator who currently represents 80% of the congressional district, just advanced out of last week’s primary and now will face Republican Scott Baugh—the same corrupt, extremist Republican I won against in 2022.
I’ve endorsed Dave Min because CA-47 deserves to be represented by a progressive Democrat for years to come. Dave has done important work at the state level to improve the lives of Orange County families. He ended gun shows on California state property, has fought to end offshore oil drilling, passed critical protections for domestic violence survivors, and delivered billions of dollars in COVID-19 relief funds to small businesses. He’s proven he can win in Orange County while delivering a progressive agenda.
This is one of the country’s most important House races. Republicans hold a tiny majority in the House, and so holding every competitive seat like this one is critical. Anything you can give will help us ensure CA-47 stays blue.
Onward,
Katie Porter
