I take seriously my responsibility to uphold our democratic values. I truly believe that this year’s election will be a turning point for our country.
That’s why I’m working my heart out to keep this toss-up seat blue. I know that we are the last line of defense against Donald Trump and his MAGA extremists.
We’ve seen what happens when Trump controls the Supreme Court. What happens when he takes control of Congress too? It’s genuinely a nightmare scenario for our democracy.
And the election is coming quickly. This Sunday is our next end-of-quarter deadline (one of the last times we will submit our fundraising numbers), and then it will be a full-out sprint to the finish line.
Republicans know exactly what they are doing. They know they are only a few seats away from controlling the House and Senate. That’s why they are ramping up attacks on Democrats like me. They just reserved $2 million in TV attack ads against me in fact.
I’m asking for your grassroots support right now to help us reach our fundraising goal and fight back — because every single vote will matter in our competitive race. This is the first deadline since a poll showed us down by 4 points against our extreme MAGA opponent, Kevin Lincoln. It’s a scary position to be in, and we can’t afford to be outraised this quarter!
When I say, “The stakes have never been higher,” I’m not just talking about the stakes for our race. I’m talking about the stakes for our country, for our democracy.
If my opponent Kevin Lincoln wins this race, he’ll be California’s version of Marjorie Taylor Greene. The last thing we need is for our wonderful state to be known for sending an extremist like that to Congress.
We can’t let that happen — and our grassroots team is working around the clock to ensure it doesn’t. Our neighbor-to-neighbor volunteer program is ramping up quickly and I’m incredibly proud of the work they’re doing. Our race will be decided by just a few hundred voters, so we have to out-organize our opponents.
I know that you don’t want to look back the day after this consequential election and wish we had done more — nor do you want to turn on the TV to see Kevin Lincoln shaking hands with Donald Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene when they criminalize abortion nationwide.
We have to reach our $25,000 end-of-quarter goal to ensure voters in our district know how dangerous a MAGA-controlled Congress will be with Donald Trump in the White House.
You are receiving this email because Congressman Josh Harder is one of our last lines of defense to protect our democracy against MAGA extremists like Donald Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene.
