I know it’s been a volatile few weeks. But out of the emotional roller coaster of national politics has emerged the hope of the first woman President!

Women make up 51.6 percent of the US population (and 52% of CA-03) but less than 30% of any elected body — from Congress to state legislatures around the country. The first woman ran for President in 1872, and after 150 years of hammering, we may be able to finally break that glass ceiling. And we are going to break it up and down the ballot!

As a woman, the 2016 election was profoundly devastating. It felt like the country had collectively posted a giant “No Women Allowed” sign on the White House and instead elected a man who bragged about sexual assault. We have seen and felt the devastating impact of that election, which took women’s rights back fifty years.

But in the aftermath of the 2016 election, I also remember bearing witness to the incredible power of women. In November 2016, after my initial wave of grief subsided, I went to the Women’s March in D.C., and amid the sea of pink knit hats, I realized I wasn’t alone. I realized that women are a powerful and unstoppable force for good. 

From women’s equality, to childcare, to reproductive freedom to housing, I realized that the issues we face will not change unless women step into elected office. Women worked in 2018, and flipped the House with an unprecedented slate of women candidates running for Congress. Women came out and knocked doors, made calls, invested in the races, demanding that our voices be heard — and we got it.

But this election, electing women has felt like an afterthought. Out of the ten seats that the Democratic Party identified as the “battlefield” in California to take the House, I am the only woman running to flip a seat. In a year where women’s reproductive rights are on the line, I am the only woman in a state of 40 million people bringing the case for women directly to the anti-choice incumbent.

Incredibly, in my district, we have capable women running all the way down the ballot, from State Assembly to School Board. Now, with a woman at the top of the ticket, women in our community can actually have our voices heard and our needs represented — from the White House to Congress and beyond.

This moment is too powerful to stand on the sidelines. I hope you’ll join me as we flip this seat and ensure that the first woman President has a woman partner in Congress to help secure our rights and safeguard democracy by supporting my campaign today. [ [link removed] ]

I hope you’ll stand with me in this historic moment, while we break the glass ceiling up and down the ballot.

Thank you,
