Adam Schiff for Senate

Hi John, this is Eve Schiff, Adam’s wife.

Today is our wedding anniversary, and it’s unlike any we’ve celebrated — 3 decades together!

When we were first introduced, I’m not sure either of us would have predicted it was a match made in heaven… but we knew it was quite literally a match.

We first met on a tennis court in Los Angeles, where we played a mixed doubles game set up by a mutual friend.

Rest assured, I whooped him. But he didn’t care. He called me up at work the next week and asked me out to dinner.

Since then, we’ve played plenty of tennis matches (he’s improved his form since then but I still beat him).

And I’ve been by Adam’s side through some incredibly serious moments.

Did you know Adam lost his first two campaigns and didn’t win until we got married? That was surely a coincidence…

In fact, during one of his campaigns, while we were recently engaged, a voter called to give us advice — not on the campaign, but on our getting married. He advised us to think hard about it, and said of his own marriage: “It’s no picnic.”

Well, every year as we celebrate our anniversary (did I mention this is number 30!), we take stock of what a good year it has been, then look at each other and remember “no picnic.” Never fails to make us crack up.

But in all seriousness, from his first campaigns to writing legislation to make a difference in Californians’ lives, to serving as lead impeachment manager, Adam has been diligent and fiercely committed to the values we share.

Truth and honesty. Helping those in need. Defending the Constitution.

This continues to define his work in the Senate.

I believe that our country is filled with promise and that our democracy is precious. And fragile. Adam has been on the frontlines, protecting it. He always will be. And you have always been by his side. I am so grateful for that.

Thank you for being a part of this journey with Adam and me. It means so much to us to know you believe in Adam’s work and vision for our country. And to Adam, I’ll see you later for dinner and you better have picked a good vegan place!
