Hey John, it’s Aaron, Joe Kerr’s Campaign Manager.

We are one week away from our first FEC quarter filing deadline, so I’ve been taking a closer look at our fundraising numbers, and we’re not on track to hit our goal.

Right now, we’re at the beginning stages of building a grassroots campaign that can take on Young Kim in 2026. The Cook Political Report has called CA-40 one of the most competitive races in the country. We can build a path to victory, but only if we build the foundation and the momentum necessary to get the word out.

Early investments will play a critical role in our ability to flip this seat and elect a majority that fights for hard-working families. We have a $50,000 must-hit fundraising goal and we need your help to hit it. Will you rush a contribution of $25 or whatever you can spare to our campaign right now?
