It’s Caroline, Dr. Ruiz’s finance director.

I wish I had better news — but we’re behind.

The summer slump is real. Donations have slowed way down, and we’re short of our $5,000 mid-month fundraising goal and the deadline is tonight at midnight.

This couldn’t be happening at a worse time.

Redistricting could come into play soon here in California. If the lines shift, we could be looking at a dramatically different CA-25. That means new voters, new challenges, and a real risk of losing ground if we’re not ready.

To compete — and win — we need to be in the strongest position possible now. That means building resources to reach new voters, expand our ground game, and fight for every inch of this district.

Falling short now means falling behind when it matters most.

Can you chip in $10 to help us hit our $5,000 mid-month fundraising goal by tonight at midnight and make sure Dr. Ruiz is ready for whatever redistricting brings?

If you've stored your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will process immediately.
