Friend --

When I first ran for City Council in 2016, I remember being told that I didn’t have enough money to win. I was outspent 3:1 by my opponent, and many assumed I didn’t stand a chance against the other well-funded candidates in the field.

I won that race anyway.

I won because I elevated the real issues impacting our community -- affordable housing and poverty, transportation, jobs, and environmental justice. That won’t change now that I am running for Congress. This campaign is still about delivering results for San Diego families who deserve a fair shake.

There are a lot of parallels in my 2020 run. I'm running against a self-funder who -- in less than two years -- has run for Congress in two different districts spending millions. She lost her 2018 race, and now she's trying to buy this district.

Friend, I don’t have the wealthy donors to fund this campaign, but I have you. And it’s my promise that this campaign will always be about the change we can make together and for each other. That’s how we win, and it’s why your support is so crucial:

Can you chip in a donation of $10 today? I have a big end-of-quarter fundraising deadline at the end of this month, and I’m depending on grassroots support to fund this campaign.

With your support, I’ll go to Washington and keep fighting for our families, for our communities, for every single one of our residents who deserves the freedom and respect that this great country promises.

From the bottom of my heart -- thank you.
