Hi John, I’m Lauren Babb Tomlinson — a working mom, community healthcare advocate, former union organizer — and today, I’m launching my campaign for Congress in California’s 6th Congressional district.

We need a new generation of leadership in Washington — so I’m stepping up to run. And I can’t do it alone, John. We’re building a winning campaign from the ground up, and early support makes all the difference. Will you be a Founding Donor by splitting $10 between my campaign and the Voter Protection Project? Every penny helps.

John, I was raised by strong women — my whole life is shaped by it. They taught me that you take care of each other, even when times are tough. They also taught me to fight for the things that you believe in.

Throughout my career, I’ve never been afraid of a tough fight — from protecting reproductive healthcare access in California, expanding access to affordable healthcare, and ensuring that people are treated fairly in the workplace. It's been my life’s work to fight for our rights.

So while the Trump Administration continuously attacks reproductive freedoms and healthcare for millions of Californians, I’ve helped lead the efforts at Planned Parenthood to provide lifesaving medical care to thousands.

This is the new leadership we need, John — leadership that’s not afraid to fight. Leadership that’s not afraid to stand up to bullies. Leadership that knows what it’s like for a working family who are facing rising costs.

For me, it’s simple: my family always comes first. And I’m running for Congress to fight for families across our country like they’re my own to make life affordable, expand access to quality healthcare, improve wages for workers, and protect our rights.

John, it’s time for change. That’s why today, I’m announcing my run for Congress. And I’m hoping I can count on your support. Will you split a $10 donation between my campaign and the Voter Protection Project today?

In solidarity,

Lauren Babb Tomlinson
