Hi John,
I recently gave my “maiden speech” in the Senate, reflecting on my first
year as a United States Senator.
I want to share a part of that speech with you — [ [link removed] ]but first, I am humbly
asking you to chip in to help power our continued work to deliver for
every family, every Californian, and every American on a promise of a
better, fairer future.

Let me tell you a little about who I am that may differ from the version
many Americans see on Fox, or in the President’s social media feed, and
what I have done to introduce myself to my 40 million new constituents.
Because I intend to be a Senator for all Californians. In the red areas
and the blue, and everywhere else in between. That’s one reason I sought
to join the Senate Agriculture Committee — the first time in more than 30
years that our nation’s largest agriculture-producing state has had a seat
at that table.
I have traveled the state on planes, trains, automobiles, and even boats,
visiting nearly half of California’s 58 counties — including some of the
most conservative parts of our state. I’ve toured almond orchards and
cilantro fields, health clinics and food banks, and affordable housing
developments.
I even took part in an ill-advised game of dice at a bar in Los Baños —
while drinking a bitter Dutch liqueur — which I will not be repeating.
Wherever I go, I’ve asked Californians the same question: how can I help?
Now it is certainly true, depending on where I am in the Golden State,
that sometimes I have to break through the caricatures of me on right-wing
media, and that can be a challenge. But it is one I very much enjoy. There
is nothing more fun in politics than upsetting people’s expectations.
I knew, for example, that I was making progress when a farmer in
conservative Butte County told me after an hour-long meeting: “I don’t
know why the President calls you ‘watermelon head.’ You have a perfectly
normal-size head!”
And that comes from a farmer who knows a thing or two about melons.
Traveling across California has only underscored that it is the honor of a
lifetime to serve the state I so deeply love in the Senate.
One year down, much more work to go. But there is no job I love more than
serving the people of California. I wake up every morning so deeply
grateful for the opportunity to meet with people across the state, asking,
“how can I help?”
Your support has made this work possible,
John. For that, I am forever
grateful.
Thank you for having my back,
Adam
