Hey there — I just wanted to check in quickly.

First of all, I hope you’ve had the chance to rest and relax over these last few days. Or, if you happen to be raising three young kids like I am, your holidays were, well… a little bit less crazy than usual.

But I have to be honest: I’ve barely relaxed at all this week. Because in a district as important as mine, there really are no off days.

In just three days, our final FEC deadline of the year arrives — but this isn’t just another fundraising goal. It’s going to lay the foundation for everything that happens next year.

Donald Trump is watching us. Elon Musk is watching us. And, they’re breathing down our necks right now, searching high and low for any signs of weakness within our campaign. If our numbers show any vulnerability when they go public?

I don’t even want to imagine what they’ll do.

I’m sorry to interrupt your time with family and loved ones with a fundraising request. But this deadline really is that important. We have to show Trump and Musk that California is NOT for sale. Please, will you rush a donation before time runs out?

Grateful for everything you do,

Dave Min
