John,

Since I won my primary, people who've spent their careers in politics keep giving me the same advice: keep your head down, avoid tough questions, and save my resources so the TV ads can do the talking in October.

We're doing things differently.

I grew up working in my family's auto shop in Bakersfield. When I wasn't in school, I was there, and by the time I was a teenager I was doing oil changes and brake jobs on weekends. And it's why I know a cautious, fence-sitting campaign can’t win here.

Washington consultants assume Central Valley voters aren't paying attention, when the truth is we've never been given a reason to show up. Families in this district have been overlooked by campaigns that talk at us through a television screen.

Our team is knocking a record number of doors and having real conversations, because real trust here gets built face-to-face. And we're doing it without taking a dime of corporate PAC money, because that’s the moment you start answering to influences other than your community.

With less than two months until Election Day, we are making real strides, but it’s crucial that we keep it funded. Can you chip in $3 today to help us keep our team on the doors and our message in front of voters?
