John, I have been traveling across the district to meet with parents, seniors, educators, and veterans to hear their top concerns directly.

Here is what I hear most: Families are being priced out of the essentials, like healthcare and housing. At the dinner table, they worry about economic instability, Trump's war with Iran, and the future their children will inherit. Rising tariffs, tax cuts for the wealthiest, and severe reductions to essential federal programs are making life harder across this district. Even the Department of Education is being taken apart like a fire sale, at the expense of our most vulnerable students.

Trump's agenda only delivers for billionaires, corporations, and AI data centers — not working families struggling to keep up.

I have solutions, and my record reflects that. When Democrats held the majority, we passed major infrastructure investments, provided essential pandemic relief, and expanded support for veterans. Now, much of that progress is being rolled back.

Elections are about math. You cannot lose one seat and gain another, which means every seat counts — and this one is never safe. The NRCC has poured late money into this race before. I fully expect them to do it again, targeting our competitive district as a prime pickup opportunity.

We are not stopping now, when so much is at stake for our families. Please chip in $10, $25, or whatever you can today to help power us through these final 49 days of the election. [[link removed]]
