I wanted to make sure that you saw Gil’s email from earlier today, John, because this message is too important to ignore: We’ve already lost once in Southern California this year, and we can’t -- our democracy can’t -- afford to lose again. The only way that races like Gil’s and Christy’s are going to be victorious in 11 days is with a groundswell of support from grassroots donors like you, John. Can they count on you to join dozens of others from Philadelphia in investing in our democracy? >> If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately.

I won’t sugarcoat it: This was a tough loss. But more important than the loss itself, John, is the fact that Republicans saw this as an opportunity to flip CA red and pick up other seats in the region. They’re doing everything in their power to flip my seat and keep Christy’s red. I haven’t a doubt that we have a shot at flipping CA-25 back to blue in 11 days. But the simple fact is that we can only run people-powered campaigns like ours with your help. Can you rush a split donation to my and Christy’s campaign immediately? >> If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately.
John, your investment in my race and others crystalizes that you recognize -- and Christy and I do, too -- the imperative of investing in the future of our community here in Southern California. You recognize the importance of a democracy that uplifts folks who are too often overlooked by career politicians. That’s why I’m writing to you again today, 11 days out from Election Day, to ask you to invest once again in our campaigns for sustained progress. John, your donation is a referendum on some of the most important issues facing our community: increased access to affordable health care for all, lowered prescription drug costs, and protected Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately.
Thank you so much, John. You're the engine of these operations -- and neither Christy nor I could do this without you. -- Gil |
