John,

I want to tell you why your support to our campaign – even $3 – matters, especially right now:

— Last election, my opponent, aided by allies of President Trump, raised over $4 million to defeat me.

– We are expecting another expensive race in the coming months, as Trump once again escalates his attacks.

– And we may have an even more challenging race in a brand new district as a result of reapportionment.

We need to prepare right now. And I’m asking you to make a monthly contribution. Why a monthly donation? Because knowing that we have a certain amount coming in each month helps us plan ahead, prepare mail and television in advance, know when we can afford to begin our field operations, and more. Even if it is a small amount each month, your monthly contribution will give us the ability to chart our campaign expenditures all along the way.

Let me take a step back to tell you why I’m reaching out with this ask of you, and why your support is so imperative. In 2008, California voters passed Prop. 11, which created an independent citizen’s redistricting commission to draw the lines for all congressional districts.

In 2011, it drew new maps for every single district in California. That’s the right policy and something that should be replicated in every single state (and something we’re pushing for).

But it caused some members – particularly in California – to have to run against each other. Others to run in districts composed of voters who didn’t know them. And others to have to spend millions to protect against Republicans determined to make the most of the once-in-a-decade opportunity to beat Democrats.

Already, the Commission is discussing maps that would significantly change almost every single district in California, including mine. My district could be combined with another, split into many pieces, or become a more conservative seat and pit me against another Trump Republican. We just don’t know. But we do know it could be extremely difficult.

We don’t have the luxury to wait until new maps are released in January. We need to prepare right now.

Listen, last election cycle, I faced a far-right Trump opponent who raised over $4 million to defeat me. He went on TV and radio with ads attacking my character. He sent vicious attack mailers with false smears. And he spread lies and conspiracy theories about me across the district. Those took a real toll.

And this cycle, I’ll likely have to face numerous opponents only four months after we get the new maps. It could be a perfect storm, and we don’t have the luxury to wait and hope for the best.

That’s where you come in.

Even if you have never donated to our grassroots campaign before, just $3 a month could go a long way. It will allow me to introduce myself to potentially hundreds of thousands of new voters. It will allow us to invest in digital resources to reach new voters. And more.

Your support has never been more important than right now, and I need your help. Can you chip in a $3 monthly contribution to our grassroots campaign today?
