John,

$22.28.

That's the average grassroots donation to this campaign.

I knew that we were building a strong grassroots movement to flip this district but we have something truly special.

I have no doubt that California's 25th District will elect a representative who will bring our values to Congress -- who won't stop fighting until we have a democracy that works for everybody. I've seen donations come in from teachers and union plumbers -- from stay-at-home moms and healthcare workers.

Because of YOUR help, we have been able to stand up for those who have been left by the wayside due to our opponents who are using force to accomplish their personal goals. We also now have the resources to launch our campaign's message out to more folks than before.

Every single donation has gotten us closer to flipping this district but Mike Garcia is still outraising us because he's willing to take money from corporate PACs and special interests -- we're not.

Will you be a part of our grassroots movement and pitch in $22.28 or whatever you can afford for our campaign?

If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately:


By building up our local economy and schools, we are fostering a stronger community. We are providing opportunities at every level -- from getting kids the latest textbooks and newest technologies to making sure working families have access to affordable healthcare and a prosperous future.

We are building and scaling a powerful campaign and we are going to need you to join our grassroots movement.

So John, if you're ready for the right kind of leadership, we'll tell you just why Mike Garcia is the wrong choice to represent the 25th district in Congress, but if you don't need convincing, click here to chip in $22.28 -- or whatever you can -- to send him packing.

It's time for the people of California to have a real representative in Congress.
