Folks,
The White House says activists who are demanding Democrats do more to restore and permanently protect abortion rights are “out of step with the mainstream of the Democratic Party.”
I’ve been an activist for 30 years, fighting to end forever wars, pass universal healthcare, stop the climate crisis, and much more. And when I talk to abortion rights advocates who’ve been in the trenches of this fight, I certainly don’t think their ideas are radical.
I wondered who was really out of step here. So I looked up a few statistics. It turns out that progressive policies, including abortion rights and court reform, are unbelievably popular with the American people – and especially with Democratic voters.
Looking at the policies, among Democratic voters:
- 80% support single payer healthcare
- 91% support raising the federal minimum wage
- 85% support codifying Roe
- 57% support abolishing the filibuster (that number is rising)
- 64% support expanding the Supreme Court
If anyone is out of step here, it’s Democrats who’ve been in power for DECADES and refused to fight for working people and families.
I’ve been an activist and organizer for 30 years. I’m a former teacher, a union leader, and a working class dad. I’m running for Congress to fight for working families like yours and mine. Will you pitch in to help me win this seat in WA-02?

This is a make-or-break moment for our democracy – and our planet. Radical right-wing forces are organizing to take over state and local seats even in solid progressive states like Washington, and we can’t give them even a single foothold.
Right now there are seven Republicans – each more extreme than the last – and one independent running in this primary against me and the 22-year incumbent, Rick Larsen.
Washington’s top-two primary system means we can shut down the reactionary right-wing candidates NOW by putting two Democrats on the November ballot to help drive Democratic turnout for downballot races.
In 2020 my team came within 1% of defeating the top performing Republican and winning this primary. This year, our campaign is firing on all cylinders. We’ve raised FAR more than any of Rick Larsen’s challengers, and we’ve knocked well over twice as many doors as the incumbent.
If we’re going to stop the right-wing takeover of our government, we need leaders who support the bold, progressive policies that the majority of Americans want.
Rick Larsen is completely out of step with his voter base, and I need your help to defeat him in November. Can you pitch in to our 100% people-powered campaign today?
Solidarity,
Jason Call
