John,

Have you forgotten about the invasion of swamp rats in the Valley?

Of course not, these 40-pound, nacho cheese-toothed nutria can never be forgotten.

These invasive rodents can breed up to 600 offspring a year and a few years ago scientists predicted they were on track to destroy the Central Valley. It was a huge problem for our farmers and water infrastructure. So I led the charge to get this invasion under control.

I wrote a bill, brought Nellie the nutria to Congress to lobby my colleagues, and our bill was signed into law!

Now, here’s the big update. Look what’s happened since:

We did it! There aren’t many things for us to celebrate these days, but I’ll take a win when I can get one…

I promise you I’ll never back down from getting results for our community - whether it’s taking on swamp rats in the Valley or in Washington D.C.

Consider this a warning to any other swamp creatures coming for the Valley!

- Josh

 

P.S. I can’t keep taking on the swamp rats without your help. Will you please chip in to my re-election so I can clean up the swamp in Washington and continue scoring big wins for the Central Valley in Congress?
