John,
When you take a look at who's been funding Kevin McCarthy over the years, it starts to make sense why he continues to put corporate and radical special interests ahead of the people of the Central Valley:
❌ Big Oil: Ever wonder why Kevin McCarthy was so quick to blame inflation and Democrats for rising oil prices? The proof is in the paycheck: oil companies have given McCarthy's campaign a whopping $55,000 in the last year to ensure he'll advocate for them in Congress instead of his own constituents who are paying the price at the pump.
❌ Big Tobacco: Kevin McCarthy and Big Tobacco's relationship is pretty simple: they give him thousands of dollars (over $30K this year alone), and he does their bidding in Congress. Back when Juul's and other flavored e-cigs first hit the market, McCarthy was part of the committee that limited the FDA's ability to protect our nation's children from these products when they first hit store shelves.
❌ Big Pharma: If you were hoping for the cost of your prescription drugs to go down under McCarthy's leadership, think again. The more money pharmaceutical companies make, the more they donate to Kevin McCarthy's campaign war chest -- so you can bet he'll be doing their bidding in Congress instead of yours.
These special interest groups have a HUGE stake in keeping Kevin McCarthy in Congress in 2022. I'm depending on individual donors to flip this seat, so defeating him depends on your grassroots support:
Will you chip in $5 to help us keep pace with Kevin McCarthy's dark money machine? I'm not taking a cent from corporate PAC or special interest groups. I'm running for Congress to fight for YOU.

Thanks, John! I appreciate all that you do.
