John, in a moment, I’m going to ask you to chip in just $5 [[link removed]] to help me defeat Kevin McCarthy in my race for Congress. But first, let me explain the biggest difference between McCarthy and I.

I’m not a career politician, John. My opponent, Kevin McCarthy sure is!

Kevin McCarthy started his political career at just 22 years old. He spent the first 15 years of his career in Washington DC working for Republican Congressman Bill Thomas. After working for Thomas, McCarthy learned enough about working the political system to enrich himself, his friends, and the corporations funding his campaign.

McCarthy’s nearly four-decade-long political career deeply entrenched him in the Republican establishment. Despite being elected to serve the constituents of the Central Valley, he has never delivered on making our communities safer, healthier, or more habitable for future generations.

The Central Valley and High Desert have had ENOUGH of McCarthy’s lies, deceit, and lack of accountability. If you’re ready to send someone to Congress who will FIGHT for our communities and improve our lives, please chip in $5 or more to my campaign today. [[link removed]]

I’ve been a teacher in the Central Valley and High Desert for over 20 years.

Being a successful Member of Congress is all about teaching and learning. I plan to help teach our community about how policies made in Washington are directly impacting them, and I will keep an open ear to learn about the issues happening right here in the Central Valley and High Desert that you need me to fight for.

Here’s the harsh truth: Running against Kevin McCarthy is expensive. We’re competing with special interests like big oil, tobacco, and pharma that are funding McCarthy’s campaign. I’m not taking a cent from corporate PACs or special interests, so I need your help to keep up with their dark money machine:

Please chip in $5 or anything you can to give us a fighting chance to defeat McCarthy. A career politician like him has no place representing the Central Valley or High Desert. [[link removed]]
