John,

I wanted to make sure you saw Jon’s email from yesterday about three critical U.S. House races.

Jon is traveling across the country to rally support for Social Security champions. Last week, he held packed endorsement events with Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA), Rep. Mike Levin (D-CA), and Christy Smith, Democratic candidate for Congress.

All three candidates are running against Republicans who want to cut and destroy our earned Social Security and Medicare benefits.

We need to make sure that Social Security champions Katie Porter, Mike Levin, and Christy Smith win their U.S. House races. Chip in $5 to support their campaigns today!

Thank you,

Alex Lawson

John,

While many U.S. House seats are heavily gerrymandered to favor the incumbent, there are several races that political pundits are keeping a close eye on. And we’re not taking a single one for granted!

That’s why, last week, I held packed endorsement events with three Social Security champions: Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA), Rep. Mike Levin (D-CA), and Christy Smith, Democratic candidate for Congress.

Porter and Levin are both running for re-election in purple districts, while Smith is taking on Rep. Mike Garcia (R-CA) in the most competitive House race in the country.

To protect and expand Social Security, we need all of them to win their races this November!

Rep. Mike Levin is another key Social Security champion. A newspaper once asked Levin why he opposes raising the retirement age for “entitlements”, and he responded:

"I opposed the term entitlement. I think it’s an earned benefit. I think that when I look at my grandparents, my parents, think about how they were able to retire with security, I see Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid as some of the most successful programs in our nation’s history and I think we need to be doing the opposite of raising the age. We need to be strengthening the benefits."1

The best way to protect our earned benefits is for Democrats to EXPAND their House majority this November. That’s why I was thrilled to endorse Christy Smith, whose race FiveThirtyEight ranks as the most competitive in the country.

Katie Porter, Mike Levin, and Christy Smith are all taking on Republicans who want to cut our earned benefits — and they need our support. Split a contribution between their campaigns today to expand, and never cut, Social Security!
