Our first-in-the-nation endorsement of Katie Porter's Senate campaign was covered by lots of national news media:

THE HILL: Within minutes of announcing her campaign, she scored an endorsement from Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC), an influential liberal group.

ROLL CALL: Porter quickly won the endorsement of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee

WASHINGTON POST: The Progressive Change Campaign Committee, a Warren-endorsed PAC, on Tuesday said it would endorse Porter for Senate, noting its members had donated more than $400,000 for Porter’s congressional campaigns.

KATIE PORTER'S EMAIL:

See my big announcement? I’m running for U.S. Senate in California. Watch my campaign launch video here. Then, chip in to become a founding member of this campaign!

I have some big news. I’m running for the U.S. Senate!

I’m running because huge corporations are making record profits while more and more families can’t afford necessities.

I’m running because my kids had to ask me if they were safe at school after a shooting in a nearby church.

I’m running because extremist politicians could ban abortion nationwide if they win just a few more Senate seats.

I’m running because our country isn’t working for the majority of working people.

The PCCC has always been one of my strongest partners. They have been with me since the beginning, helped me mobilize grassroots supporters in my campaigns, and worked with me in Congress to protect consumers against corporate cheats and fight for parents and working people. We are ready to do big things together in this race for U.S. Senate.

John, I want you on this team. Can you become a Founding Donor of my U.S. Senate campaign today?

Republicans funded by big corporate interests have rigged the game against families, making it difficult to get ahead. The elected leaders we send to Washington must be accountable to the people they represent, and they must prove to voters that democracy can work for them.

I’ve spent my career -- both before and after being elected to the House -- delivering for working people and protecting taxpayers.

In the House, I was the only Democrat to oppose "earmarks," which are a way to fund Member's pet projects.

I’m leading the fight to ban congressional stock trading.

The whiteboard you may have seen me bring to hearings is more than a fun prop -- my questioning of witnesses in congressional hearings secured free COVID testing for every American, helped us pass bills that lower costs for families, and showed how corporate profits are driving inflation.

Before I ran for office, I was a consumer protection advocate, and I worked directly with California families who were cheated by the five biggest Wall Street banks prior to the 2008 mortgage crisis. I held the banks' feet to the fire and won thousands of victories against the banks, forcing them to pay California families billions.

I wouldn’t be running if I didn’t know that, together, we have what it takes to win, and more importantly, to serve the people of California.

But as Elizabeth Warren taught me, nobody wins alone. This will be a competitive and expensive race, and I’d be so honored to have your support.

Can you make a contribution today and become a Founding Donor to our campaign?

I’m so grateful to have you on our team.
