[ [link removed] ]Katie Porter for Senate

John,

I couldn’t be more excited about my first endorsement of the year: Katie
Porter is running to represent Californians in the U.S. Senate, and she
has my full support.

I want to share more about why I’m supporting Katie below, but if you’re
on board now and ready to help kickstart Katie’s campaign for Senate,
[ [link removed] ]please chip in if you can. As an early supporter, you’d help ensure
Katie has the resources she needs to build a winning campaign.

I met Katie long before either of us imagined we’d be serving as elected
officials. She was one of my law students, studying consumer law. Even
then, she showed a deep-down commitment to making a difference in people’s
lives.

I still remember the first day we met. My class was held early in the
morning, meaning a lot of students had their heads down, trying to avoid
being called on. But not Katie. She was determined and ready to go. When
the first answer she gave wasn’t her strongest, she came to my office
hours and said, “Please keep calling on me. I am going to learn to do
this.”

Years later, in 2012, then-Attorney General of California Kamala Harris
secured a settlement of $18 billion from our country’s biggest banks for
their predatory lending practices that spurred the 2008 housing crisis.
She asked if I knew anyone who could work as an “independent monitor” to
make sure the Big Banks actually paid California families the money they
were now owed. It was a massive undertaking, but I knew just the person
for the job: my former student Katie Porter. She served as a watchdog over
Wall Street banks and held their feet to the fire to ensure California
families received the billions they were owed.

When she decided to run for Congress in 2018, I was very happy to support
her. I knew that we needed more people like Katie in Washington — who
understood the real experiences that working families faced, who had the
courage to stand up to big corporations and special interests, and who
would fight to make our government work for everyone, not just the rich
and powerful. A Democrat hadn’t represented her district for decades, but
she knew exactly how to personally connect with voters, build a strong
movement, and win. She flipped that seat, and she’s been winning for
working people ever since.

Simply put, Katie delivers. She’s smart and she isn’t afraid. She stands
up to Wall Street and Big Pharma, she holds fossil fuel companies
accountable, and she fights to protect our rights. She is exactly who
Californians need as their next Senator, and I’m proud to endorse her.

[ [link removed] ]We need her (and her whiteboard) in the Senate. And we want you on our
team. Just like she always has, she’s running a people-powered campaign.
I’d be so grateful if you could make a donation today to support her
campaign for Senate.

Thanks for being a part of this,

Elizabeth Warren

P.S. I just have to share this old photo of us from when I first got to
know Katie. I’ve been a fan of hers for years and years, and it would be a
great honor to serve alongside Katie in the Senate in the next chapter of
her career.
