[ [link removed] ]Adam Schiff for Senate
California is the least represented state in the U.S. Senate,
John.
No, that’s not a hyperbole or some sort of myth — with our state’s
population of 39.2 million people, California’s two Senators sometimes
represent five, ten, or even forty times as many people as some smaller
states. Folks from all walks of life, all backgrounds, all with their own
stories and vision for our state’s future.
Is that fair? No, it’s not.
And it underscores the larger challenge our democracy faces. Thanks to
Republican gerrymandering, the minority party can control the number of
seats they occupy in the House. By overweighting rural areas in the
Senate, a minority of Americans often control the Senate. And because of
the Electoral College, a minority of Americans often control the White
House. On top of all that, our Supreme Court is now the least
representative body in the country.
That’s why it’s so important our next senator be a dedicated fighter who
isn’t afraid to stand up to GOP leaders and who is willing to take the
difficult but necessary steps to protect our democracy.
Steps like abolishing the Senate filibuster. Steps like expanding the
Supreme Court. Steps like overturning Citizens United. Steps like passing
DC statehood.
Our democracy has been tilting dangerously toward authoritarianism and
autocracy. We need to revitalize it for the 21st century.

serve California in the U.S. Senate. It’s more important than ever that
our senators fight for our democracy every day — and that’s exactly what
I’ll do.

At a certain point we have to say: If the majority of Americans aren’t
helping shape the future of our country because of structural impediments
or lack of representation, how long can our democracy really thrive?
I hope we don’t have to answer that question.
