CA-08 by the numbers:

Hey there, John.  We’re heading into the peak of the general election season. We’ve come a long way over the last year, and at times, it feels like we’ve hardly stopped for a break. So today, I wanted to hit pause and highlight some incredible stats since our launch. With your help, …

Join Us: Statewide Day of Action to elect me, Chris Bubser!

John --  By now, we all know that I have one of the best shots to flip another CA House seat from red to blue. That’s why this Sunday, July 19th, the California Democratic Party is organizing a statewide Day of Action to raise awareness with CA-08 voters about my campaign! Volunteers…

Chris needs YOU this Sunday: Big Day of Action for CA-08

Hi John! This Sunday, July 19th, is a big Day of Action for Chris, hosted by the California Democratic Party and our friends at the Coordinated Campaign for San Bernardino County. This is, by far, the most important volunteer opportunity yet of the general election, and we really do need ALL HANDS…

Trump is attacking our national parks.

John,  There’s nothing I look forward to more in the summer than having the opportunity to spend time exploring the national parks and federal lands surrounding CA-08. It’s especially important this year after being cooped up due to the pandemic. California’s parks aren’t just good f…

Last week’s incident

John --   I wanted to take a moment to address an upsetting incident that occurred last week. I think it’s worth discussing, because it’s emblematic of a larger problem of hatred and ugliness in our society and our politics. My campaign was holding a virtual event on Zoom with Congre…

Happy Fourth!

John,  I want to wish you a very Happy Fourth of July. Even if celebrations look a little different than usual this year, I’m grateful to spend it with my family, and to be able to take a day and reflect on what America means to me. I’m reminded of the reasons that I got into this ra…

The news we needed.

John --   After a tough spring, this news is just what the doctor ordered: We met our quarterly fundraising goal! It was a close one, and I can’t thank you enough for all of your generous contributions over the past three months -- but especially over this past week when we came to …

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

John -- Thank you so much for your birthday wishes today! I’ve had a great day and am now celebrating with my family. My heart is full thanks to all of you. Before we cut the cake, I wanted to ask you one last time if you could chip in before we close the books on our FEC fundraising deadline -- …

Just hours left. Rush a donation >>

This is it, John!  We only have eight hours left before we close the books on our fundraising quarter. We haven’t quite hit our goal yet, but if every single member of this grassroots team can chip in before the books close, we can get there. Would you take a moment to check your sup…

Happy birthday, Chris!

John,  Today is a big day for two reasons. First, it’s Chris’s birthday! It also happens to be our FEC fundraising deadline. At midnight tonight, we’ll submit our numbers for the quarter and they’ll become public information. Before we submit, we still have a little ways to go to hit…

Difficult to understate how important this is

Hey John, Charlie here, Chris’s Political Director. I wanted to check in with an update since we now have just one day before our big end-of-quarter fundraising deadline. We’re still running a little short of our goal. Could you chip in a donation of any amount to help us hit our mar…

The candidates we believe in.

John --  There's no doubt that Donald Trump’s actions this past year have underscored the need for new leadership that is willing to hold the far-right accountable in Washington. That’s why I’m taking the time to personally reach out on behalf of candidates I believe in -- particular…

Quick update:

John --  Before we kick off a busy week (and before your inboxes get flooded!) I wanted to quickly check in about Tuesday’s FEC fundraising deadline. As a reminder, this will be our very first FEC deadline in our General Election fight to flip CA-08. We’re hoping to make an impressio…

Proud of my mom

Hey John! This is Sam, Chris's son. Usually, I’m away at college, but I had to fly back this spring because of COVID-19. I’ve been able to see my mom’s campaign up close for the first time in a while, and I must say I’ve been blown away by how hard she and her team are working, and by…

Why I’m asking.

John --  My team has emailed quite a bit over the last few days, so I wanted to take a moment to explain why these messages are so important to our campaign. Here's the truth: I'm running for Congress because our CA-08 community needs a champion -- now more than ever. With all the ch…

Let’s elect Chris Bubser!

John --  Like so many Americans across this country, I’ve been fired up about protecting our democracy over the past few years. I realized that the only way we’re going to get our country back on track is if we all roll up our sleeves together, and I’ve been proud to be in the fight t…

Our best shot at flipping another CA House seat.

John, As we close in on our June 30th FEC fundraising deadline, we wanted to make sure you had the latest updates in our fight to flip California’s 8th: Just before the primary election, our opponent Jay Obernolte was endorsed by President Trump himself. Ever since, Obernolte has be…

Re: our opponent’s Trump endorsement.

Hey John, I'm reaching out because in less than one week we’re up against a critical FEC fundraising deadline in our campaign to flip California’s 8th district. Since this is our first filing deadline of the General Election, it will be the first time my fundraising numbers are compa…

My father was my role model

Hi John, Today, we celebrate the fathers and father figures in our lives. Of course, my thoughts are with my father John, who passed away two years ago. My mother’s recent passing makes this the first year that I’ll celebrate Father’s Day without either of my parents. It’s hard, but …

SIGN ON: We need to pass the Equality Act.

Things are changing in CA-08.

I’ll get right to it, John. With Trump plummeting in the polls, my race is quickly becoming the Democrats’ BEST SHOT to flip another Republican House seat in California. But I’m running against a multi-millionaire self-funder, and we’re tracking behind our weekly fundraising goal. Can…

We have a chance to flip one more House seat in California.

John --  One of the things I’ve learned over the years as an activist is that we can often make the most difference right in our own backyards. That’s why I pay the most attention to the races close to home where I think grassroots donors can make the biggest impact. In 2018, we put …

Making sure you saw this.

  John -- I wanted to make sure you got this update from my team. Earlier this week, my opponent Jay Obernolte refused to wear a mask at a well-attended committee meeting -- putting dozens of lives at risk. Normally, I wouldn't be so fired up about this. But over the years Jay has di…

Just two more from xxxxxx.

Here’s what we’re up against, John: Chris’s opponent Jay Obernolte is a self-funder who has given his campaign $1.2 million between loans and pure contributions. He’s also been endorsed by President Trump -- which gives the entire GOP establishment the signal to support him further. …
