Mike Garcia's "accomplishments" in the 117th Congress

Christy Smith for Congress     John, Less than a month into the 117th Congress, Mike Garcia has already proved just how dedicated he is to serving our district and standing up for our country. On January 6th -- after Trump-inspired insurrectionists took over the U.S. Capitol, Mike voted t…

Why we NEED to #FlipThe25th

Christy Smith for Congress     John, I wouldn't have believed you if you'd told me what would happen, four years ago today. Even as I was angry and scared and ready to run for office to stand up for the values I saw threatened, I wouldn't have believed it could really be this bad. We cann…

Will you add your name and demand Trump's immediate removal from office?

Christy Smith for Congress     John, Donald Trump has never been worthy of the office he holds. But his actions last week, inciting an insurrection against the United States Congress, prove that it is too dangerous to allow him to remain in the White House for the duration of his term. D…
