14 days to go

  Friend, there are just 14 days until Election Day! With just 2 weeks to go, it's crunch time. We're hard at work reaching every single voter possible. Can you help us? This election is a pivotal moment for our community and our country. We know Georgette will fight for our w…

No justice without climate justice

  Friend, 48 years ago today, the Clean Water Act became a U.S. federal law. This was a landmark piece of legislation -- one that finally pushed states to address pollution and provide crucial funding for wetland protection. The passage of this law was a win for our nation and a nec…

A grassroots campaign

  Let's talk about money, friend, When it comes to campaigning for an election, it's not just about the amount of money that is made, but about where the money comes from. My opponent funds her campaign with money from her trust fund. The latest FEC report shows that more than 86% of…

History in the making

  Friend, We’ll cut to the chase. Time is ticking, and we now have 18 days left to make history. Georgette stands to be the first LGBTQ+ Latina representative in Congress. The power and meaningfulness in this should not be taken lightly. On November 3rd, this incredible campaign, wit…

Shameful

  Team, Last night, our opponent released an offensive ad comparing Georgette with Donald Trump. To compare Georgette -- a first-generation Mexican-American, a woman running to be the first LGBTQ+ Latina in Congress, with our offensive, sexist, homophobic president -- is completely o…

Let’s set the record straight

  Friend, My opponent released an attack ad last night comparing us to Donald Trump and accusing us of using “Trump tactics.” Here’s what we’re not going to do: Attack her back using false claims and accusations. Here’s what we are going to do: Talk about reality. The truth. Where I…

Election Day is 20 days away

  Team, We’re approaching the most pivotal moment of this entire campaign. We’ve got 20 days until Election Day, and our opponent has poured her and her family’s millions of dollars into funding her campaign. That's not the way Georgette is running her campaign. She knows what it’s…
