New year, new district

As the first month of 2022 draws to a close, I wanted to provide a quick update about the new Congressional district I’ll be running in and what we can expect our campaign to look like this year. The new 24th district lines shift south, and I am excited to have the opportunity to represent new c…

Protecting abortion rights

As unbelievable as it may seem, the Supreme Court appears to be poised to overturn Roe v. Wade nearly five decades after it became the law of the land. As a member of the Pro-Choice Caucus, I have always fought for and will continue to fight for women’s rights to reproductive freedom and safe, l…

Before the holiday crunch

December is a busy month for many of us.  Between preparing for the holidays, finalizing our year-end giving decisions, and pausing to experience the joy of the season, we understand that keeping up with political campaigns may not be a priority for many this time of year. But our campaign is no…

Happy Thanksgiving!

As our nation prepares to enjoy a day of giving thanks, I would like to share a few of the things I am most grateful for. First and foremost, I am thankful for my strong and loving family. I am also thankful that our country has made progress in our battle against COVID-19, and that those who a…

Thank you for the birthday wishes!

Some spooky scenarios!

  We’re kicking off this Halloween with a trick by giving you a couple of spooky scenarios to imagine:    Spooky Scenario #1:           Our campaign fails to meet its October fundraising goal, catches the attention of national Republicans and causes them to invest millions in our district    S…

A changing political landscape

There is no question that our political landscape is changing, and because of it, we cannot afford to take anything for granted. Due to redistricting, voter suppression and shifting national political dynamics, we just can’t count on any seats being “safe” anymore.  As an example, look no furth…

We know how easy it is to procrastinate before a big deadline, but the final day of our quarter is finally here.  You may have been meaning to contribute but just haven’t had a chance, so we wanted to reach out one more time before our books close tonight. Will you take a minute to help protect …

John, Last week, my team emailed you about our upcoming fundraising deadline.  We hoped their request would help us reach our goal, but now, just two days out, we are still coming up short. So today I’m coming to you with a personal request:  Will you please chip in $5 or more before Thursday’s …

If you’ve been a supporter of Salud Carbajal for Congress for a while, chances are you know all about the importance of our fundraising quarters and the Federal Election Committee (FEC) reports we have to file four times a year.  But if you’re new to our team, let us take a moment to explain. At…

So much at stake

Californians had a lot to celebrate last week.  On Tuesday, common sense prevailed and voters soundly rejected the recall of Governor Newsom. Voters saw what was happening in other states under Republican leadership  -- fights over mask mandates, rising COVID cases, women losing the right to mak…

We must make Ron DeSantis a one-term governor

John, Gov. Ron DeSantis isn’t building a Florida for All. He’s building a Florida for Ron. Every action he takes, and every decision he makes is geared toward helping his political ambitions. As COVID-19 ravages Florida, DeSantis has jumped into national culture wars by courting anti-vaxxer co…

In the campaign world, it’s no secret that summer is the most challenging season to fundraise in.  But if you know us, you know we’re always up for a challenge, and, with the House majority on the line, there is no time to fall behind.  To match our July 2020 digital fundraising goal, we need ov…

It’s hard to believe that we’ll be wrapping up the first half of the year soon.  It seems like just yesterday we were counting down the final minutes of 2020! Congressman Carbajal and his colleagues have had a busy year so far.  In short, over the last six months they were able to: Pass the Am…
