Why I think Joe is CA-40’s best hope.

Hi there John, Governor Gavin Newsom here – and I have something to share about Joe Kerr, CA-40’s Democratic nominee for Congress.  Not only is Joe a veteran firefighter, a longtime labor leader, and my friend, but he’s also the best chance we have at ousting right-wing extremist Young Kim. That’s …

I’m 100% pro-choice, my opponent can’t say the same.

Hi John,  I have some pretty big news to share: Planned Parenthood Action Fund has officially endorsed my campaign for Congress!  At a time when reproductive rights are on the line and access to abortion grows increasingly limited state-by-state, it is a relief to have organizations like Planned Pa…

John, We’ll keep this short:   Our democracy is under attack. Republican extremists like Young Kim are only adding fuel to the fire. Luckily Joe Kerr knows how to put those out.  We have exactly FIVE days until our first end-of-quarter deadline since Joe won the primary election and became the offi…

A race to watch.

John, This November, we’re facing one of the most crucial elections of our time.  And something you may or may not know about this race:   CA-40 is closer than ever to flipping blue, trending faster than any other district in the state. In fact, the DCCC named CA-40 one of the “House Democrats’ Dis…
