Do you have a plan?

john, Eligible voters across Washington are casting their ballots ahead of our August 4 Primary Election! Once your ballot arrives, you can fill it out and return it right away. You don't have to wait until Election Day. That's why we're amping up our voter outreach now, because people are alr…

We're 20 days away.

There are just 20 days left until our August 4 primary election, john. Our primary isn't the finish line—it's the first step. I could give you a hundred reasons as to why we need to turn out strong. Instead, I'll give you just one: America can't afford to wait any longer for new leadership in the…

We only get one chance

21 days, john. That's all the time we have left until Washington's August 4 primary. You only get one final stretch in a campaign. Once a day passes, there's no getting it back. That's why these next 21 days are so important. Kim has never taken this district or its voters for granted. She …

22 days.

john, With less than a month until our August 4th primary, every day counts. Right now, Kim is spending these final weeks talking to voters across WA-08, knocking on doors, making phone calls, and making sure people know what's at stake in this election. This is the make or break part of a …

The less glamorous side of politics.

john, as Kim's campaign manager, I spend a lot of my day looking at spreadsheets, budgets, fundraising reports, and campaign plans. It's not the glamorous side of politics, but it's the work that helps make everything else possible. And I'll be the first to tell you: Every event Kim attends. …

Not to brag, but…

With so much chaos coming out of D.C. these days, it can be easy to miss things, john. While some politicians spend their time adding to the endless fingerpointing and fearmongering, Kim has been focused on what matters: delivering results. Since coming to Congress, Kim has: * held over 130 t…

Republicans *genuinely* think they're about to get off scot-free

john, Speaker Mike Johnson recently said he's "convinced we're going to defy history and keep the majority here so we can keep all this going..." But let's look at the facts, shall we?... FIRST: Donald Trump and his Republican allies spent months telling Americans not to worry. They downpla…

We can't slow down

john, It's Sunday, so we will keep this brief. We're falling a bit behind on our $20,000 mid-month goal, and we can’t afford to miss it. We didn’t choose $20,000 randomly; it's the amount we need to raise to fully fund our field program this summer, start producing our ads, and show MAGA Re…

We can't let MAGA Republicans rig the midterms

RFK Jr. has caused only carnage since his time as HHS Secretary.
