more news to share...

John, Wanted to share an important update on our race. Redistricting maps are now 100% final, and to be honest, the results are mixed for our race. The commission decided to split CA-10 into 3 parts, so Pam and I had to make a tough decision about where to run. Happy to share I’ve…

Democracy is at risk

John, If we learned anything from 2021, it’s that our democracy is dangerously at risk. The radical right-wing of the GOP and QAnon conspiracy theorists are tearing at the fabric of our country, and they are only 5 seats away from taking control of Congress. It’s that serious. My …

John, By now, you've probably seen that a certain senator from West Virginia is once again holding up President Biden’s Build Back Better legislation. I know this is a big disappointment for a lot of us who have been fighting for the incredibly important policies in this bill. And …

John, Here in California we’re dealing with some crazy price hikes - especially the cost of gas ($5 a gallon?!) One of the causes for many of these crazy prices is a big backlog at our ports. And unlike some of my colleagues who get on TV and just complain, I actually wanted to do …

Hey John, I just checked ActBlue and we’ve really taken a hit in fundraising over the last few days. I’m thinking maybe it’s because of the holidays? I would hate to think that it’s because Devin Nunes said he’s resigning rather than running against Josh, because we’re still Republi…
