What Kevin McCarthy said about Josh

John, It’s been a week of ups and downs. Earlier this week we were pretty down hearing Devin Nunes is thinking of running against Josh. But then Josh passed the Infrastructure bill and moved Build Back Better through the House and we saw Democrats getting things done! But Democrats…

He sued Twitter over a fictional cow

John, Josh needs your support right now more than ever. Republicans are desperate to take back the House next year, and now Trump’s #1 supporter on FOX News, Devin Nunes, is leaking that he’s going to run against us if the new draft Congressional maps in California stay intact. Wi…

why I voted to censure Rep. Gosar

John, Today I voted to censure Republican Rep. Paul Gosar for inciting violence against President Biden and Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez. I’ve made it very clear where I stand: hate and violence will not be tolerated here in the halls of Congress or anywhere else in America. When I …

showdown with Devin Nunes?

John, If you would have asked me a month ago, I never would have expected this headline from the Fresno Bee: “Devin Nunes, Josh Harder could lose their seats in latest California redistricting maps” And in response, Devin Nunes leaked that he’s going to run against me here in Cali…

Devin Nunes vs. Josh Harder

Hi John, With the news of the latest draft map, we’re getting another development: Devin Nunes is planning to run against Josh. We’re doing everything we can to ramp up our campaign and meet this challenge – can you pitch in $22 right now to protect Josh’s seat in 2022?   We’l…

worst-case scenario

John – the latest draft map is out, and it’s bad news: California’s 10th is looking redder than ever. We need your help to protect Josh’s seat at all costs – can you rush in a donation right now to help us fight back against Republican gerrymandering?   The California Redistric…

It's our duty to stand up for our veterans

John – Not just today on Veterans Day, but every day, we are duty-bound to honor and thank our friends, family and community members who have so bravely served in our armed forces.  For me, like so many, today is a personal one. My grandfather served two tours in Vietnam and tol…

Big Bird...really?

John, You know what I find really crazy? I’ve heard more of my Republican colleagues taking issue with Big Bird getting vaccinated (now that it’s available for kids over the age of 5) than those calling out Rep. Gosar for inciting violence against President Biden and AOC. I will s…

1 year out

John – I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous. We’re one year out from the election, and I’m already facing GOP attacks on TV. Republicans have thrown hundreds of thousands of dollars at this race already, and they’re only going to launch more attacks the closer we get to the elect…

this is terrifying to us

John, QAnon conspiracy theorists are no longer on the fringe in the Republican Party: they’re gaining traction and winning seats. In fact, at least 10 Republicans who participated in the January 6th insurrection were elected on Tuesday. The fact that they’re winning elections despit…

my thoughts on Virginia

John, I had a gut feeling we needed to be worried about Virginia. And even with our last minute Team Harder fundraising efforts for Terry McAuliffe’s campaign, it wasn’t enough. (Thank you again for your help, the McAuliffe team was grateful). I’ll save you the think piece about ho…

redistricting fears

Hey everyone, Yesterday Josh announced a $15,000 New Voter Outreach Fund so we can be prepared for whatever chaos redistricting brings. Already we’ve seen our district get even more competitive in the first drafts that were released. We have to be ready to speak to thousands of new v…

stay calm and remain patient

John, I know there is a lot of concern right now around redistricting since California is losing a Congressional seat. The first draft map was released this week and it was what we feared - it takes my district and makes it even redder. I’m advising folks to stay calm and remain pa…

“record fundraising” for Republicans

John, The House GOP group tasked with making Kevin McCarthy the next Speaker of the House just reported another record-breaking fundraising quarter. This isn’t great news for us here on Team Harder. Since Josh is the most vulnerable Democrat in California, we know all that dark mon…

My thoughts on Liz Cheney

John, I’ll be the first to say it - Liz Cheney and I don’t agree on much of anything. Except the need to protect our democracy from Donald Trump. That’s why when I saw she was recently attacked by Marjorie Taylor Greene, I knew I needed to speak out. This isn’t the first time Marjo…

Why this is personal for me

Hi John, My brother’s story is the reason I decided to run for public office. David was born 10 weeks premature, and underwent $2 million worth of surgeries to help him survive. There’s no way my parents could have afforded that without insurance. I know this issue isn’t unique t…

This GOP group *didn’t* come after Josh
