Not next month, not next week — now

Hey John, I was hoping I could get a hold of you super quick. As of today, we are only 25 days away from election day, but voting is already happening now. California sends out mail-in ballots earlier than most states, so that means NOW is the time voters are casting their votes and deciding who …

us vs. MAGA extremism

John, In this election, reproductive freedom and our democracy are on the line. We cannot let our government fall into the hands of MAGA extremists who want to criminalize abortion and suppress the right to vote. That’s why I’m urgently reaching out once again for my friend Josh Ha…

big opportunity

John, Right now is the most critical time for our campaign. Ballots are officially in voters' mailboxes, and people are making the big decision: to vote for me or MAGA extremist Tom Patti. It’s very exciting but also very nerve wracking. As we speak, we are either winning or losin…

ballots are going out!

Hey John, It’s official: ballots are going out in our race THIS WEEK and everything just got real serious! As a mail-in ballot state, Californians vote earlier than almost everyone else in the country. And since we’re the most competitive race in California, that means we can’t w…

Our third TV ad! 📺

Hey John, Exciting news: we just put the finishing touches on Josh’s newest TV ad! You can watch it for yourself here: Here’s the deal: it is crucial that we get this ad out there so voters know the truth about our MAGA opponent Tom Patti, but this is our 3rd ad and it's getting …

Guess who’s bankrolling our opponent’s campaign?

John, You’re never going to believe this… While we were busy fundraising for our end-of-quarter deadline, our MAGA opponent Tom Patti was raising thousands of dollars at an event in Miami hosted by Mike Tyson. Yes, that’s the 4-time world heavyweight champion who was convicted of…

we fell short this time

Hey John, First, I want to say thank you to everyone who donated towards our end-of-quarter deadline. We got closer to our $50,000 goal than we ever thought possible, and we couldn’t have gotten this far without our amazing grassroots army of supporters. Unfortunately, we fell short this time and…

you there?

Hey, it's Josh. Sorry to bother you so late. We’re only hours away from the most important FEC filing deadline of my career and I really need your help. I keep refreshing our ActBlue page hoping more supporters step up, but donations are slowing down and we still haven't hit our goal. I’m…

tonight I’m making a major decision

John, Tonight I’m facing the biggest end-of-quarter deadline of my career, and right now we’re falling $18,000 short of our goal. If you can donate right now, here is the link. Not only is it critical we send in the strongest fundraising report we possibly can against our extreme M…

stand up to MAGA extremism

John, If you know me, you know I’m not afraid to stand up to extremists like Donald Trump and Marjorie Taylor Greene. Neither is my buddy Josh Harder. Josh is a real fighter. He doesn’t shy away from calling out the extremists in the Republican Party and holding them accountable. H…

a longer email (but I hope you’ll read)

John, We’re in the final lap of this must-win race, and all signs point to a photo finish. Ours is one of the swing districts that will decide whether we hold our Democratic majority or the GOP and right-wing extremists flip the House red. If we lose here, we hand Kevin McCarthy th…

Hello from campaign HQ, also known as my living room

John, Pam here — Hello! I’m writing this from our living room, which in addition to currently being covered in baby teething toys, is now being taken over by campaign signs, mailers, clipboards, and pens. You can tell it’s campaign season again! There’s been a lot happening lately …

I wish I had better news to share

John, We’re just 4 days away from my biggest end-of-quarter deadline of this campaign and I wish I had better news to share, but we’re headed in the wrong direction. In fact, my finance director Kierra just told me fundraising on ActBlue is actually slowing down! We can’t afford to fall short wh…

fundraising is going down

John, We’re less than 100 hours away from Josh’s final, and most important, end-of-quarter deadline. It’s critical that we don’t fall short against our extreme MAGA opponent Tom Patti. But take a look at our fundraising on ActBlue over the last week (it’s going down): This is th…

nowhere close

John, We’re only 5 days away from the final and most important end-of-quarter deadline of this campaign and unfortunately, we’re nowhere close to Josh’s $50,000 goal. This is a defining moment for our campaign that determines if we keep this seat blue and whether Democrats maintain…

the courage to act

John, If we want to make real progress in this country, we need to elect leaders with the courage to stand up to the extreme MAGA forces endangering our democracy. My friend Josh Harder will do exactly that. I’m seeing firsthand how Josh is fighting back. Josh had the courage to ru…

our opponent says he’s “well-positioned”

Hi John, Our extreme MAGA opponent Tom Patti has been going on the offensive with a slew of new attacks against Josh, yard signs, and a Super PAC spending $2.1 million to help him out.  Now he’s projecting confidence about flipping this seat for Republicans in November. In fact, lo…

what is “end-of-quarter”?

Hi John, If you’re super into politics like me, you’re probably get a million emails asking you for donations ahead of this “end-of-quarter” deadline.  We want to be different. So today I’m going to explain what this deadline really means and if you make a donation to support our ca…

Trump is being sued – here are my thoughts

John, You probably heard the news earlier this week - Letitia James, New York’s Attorney General, is suing Trump and three of his children for fraud and lying to enrich himself and his businesses. But don’t worry, Donald Trump responded by calling her “racist” and “grossly incompeten…

Have you seen our new billboard?

John, A few days ago, we warned you that we started seeing our opponent Tom Patti’s signs all over the district - including ones trying to pretend Tom Patti is a Democrat. So we decided to fight back by going big… billboard big. Yep, we purchased multiple billboards throughout the d…

“California is the key”

Hey John, This new article from The Hill states it plainly: the road to the House majority goes right through California - and we’re the #1 most competitive race in CA! Will you please rush in a donation right now to re-elect Josh and keep the House blue? If you've saved your pay…

Democrats for... MAGA extremism?

Hey John, You’ll never believe this: signs for Josh’s extreme MAGA opponent Tom Patti are popping up all across the district - including this one pretending to be a Democrat! Talk about misleading! It should be laughable, but it’s actually part of our opponent’s strategy. If he …

my opponent’s yard signs

Hey John, Take a look at this: our MAGA opponent Tom Patti is plastering his new yard signs all over our district. (And you’ll notice they haven’t been vandalized like ours were. 🙄) Yard signs are a public indication of a campaign’s momentum, and we really need your help to fight…

my quote in The New York Times

a terrifying statistic

Did you see this, John? According to FiveThirtyEight, more than 60% of Americans will have an election denier on the ballot this year. That means hundreds of people are running for office for the sole reason of supporting Trump’s efforts to overthrow the election. It’s terrifying, …

My thoughts on Trump’s FBI raid & subpoenas

Lindsey Graham’s national abortion ban

John, You probably saw that yesterday Lindsey Graham introduced a truly hateful bill to criminalize abortion in all 50 states. Let me be very clear what this means: no matter where a woman lives, this bill would take away her fundamental right to control her own body. With the Supr…

a champion for women vs. an anti-choice extremist
