Update before tonight’s deadline >>

  John,  Nate here, Mike’s Finance Director -- writing to update you about our fundraising efforts ahead of TONIGHT’S big end-of-month fundraising deadline. As you know, we’ve had to fundraise a little differently lately. It’s been a challenge as Finance Director to have to cancel a…

Trump wants to delay the election.

  John, by now you’ve probably seen Trump’s tweet from this morning: Let’s be clear here: This is a dangerous and pathetic attempt by Trump to save his sinking campaign by dragging our democracy down with him. He’s trying to destroy the US Postal Service in order to limit mail-in v…

I was told this was a bad idea.

  John --  A lot of people don’t know this, but we’re one of the very few campaigns in the country running a year-round field program. We don’t believe in trying to reach voters at the last minute before an election, so we’re constantly communicating with undecided voters about thei…

No corporate PACs. No problem.

  John --  It doesn't take being elected to Congress to know unlimited corporate money should have no place in our democracy. It’s one of the worst aspects of our political system. But until we change the laws and end Citizens United, we need to do things the right way. That’s why M…

100 days out.

  John --  Today officially marks 100 days until the General Election. It’s a stark reminder about what’s at stake. For the last four years, we've dealt with the ramifications of this administration’s failures -- their lack of leadership on COVID-19, the cruel attacks on our health …

5.4 million

  John, we expected to see headlines like this: But what have Trump and the Republicans done in response? In the middle of a pandemic, they’ve asked the Supreme Court to terminate the Affordable Care Act -- a decision that would see up to 20 million more Americans lose their health …

My race can still go either way.

  Good news, John. Fundraising results from the second quarter are in, and I'm pleased to share that we hit our quarterly goal! What's important to note is how we did it. The vast majority of our contributions came in from individual donors like you. Unlike my opponent, I won't take …

A surge in cases means a surge in need by the most vulnerable in our community

Wishing you a Happy Fourth of July

A thank you + an important update re: San Onofre.

  John --  I wanted to take a moment to give a huge thank you to everyone who contributed ahead of our FEC fundraising deadline. It was a tough month, but we hit our goal and it was because grassroots supporters like you stepped up with online contributions in the final week. We are s…

We’re so close.

Here’s where things stand >>

  John,  With our FEC deadline at midnight TONIGHT, here's what you need to know about the race for CA-49: ⇒ Mike Levin's opponent is a self-funder who is willing to spend millions to retake this seat. He's already attacked Mike with mailers and ads on the airwaves. ⇒ National Republ…

We’ve had to adapt.

  Hey John, this is Nate, Mike’s Finance Director. As you probably heard by now, tomorrow night marks what will likely be the most important FEC filing deadline of Mike’s re-election campaign. We’ve been fundraising a bit differently lately. It’s been a challenge because we’ve had to…

Can you make sure your name is on Mike’s FEC report, John?

  John --  Our first FEC deadline of the general election hits tomorrow at midnight. We set out to raise $50,000 in online contributions. That may seem steep, but the good news is that we are well within reach -- only $12,084 left to raise. If you haven’t had the opportunity to cont…

Just image

  I'll get straight to the point, John. We cannot afford to lose any momentum in CA-49. That’s why I’m personally asking you to make a contribution of $3 to Mike before his FEC deadline hits. Could you do that right now? Every day, Democrats in our caucus work tirelessly for the Amer…

outrageous

  This is infuriating, John. During a campaign rally in Oklahoma, President Trump openly admitted that he told his staff to "slow down" testing for COVID-19. Of course, we all know why. More testing would likely mean a higher number of COVID cases. That would make him look even worse…

Our first General Election filing deadline.

John,  I’m writing to ask you to make a contribution toward my re-election campaign so we can keep CA-49 blue. I have to be honest, it's hard asking at a time like this, but this is a really big moment for our campaign. Let me explain what I mean: Last week, the Chairman of the National Republic…

Mike is leading the fight to save the USPS.

Georgia

  Noticing a pattern, John? In April, thousands of voters in Wisconsin were forced to risk their lives during the pandemic to vote in their statewide elections. Then last night in Georgia we witnessed yet another poorly run election. As is too often the case, it was predominantly …

Thoughts on a difficult week

Republicans don’t want you to vote

UPDATE: Our opponent just got a big boost.
