Fwd: Speechless.

Speechless.

Harley Rouda for Congress     I am absolutely speechless. Take a look >> It's hard to know where to start with this video -- but it's nearly impossible to deny that it shows just how deep Michelle Steel's homophobia runs.  I am not okay with the possibility of our future Congressp…

What common sense and bipartisanship looks like...

Harley Rouda for Congress     We tell you a lot how Harley focuses on commonsense policies and is more than willing to work with his Republican colleagues to accomplish his goals. But you might be wondering what that looks like. Well, Harley just proposed a bill that is a great example. It…

some leaders failed

Harley Rouda for Congress     These last few months have tested our leaders -- and we've seen far too many fail. But, lucky for us, we have Harley representing us in Congress.  From organizing a PPE drive in Orange County, to marching for Black lives, to simply wearing a mask, Harley has s…

I'm not *masking* my opinions

Harley Rouda for Congress     My opponent is in charge of making sure Orange Countians are safe from the novel coronavirus. Yet, she's mocking the idea of wearing masks as unsafe and "species discrimination." Masks, to me, make complete sense. In fact, I just wrote an Op-Ed about how masks…

Species discrimination, Newt Gingrich, and a critical deadline

Harley Rouda for Congress     My opponent, Michelle Steel, just announced she'll be calling on Newt Gingrich to help her fundraise.  I'm actually glad to hear that. Newt Gingrich was the reason why I left the Republican Party in 1997. So, for her to choose Newt to headline a fundraiser onl…
