41. 13. 50.

How we fight back πŸ’΅.

My daughters have fewer rights than I did

Since Dobbs, we've seen women denied care, doctors threatened with prosecution, and politicians pass laws that defy reality. And many Republicans are pushing for even more restrictions.
 

NEW POLLING IN OHIO: 53-45

A Fox News poll shows me ahead in Ohio’s Senate race.
 

Jason,

The first public poll of the general election in Ohio was just released, and you need to take a look: 

This is a big deal. It’s the first public poll of the general election – and the data proves Ohio is ready to unseat my opponent, Jon Husted, and pave a path for us to flip the Senate in November. 

The momentum behind our campaign is growing, but so is the target on our backs. Republicans can see we’re putting up a fight, and they’re going to do whatever it takes to stop us in our tracks. Before I say more, can you split any amount between my campaign and Nellie Pou so we can hit our $100K rapid response goal and take on whatever’s next?

DOnATE

What we’re building together is truly remarkable, and I see it at every stop I make across the state. Folks are fed up with rising costs, rampant corruption, and a rigged system that makes it impossible to get ahead no matter how hard you work. So they’re showing up to make a change and proving that we have the support to flip this seat, even in a state Trump won by 11 points last time.

Seriously, we’re 8 points ahead of our opponent in this latest poll. That’s the good news.

Here’s the tough part: Outside Republican groups and corporations see these polls, too. They’ve already publicly announced I’m one of their top targets and are spending $83 million against me, so another poll like this will give them all the more reason to dump a fortune into Ohio to take me down. 

I don’t know what’s coming next, but I know the only way we can keep this going in our favor is by fighting hard each and every day until the election. Ohio broke the record for the most expensive Senate race in history last time, so we need a lot of support if we’re going to pull this off.

Your $20 might not seem like a lot on its own, but it all adds up when thousands of folks chip in whatever they can, whenever they can – even if it’s just $20 at a time. If you’re with me, I’m earnestly asking if you can split a donation between my campaign and Nellie Pou before midnight. Everything counts and means a ton to me personally.

Inside the numbers in CA-22

 

Jason,

As we close in on our first fundraising deadline of the general election, we wanted to show you how the top election analysts rate our chances of flipping CA-22 from red to blue:

** Updated 6.23.26 **
CA-22 General Election Ratings

Cook Political Report: Tossup
Sabato’s Crystal Ball: Tossup
Inside Elections: Tilt Republican

As a reminder, CA-22 became a lot more Democratic after Prop 50, and our primary showed by just how much.

Democratic candidates combined for nearly 60% of the vote, holding Valadao to a dismal 40.7%.

Analysts at Sabato's Crystal Ball pointed out that there is “no recent precedent” in the history of California's top-two primary system that a Republican incumbent has come back to win after their party’s primary vote fell below 50%.

We can win this race, Jason, but because we spent everything we had to defeat the $4 million in Super PAC attacks we faced, we’re starting this general election from scratch.

We need your help:

Please rush in a $3 right now. In a close race that could decide the majority like ours -- every dollar will go a long way.

Thank you,
