Katie likes to cut the BS—and so do we. So in that spirit, here are 10 quick, important things we want you to know about Katie.
- Katie isn't a career politician. Before being elected to Congress in 2018, Katie was a law profressor and a consumer protection attorney.
- Katie is a single, working mom of three school-aged kids—and she understands the pressures that families face.
- Katie is a proud progressive representing a purple district in Congress. Her message resonates with Democrats, Republicans, and independent voters alike—and we know from experience that when voters hear about Katie, we win.
- Katie is known for using her whiteboard to hold those with power accountable. Her questioning has led to real solutions for families, including a commitment from the Trump Administration in March 2020 that COVID testing would be free for every American. The whiteboard has also helped explain bills she passed to crack down on corporate greed and lower costs for families.
- Katie is running for U.S. Senate because California needs a warrior in Washington, and when it comes to protecting California families, Katie doesn't back down.
- Katie is the only candidate in this race who doesn't accept corporate PAC or federal lobbyist money. She believes our elected officials should work for the people they represent, not their biggest donors and Wall Street friends.
- To fund this campaign, Katie relies on grassroots supporters (like you!). Our average contribution this year is $27.68.
- Winning a statewide race in California is tough, but with the support of this grassroots team, Katie has won tough elections before—like when she flipped a historically red seat blue.
- Public and internal polling show Katie is ahead in the primary among voters. That means she can win.
- Our campaign is falling behind financially to those in this race who have accepted corporate PAC and lobbyist money. So, Katie is counting on this grassroots team to fight back.
For a people-powered campaign like ours, we can't afford to fall behind if we want to stay competitive in this primary.
Thanks!
Team Katie Porter
