Yesterday Katie explained why special interests are on the verge of successfully ending her time in Congress. Today, a crypto super PAC launched *another* grossly-misleading attack ad against Katie. Can you chip in right now to help us respond?
Katie's message from yesterday is below:
Let me be frank: We're at serious risk of losing because of Adam Schiff's dangerous play to boost a Republican into the top two. I'll explain more below, but first: Can you give $5 right now to help us pull ahead?
In California's primary, the top two vote-getters, regardless of party, advance to the general. While Adam Schiff is polling in first, Republican Steve Garvey and I are right behind him—battling for second.
But Schiff has spent more than $10M boosting the Republican in this race. As the New York Times reported, "Mr. Schiff has perhaps done more to help Mr. Garvey than Mr. Garvey himself."
And as a Slate piece reports, "[Garvey] is going to lose. The question is whether, on March 5, his remarkably vapid campaign takes a few California Democrats down with him. If Garvey does advance, it would essentially ensure that a centrist like Schiff would win the general election for the Senate seat—a coup for the old-guard Democratic moderates like Nancy Pelosi, and a frustrating miss for progressives hoping to shift Feinstein's old seat at least slightly to the left."
With super PACs funded by billionaires and corporate special interests pouring money into this race every few days, I am worried we're going to lose, and that means my whiteboard and I are out of Congress for good.
If you've been meaning to donate and want to make sure California has a real champion for working people in the U.S. Senate—now's the time! Anything you can give will be put to immediate use.
Many, many thanks.
Katie
