This is a neighbor-to-neighbor campaign. Pick your watch — every single role moves the needle in a race this close.

Request a yard sign

Signs work — especially on the roads we all drive every day. Request one and a volunteer will deliver it to you.

Chip in what you can

Local campaigns run on local support. Your contribution pays for signs, mailers, and reaching voters across one of California's most spread-out districts.
