Let’s get one thing straight from the beginning: I’m not here to sell you a fantasy. I’m not running this campaign to cozy up to billionaires or beg for scraps from corporate lobbyists. I’m here to fight for working people — the ones who can’t afford to cut five-figure checks to get their voices heard in Washington.

So let me tell you how we’re doing this.

This campaign is powered by people, not special interests. That means no Super PACs. No dark money. No donor class IOUs. Just everyday people chipping in what they can, when they can, because they believe in what we’re building together.

Why I’m Setting These Ground Rules

We’re in a system where money talks — and unfortunately, it talks louder than most voters ever get the chance to. You see it every day: corporations write the laws, billionaires buy the outcomes, and candidates toe the line to keep the cash flowing. That’s not democracy. That’s extortion with a flag pinned to it.

Darrell Issa is the poster child for that system. He doesn’t need to listen to voters — not when AIPAC, Big Tech, and Big Oil keep his campaign flush with cash. He’s not showing up for the people of this district, because he doesn’t have to.

I’m not playing that game.

Here’s What You Can Expect from My Campaign:

• No corporate PAC money. Ever. I work for the people, not for Amazon, not for Exxon, not for Google.

• Every dollar gets tracked. I’ll be transparent about where money comes from and how it’s spent. That’s your right.

• Small-dollar donations only. If you’re a regular person with a few bucks and a big heart, you’re my kind of donor.

• No shady bundling, no loopholes. I won’t let anyone buy influence, whether it’s a $2,000 check or a wink-and-nod deal.

This Won’t Be Easy — But It’ll Be Honest

We’re going to be outspent. There’s no way around that. But money isn’t the only currency in politics — truth, grit, and people power matter too. And if we show up together — in numbers, with courage — we can beat their money with our movement.

If you’re tired of feeling like your voice doesn’t matter because your wallet isn’t big enough, I want you to know: it does matter here.

This campaign is for you.

Let’s build it together.  Because this ain’t just a campaign — it’s an intervention.
