Friends –
Happy Spring Equinox! Now is a time for renewal and to celebrate new beginnings. This week also marks an end to my chemotherapy regime. For the last six months, I’ve undergone preventative chemo to ensure I remain cancer-free.
The change of season brings new excitement for my campaign to be your next Public Lands Commissioner. This race is about my deepest passion — connecting the people of Washington to their own power to face the most pressing needs of our state: a changing climate, growing inequality, and hopelessness.
I’m a fighter, but I don’t fight alone. Since my diagnosis, I have had so many people reach out about their own cancer journey and how cancer has impacted their lives. This, along with community support, has given me so much hope and encouragement. I’m grateful to be turning the next chapter with all of you. Together, we can successfully take on a new challenge: winning this race! We know first-hand that Washington State can do better because I’ve seen us come together to do hard things.
This is a big moment for our campaign. We are less than 10 days away from the end of our first month of fundraising since the legislative session ended and the fundraising freeze was lifted. Where we land at the end of March shows that our campaign has the momentum to go the distance and win in November.
I’ll be direct: I’m behind other candidates due to the fundraising freeze while serving as your State Senator. I need to close the gap, and I need your help to do it. Can you donate $50, $100, or more by the end of today?
I am not accepting money from big timber or corporate polluters, so every dollar you give powers this campaign and helps get our shared vision to all Washingtonians. I know you trust me to fight for you, and together, we can show people across our state I will continue fighting for them.
Please also save the date for my Campaign Kickoff on Tuesday, April 23 at 6:00 p.m. at the Filipino Community Center (5740 Martin Luther King Jr Way S, Seattle, WA). Details to come!
Adelante,
