<h5>Updated: 7/26/26</h5>Overview:CA-13 voters need to know that Stockton Mayor Kevin Lincoln profits politically and personally – at our expense. Summary: Voters should see broadcast TV in the Fresno and Sacramento markets, district-wide ads on digital platforms and on streaming platforms, radio, and mail, all in both English and Spanish.&nbsp;Ads should inform voters that: <ul><li>Under Mayor Kevin Lincoln, Stockton moved in the wrong direction. Homelessness increased, property crime rose, and homicides increased by nearly 40%. But instead of hiring more police officers and putting public safety first, Lincoln diverted taxpayer dollars to political pet projects, including $1.5 million for a sports arena. Then he spent more than $75 million on a new City Hall on the waterfront, including a new office for himself. When public safety should have come first, Kevin Lincoln put other priorities ahead of Stockton families.</li><li>It’s a struggle just to make ends meet. Stockton already has one of the highest sales taxes in the Valley, but Mayor Kevin Lincoln piled on even more. Lincoln voted to increase more than sixty city fees. Higher costs for water utilities, even youth sports. Then Lincoln increased health insurance costs for city workers by eighteen percent. Government should make life more affordable, not more expensive. We just can’t afford Kevin Lincoln. </li></ul>Additional Resources: <ul><li>It is important for CA-13 voters to hear from real people who live in the district about the struggles they face — and how Lincoln’s wrong-headed policies — made it harder. </li><li>This is not about national issues or national talking points.&nbsp; This should all be local in feel, tone, and content. It is important that CA-13 voters hear from real people, disappointed and frustrated by Kevin Lincoln’s time as Stockton Mayor – conveyed in a way that is local, authentic, and customized – to the Central Valley.</li></ul><a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GdFdefwLp_OGW3ovgPRHz3HXNiRwFXJx/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="color: var(--color-text-accent-primary); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text-accent-primary);">Backup linked here</a>

His family has lived and worked in the Central Valley for generations, and Adam attended local schools before building a career dedicated to serving the region he calls home.Today, Adam represents California’s 13th Congressional District in the United States House of Representatives, where he is focused on lowering costs for Valley families, strengthening the region’s water supply, supporting agriculture, and expanding access to healthcare.Adam serves on the House Agriculture Committee and the House Natural Resources Committee, two key assignments that allow him to advocate directly for Valley farmers, water resources, and rural communities. He also serves as Whip of the moderate Blue Dog Coalition, helping lead bipartisan efforts to bring common sense solutions to Washington.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/c2382320-5b19-46e1-b1b9-9687449eeb18/12207407-9936-4791-8595-3453370f311d/12207407-9936-4791-8595-3453370f311d.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C2048%2C1366&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="left" alignwidth="37" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed">Adam believes his job is to work and deliver for the people he represents. Washington is broken, but Adam has proven he will work with anyone if it means solving problems for families back home. His agenda is simple: lower the cost of food, housing, and utilities, secure more reliable water for Valley families and farms, cut the red tape that keeps infrastructure projects stuck on the drawing board, strengthen public safety and build an economy where families don’t have to choose between paying for health care and paying their rent.In Congress, Adam has sponsored legislation to lower food prices by limiting costly tariffs that drive up costs for families and hurt Valley farmers. He worked to pass the bipartisan Farm Bill to ensure that agricultural communities have the resources, support, and certainty they need to continue to feed families across the country. He has also worked to expand health care access for veterans and rural communities.Despite the chaos and partisan gridlock in Washington, Adam has continued to deliver results for the Central Valley. He has secured funding to rehabilitate a local fire station, investments in flood protection and water treatment projects, and brought back federal funding to repair roads and infrastructure across the region.Adam has also shown he is willing to stand up when the Valley’s interests are threatened. He opposed efforts to cut health care from tens of thousands of Valley families, and is working to roll back unconstitutional immigration policies and illegal tariffs that hurt the Valley economy and raised costs for families and businesses.<img src="https://run.imgix.net/c2382320-5b19-46e1-b1b9-9687449eeb18/8c0e9109-4081-404d-a9f4-46b282a16992/8c0e9109-4081-404d-a9f4-46b282a16992.jpg?ixlib=js-3.8.0&amp;bri=0&amp;con=0&amp;sat=0&amp;high=0&amp;shad=0&amp;usm=0&amp;rect=0%2C0%2C2048%2C1366&amp;w=1500" alt="" caption="" align="right" alignwidth="40" tiltdirection="left" variant="framed">Before serving in Congress, Adam represented Merced and Stanislaus Counties in the California State Assembly, where he built a reputation as a pragmatic problem-solver who delivers for the Central Valley. Adam helped secure more than $200 million to establish a joint medical school in Merced to train doctors in the Valley and address the region’s longstanding shortage of healthcare providers.He also secured billions in investments to strengthen the Valley’s water supply, including funding for new water storage, repairs to aging canals, and improvements to groundwater basins. Adam led the fight against the State Water Grab and organized the largest water rights rally in State Capitol history to defend the Valley’s water.Adam lives in Merced, where he helps lead a small business and teaches a course on the California Legislature at UC Merced.

<h2>AFFORDABILITY &amp; COSTS</h2><h5>Central Valley families know the affordability crisis firsthand, and Adam is working nonstop to lower the costs of food, housing, health care, utilities, and other everyday expenses.

He has worked tirelessly to ensure farmers can receive reliable water deliveries as we build new infrastructure, fighting to weaken regulatory barriers while securing funding for new water infrastructure.</h5><ul><li>Introduced the End the California Water Crisis Package and the Central Valley Water Solution Act, a suite of bills that would authorize an additional 21 water storage projects in California, ease permitting restrictions, and create enforceable timelines for environmental review processes, aiming to expand California’s water storage capacity.</li><li>Introduced the WATER Act, a bill to codify provisions of EO 14181, “Emergency Measures to Provide Water Resources in California and Improve Disaster Response in Certain Areas.”</li><li>Supported the Build Now Act, which would create interagency coordination at the federal level on permitting obstacles for water projects in California, specifically focused on the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the Endangered Species Act (ESA).</li><li>Introduced the Valley Water Protection Act, which allows access to the exemption process where a modification to proposed agency action may impair national security or regional economic impacts.

Adam got specific, critical wins here for Valley farmers, businesses, and rural communities.</li><li>Secured an amendment in the Farm, Food and National Security Act of 2026 to protects the Specialty Crop Block Grant Program by prohibiting USDA from implementing dangerous cost-sharing or matching requirements. Amendment was unanimously supported.</li><li>Secured a commitment from House Agriculture Committee Chairman on billions of dollars in economic assistance for specialty crop growers through future legislation.</li><li>Secured an amendment in the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026 that would require the USDA to report to Congress how changes to or expiration of the USCMA will affect the agriculture industry.</li><li>Secured an amendment in the Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026 that would allow states to use their resources on locally grown fresh fruits and vegetables from the Emergency Food Assistance Program to help children of servicemembers to eat healthy and provide a bigger market for our growers.</li><li>Led Democratic negotiations in the House Committee on Natural Resources to secure critical deadline provisions in the front and back end of the permitting process in the SPEED Act; was one of only two Democrats to move the bill out of committee.</li><li>Cosponsored the bipartisan PRECISE Act, which incentivizes private sector financing for the purchase of precision agriculture technology.</li><li>Cosponsored the bipartisan Livestock Indemnity Program Improvement Act of 2025, proposed legislation that would require the LIP to update the average fair market value of livestock quarterly rather than annually.</li><li>In his time in the Assembly, Adam restored state funding for FFA chapters serving 83,500 high school students.</li></ul><h2>EDUCATION</h2><h5>As a proud graduate of Merced College who now teaches at UC Merced, Adam knows that access to quality education opens opportunities for the next generation. From elementary and high school through college, Adam believes that learning, training, and job preparation provided by good schools will propel students into the world ready to tackle the issues we face.</h5><ul><li>Secured $366,000 for Gustine Unified School District to create a facility that houses school-based mental health programs.</li><li>Introduced the Expanding Medical Education Act, which would help build medical schools to provide more physicians in underserved areas. UCSF Fresno and UC Merced in particular are eligible to receive federal grant funding under this program.</li><li>Cosponsored the bipartisan IDEA Full Funding Act to ensure that children with disabilities can access a free, high quality public education.</li><li>Joined leaders in breaking ground on Merced College’s new AgTEC Innovation Center, a $21 million state-of-the-art facility focused on agricultural technology, automation technology and robotics. This was a project that Adam helped secure funding for when he served in the State Assembly.</li><li>Celebrated $5.3 million grant funding from Health and Human Services to the Community Action Partnership of Madera County. The grant supports Head Start and Early Head Start programming through Community Action Partnership in Madera and Fresno counties.</li><li>During his time in the State Assembly, Adam secured $2,000,000 for the Stanislaus County Office of Education to create the VOLT Institute in Modesto, providing high-skill job training and serving as a pipeline to jobs.</li><li>In the State Assembly, Adam was proud to support a $2.7 billion plan to offer transitional kindergarten to all 4-years-olds by 2025. Serving 400,000 students, it is California’s version of universal preschool.</li></ul><h2>PUBLIC SAFETY</h2>Adam strongly supports law enforcement at the local, state, and national levels, holding a deep respect for their bravery and delivering solutions to bolster their efforts to keep our communities safe. Whether it be cracking down on drugs, gang violence, patterns or isolated incidents of crime, Adam is committed to passing policies that will make the Valley a safer place to live.<ul><li>Introduced the bipartisan Combatting Fentanyl Poisonings Act, which expands grant funding for fentanyl awareness campaigns aimed at children, specifically by supporting training programs &amp; equipment for law enforcement agencies tracking &amp; apprehending fentanyl traffickers. </li><li>Secured $1,031,000 for the Modesto Police Department’s enhanced radio system including new mobile and portable radios, along with necessary software, accessories, testing, and training.</li><li>Secured $850,000 to rehabilitate and improve Modesto Fire Station #1 for firefighter safety and readiness, as well as faster emergency response.</li><li>Secured $3,150,000 for the Bear Creek Infrastructure and Flood Protection Initiative, which will construct and complete critical flood resiliency infrastructure and habitat restoration features along Bear Creek – this will enhance flood protection for critical public safety infrastructure.</li><li>During his time in the State Assembly, Adam delivered funding to create the VIPER program, resulting in the arrest of 50 gang leaders and confiscation of weapons and ammunition from the streets. This cut the county’s murder rate in half in the first year. </li><li>Adam has opposed policies that would jeopardize public safety and connect to retail theft rings, including zero bail (Prop 25), reduced sentencing (Prop 47), and early release (Prop 57).</li></ul><h2>HEALTH CARE </h2>Adam is working to lower costs and increase coverage when it comes to health care access. He knows that the Valley is already experiencing one of the worst physician shortages in the state, all while health care costs rise and hyper-partisan bills make it more difficult and more expensive to get care close to home.<ul><li>Introduced the Protecting Health Care and Lowering Costs Act of 2025 to reverse all of the Medicaid cuts in the One Big Beautiful Bill and permanently extend the ACA enhanced premium tax credits. </li><li>Introduced the bipartisan Telehealth Network and Telehealth Resource Centers Grant Program Reauthorization act, which would increase access to care for rural families and allow people to see their doctor from home. Adam was able to get this bill passed out of the House. </li><li>Helped pass the 3-year ACA tax credit extension, the Breaking the Gridlock Act. Consistent leader on negotiations across the aisle to try to reach a bipartisan agreement on ACA extension.</li><li>Introduced the bipartisan Midwives for MOMS Act, which aims to address the shortage of maternity care in rural communities by expanding educational opportunities for midwives and improving access to midwifery services.</li><li>During his time in the State Assembly, Adam secured $220 million to build a medical education building at UC Merced and $18 million per year to operate the program which will enroll its first class of future doctors in 2023.</li><li>In the State Assembly, Adam ensured coverage of continuous glucose monitors under Medi-Cal. Prior to this, Medi-Cal was the only health insurer in California that did not cover continuous glucose monitors despite serving the most vulnerable population.</li></ul><h2>VETERANS</h2>Adam has worked across the aisle to support common sense legislation to support our veterans: rolling back red tape, expanding access to high-quality, affordable care, working to ensure they are receiving the benefits they rightfully earned in service to our country. <ul><li>Introduced the STRIVE Act of 2025, which would prevent the VA from collecting copays from veterans in instances where the collection delay is the VA’s fault. The VA later announced that they will relieve veterans of more than $272 million of medical copay debt accrued due to technical errors within their processing system, following key provisions of the STRIVE Act.</li><li>Cosponsored the PFC Joseph P. Dwyer Peer Support Program Act, which would require the VA to establish a grant program on peer-to-peer mental health programs for veterans.</li><li>Cosponsored the Major Richard Star Act to allow full VA disability and DOD retirement payments for combat-injured military retirees.</li><li>Cosponsored the Veteran Burial Timeliness and Death Certificate Accountability Act, which would require VA clinicians to sign a veteran’s death certificate within 48 hours of a death under natural circumstances. Under the current system, delays in this process hinder timely burials and the access to survivor benefits that families rely on; this bill aims to get families that support faster.</li><li>Cosponsored the Retired Pay Restoration Act, legislation which would allow the receipt of both military retired pay and veterans' disability compensation with respect to any service-connected disability.</li><li>Cosponsored the Service Dogs Assisting Veterans Act, a bill to require the VA Secretary to award grants to nonprofit organizations to assist with programs to provide service dogs to eligible veterans. </li><li>During his time at the State Assembly Adam was proud to author a bill which provided a path for veterans transitioning to civilian employment to receive credit for their military experience and education toward certifications in the water industry.</li></ul><h2>IMMIGRATION &amp; BORDER SECURITY</h2>Adam knows that the Central Valley cannot function without our immigrant community, and he has supported multiple immigration reform measures to ensure both security and opportunity. Adam believes that we must secure the border, enforce the law, and hold federal agencies to clear standards so agents can do their jobs safely and professionally.<ul><li>Joined a bipartisan group to reintroduce the DIGNITY Act, a historic, comprehensive immigration reform bill that addresses legal status, grants targeted protection to specific undocumented immigrants already living in the U.S., invests in border security infrastructure, mandates accountability from ICE, and overhauls our visa and asylum systems to relieve the backlog.</li><li>Cosponsored the bipartisan American Dream and Promise Act of 2025, which would provide a pathway to citizenship to Dreamers, undocumented immigrants who were brought to the United States as children, as well as TPS and DED recipients – largely people who have spent their lives here, getting an education, taking care of their families, going to work and contributing to our communities.</li><li>Voted against the most recent DHS Appropriations bill – this legislation would give a blank check to CBP and ICE without long overdue accountability reforms and reflects a pattern of reckless leadership that undermines immigration enforcement and puts both federal agents and the public at risk.</li><li>Introduced the bipartisan Farm Workforce Modernization Act of 2025, which would provide a pathway for undocumented farm workers to earn legal status through continued employment in the agricultural sector.</li></ul><h2>INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS</h2>Adam’s focus in international affairs is steadfastly on protecting American interests – both security and economic – at home and abroad, and on the safety of our brave service members and their families.<ul><li>Adam voted in March to stop forever wars and halt the war in Iran, supporting a War Powers Resolution – this bill would have directed the President to end recent military activity in Iran unless war has been declared, military force has been authorized, or an action is taken in self-defense. </li><li>Adam believes that ending the war in Iran would help lower prices here in the United States and save tens of billions in taxpayer dollars to be invested at home rather than spent on forever wars abroad.</li><li>Adam believes the Iranian regime has oppressed its own people and funded terrorist organizations that both destabilize the Middle East and threaten our allies. At the same time, Adam knows that Congress carries the solemn responsibility to declare war and the president must present a clear strategy and defined objectives before the U.S. is drawn further into another conflict in the region.</li><li>Adam has seen too many bad foreign policy decisions by politicians that placed American service members in harm’s way without a coherent plan and well defined goals. He opposes endless, politically-motivated wars, waged at the expense of service members and taxpayers.</li><li>Cosponsored the Stopping a Rogue President on Trade Act, which would limit the president’s ability to unilaterally impose tariffs without congressional approval, helping to repeal sloppy trade policy and lower prices caused by tariffs.</li></ul>

<h2>How to handle donations on your website</h2>Run does not process donations directly on our platform, as is standard with most political and advocacy sites.

While freshman Rep. Adam Gray, D-Merced, signaled he’s ready to tackle immigration, high housing costs and other issues, two Republican colleagues were still in campaign mode during a Sunday morning appearance on CNN.

<h4>House Democrat Adam Gray of Merced is ready to solve problems. The GOP, not so much</h4>

Congressman Adam Gray (D-Merced) introduced the Valley Water Protection Act, aiming to safeguard water access for Central Valley farmers and producers. The bill seeks to amend the Endangered Species Act (ESA) to prevent enforcement actions that could pose national security threats or cause regional economic harm. Congressman Jim Costa (D-Fresno) co-led the legislation.

<h4>Congressman Gray introduces Valley Water Protection Act</h4>

The California Farm Bureau has endorsed Rep. Adam Gray (D-Merced) in his bid for reelection in the 13th&nbsp;Congressional District.The CFB endorsed Republican incumbent John Duarte in 2024 – a race that Gray won by a mere 187 votes after losing by a slim 564-vote margin to Duarte two years earlier.“No one works harder to deliver for Central Valley families than Adam Gray,” said Shannon Douglas, president of the CFB. “When results matter, Adam is the one who puts politics aside and makes sure that farmers and ranchers benefit from the decisions happening in Washington, D.C.”The California Farm Bureau is a leading voice in the state’s powerful agricultural sector.“I’m proud to represent one of the world’s largest agricultural regions – a community made up of farmers, ranchers, dairymen, and their families,” said Gray, who served 10 years in the state Assembly before running for Congress. “These are the hardworking people who feed our country and yet too often are treated as an afterthought in Washington. I’m working to make sure their voices are heard, and I’m grateful to have the support and partnership of the California Farm Bureau as I continue to work for the Valley.”Gray was one of seven Democrats to advance the bipartisan farm bill – The Farm, Food, and National Security Act of 2026 – through the House Agriculture Committee. He worked to ensure fair market value of livestock for ranchers, eliminate red tape around access to water, and authorize new projects to expand water infrastructure across the Central Valley. He also pushed back against President Trump’s tariffs, which he called “reckless,” that hurt agricultural trade partners.“Making sure our farmers can succeed and get ahead is personal for me,” said Gray. “I was raised working in my family's dairy supply business. I built a record working across the aisle to deliver real wins for our agricultural community, from water access to funding farming technology. I’m proud to have led on a number of bipartisan bills that strengthen our farms and ensure farmers have the resources, support, and certainty they need to continue feeding the country.”Gray also reintroduced the DIGNITY Act, an immigration reform bill that provides a pathway to citizenship for Dreamers, grants targeted protection to specificundocumented immigrants already living in the U.S., invests in border security infrastructure, mandates accountability from ICE, and overhauls visa and asylum systems to relieve the backlog.Gray’s Republican opponents in the race for the 13th Congressional District are former Stockton mayor Kevin Lincoln and businessman Vin Kruttiventi. The Cook Political Report with Amy Walter, Inside Elections with Nathan L. Gonzales, and Larry J. Sabato’s Crystal Ball all show Gray with an advantage in a district that leans Republican.

MERCED, CA –&nbsp;Today, Congressman Adam Gray (CA-13) issued the following statement in response to primary election results in California's 13th Congressional District:&nbsp;

<h4>Adam Gray Issues Statement on CA-13 Primary Election Results </h4>

People in districts like mine need a helping hand, not a lecture.My 2024 congressional race was the closest in America, decided by 187 votes out of more than 200,000. The same group of voters who elected me also went for Donald Trump, making our district one of only a handful in the nation to collectively split their ticket between a Republican for president and a Democrat for Congress.Maybe that’s why the party interviewed me for its post-election “autopsy.” Regardless, I’m not sure everybody actually wants to hear what I think. The postmortem they released in May — focused on political strategy and polling failures — missed the point. Deeper issues are at work here, issues of priorities and connection.California’s Central Valley, my lifelong home, is a working-class region shaped by agriculture, water scarcity, shared values and the everyday economics of building a middle-class life. One lesson Democrats could learn here is that Washington increasingly struggles to connect politics to how ordinary Americans experience their lives.You don’t need me to tell you that life in modern America is expensive and exhausting. Costs rise. Waits lengthen. Paperwork multiplies. People seem to spend more time on hold with health care providers, insurers, utilities and other bureaucracies than they do with their families.Politics should be aimed at making all that easier.Democrats used to understand this. Ours was the party that built dams, paved highways, chartered universities, unveiled parks and sent men to the moon. Government did not exist simply to referee competing interests. It existed to solve problems and help build the future. That instinct feels distant today.Housing offers a clear example. Too many young, working families cannot afford to buy a home — not because America has forgotten how to build houses, but because we have made building them slower, harder and dramatically more expensive through overlapping zoning rules, lawsuits, permit delays, financing barriers and bureaucratic red tape.These families do not experience the housing shortage as an abstract policy debate. They feel it through delayed milestones, shrinking choices and the growing fear that a good life is slipping out of reach. We in government have to take the lead in finding concrete solutions.Those same lessons apply beyond housing. If we want cleaner and cheaper energy, we have to invest in it. If we want better roads, dams and trains, we have to build them. My party talks a good game about ambitious goals. But the work required to bring those dreams to life is often left undone.Our challenge is not only governing; it is also connecting. Like most Americans, people in the Central Valley do not spend their time thinking about ideological debates or arguments unfolding on social media. They don’t measure their country’s success with debate points or legislative scorecards. They think about work, family, faith, recreation, rising bills and how to create decent lives for their children.And they need a helping hand in getting things done, not a lecture about how to do them. Too little of today’s political language makes a connection, and too much of it feels like correction. Coalition building looks less like democratic inclusion and more like cultural gatekeeping.Democrats historically succeeded not by narrowing the definition of who belongs inside the coalition, but by building broad, messy, imperfect coalitions large enough to govern a diverse country.My neighbors, my friends, my relatives, my constituents are hunters and environmentalists, union workers and entrepreneurs, pickup drivers and owners of electric vehicles. Sometimes they are several of those things at once. That complexity is not a weakness to manage. That is America.That is what Washington still misses about districts like mine.Citizens don’t want politics to dominate every corner of their lives. They want affordable homes, functioning institutions, opportunities for their children, time with family and something to look forward to on the weekend. Politics can and should help make those things possible.Which is another way of saying that Democrats should skip the postmortems and work on improving everyday life. And, along the way, maybe make America fun again.<a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2026/06/08/democrats-dont-understand-everyday-life/">https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2026/06/08/democrats-dont-understand-everyday-life/</a>

<h4>Rep. Gray's Op-Ed: My Purple District Can Tell You What The Democratic Autopsy Left Out </h4>

MERCED, CA – Congressman Adam Gray today announced the endorsement of the Modesto Police Officers’ Association (MPOA) in his campaign for re-election to California’s 13th Congressional District. MPOA represents nearly 200 rank-and-file police officers serving the City of Modesto. “The Modesto Police Officers' Association (MPOA) is proud to announce our endorsement of Adam Gray for re-election as our U.S. Congressman for California’s 13th Congressional District,” said MPOA PAC Chairman Robert Gumm on behalf of the organization and its president. “Adam is a lifelong resident of the Central Valley.

Whether they’re walking the beat or using cutting-edge technology to crack down on crime, they demonstrate the professionalism and dedication our communities deserve. I’m honored to have their support.”“Supporting public safety means making sure local law enforcement has the tools, technology, and resources they need to protect our communities,” Gray continued. “Throughout my time in the Assembly and Congress, I’ve worked across the aisle to secure investments for local law enforcement, crack down on organized crime and fentanyl trafficking, and strengthen the partnerships that keep Valley families safe. I’ll continue working alongside our local officers to make sure they have the support they deserve.” Throughout his career, Gray has consistently worked to strengthen public safety across the Central Valley. His work includes: <ul><li>Securing more than $1 million in federal funding for technology upgrades for the Modesto Police Department.</li><li>Introducing the Combatting Fentanyl Poisonings Act to expand grant funding for fentanyl awareness and prevention.</li><li>Authoring legislation in the California State Assembly to crack down on gangs and organized retail theft, and continuing that work in Congress. </li></ul>For more information about Congressman Adam Gray’s campaign, visit <a href="http://AdamGrayForCongress.com" style="color: var(--color-text); text-decoration-color: var(--color-text);">AdamGrayForCongress.com</a>. ###
