Iâm proud of my son, and I know he will be an incredible U.S. Senator. You will be proud of him too. [Adam Schiff for Senate]( Hi there â My name is Ed Schiff, but you can call me Boca Eddie (because I live in sunny Boca Raton, FL now). Iâm almost 96. Iâm the proud father of two sons, Dan, the oldest, and Adam, who is running for the U.S. Senate. I hope youâll let me take a moment to share a few thoughts about his campaign. But first, let me introduce myself. I am originally from Boston, and left high school early to join the Army at the end of World War II. When I got out of the service, I went to the University of Alabama on the GI bill, but left early to get started in business. I married a wonderful woman named Sherry, got a job as a traveling salesman in the schmata (clothing) business, and that job enabled our family to buy our first home. We moved around â from Massachusetts to Arizona â and eventually settled in Alamo/Danville, in the Bay Area, while Adam was in grade school. I got out of the schmata business and purchased a small lumber yard, where Dan and Adam worked during the summer. We became members of a reform synagogue called Temple Isaiah in Lafayette and put down our roots. While Dan and Adam were growing up, Sherry and I always wanted them to be curious boys. To ask lots of questions, to listen and learn about history, civics, politics, and culture. It was also important to us that our boys were service-oriented, generous, and compassionate â willing to lend a helpful hand to a stranger, and work toward a shared belief that a better world is possible. [On the left, an old photo of Adam with his parents Ed and Sherry; on the right, a recent photo of Adam with his brother, Dan, and his father, Ed]( We always made sure that growing up our boys paid attention in school and took their studies seriously. I frequently told Adam that even when they take everything away from you, they canât take your education away. Sherry is gone now, and I miss her. Iâm also incredibly proud of the men that my sons have become. Dan is a talented writer and businessman. And Adam began his work as a federal prosecutor going after companies for polluting our environment, then served in the legislature before going to Congress to fight for more affordable health care. In his public service career, Adam has gone above and beyond to make a difference â a real difference â in peopleâs lives. To ease burdens and make their lives just a little bit better. I am particularly proud of what Adam has done to stand up to bullies like Donald Trump. I would tell you what I think of Trump, but that would involve a number of words not appropriate for this email. (Although I can tell you, my bubbie would have called him a schmuck.) It hasnât been easy to watch the attacks leveled against Adam, or to hear about the threats to his life and to his beautiful family. These attacks have not relented. They come from all directions. From Trump himself, his allies in the media, his cronies in Congress. And I always tell Adam â donât let the bastards get you down. And he hasnât. Adam rises above â because he believes in our democracy and in our ability to make a difference. Thatâs why heâs running for the United States Senate. So he can keep up the fight for working families, for his children and my grandchildren, for us all. [Now that youâve learned more about Adamâs upbringing and what motivates him, I hope you will chip in to his campaign for Senate today. Iâm proud of Adam, and I know he will be an incredible U.S. Senator. You will be proud of him too.]( If you've saved your payment information with ActBlue Express, your donation will go through immediately: [EXPRESS DONATE $3]( [EXPRESS DONATE $10]( [EXPRESS DONATE $25]( [EXPRESS DONATE $50]( [EXPRESS DONATE $100]( [ANOTHER AMOUNT]( Thank you very much for reading this note and for supporting my son, Adam. â Ed Schiff [DONATE MONTHLY]( 135 E.
