SEIU California has endorsed our campaign for AD 12. Their 750,000 members include the workers who keep Marin and Sonoma running.

I have stood with SEIU members for years, on picket lines and in the fight for fair wages and dignity at work. Grateful for their trust.

Sworn in to serve my 1st full-term for my local. Looking like I would on a picket line, all-black everything. One time a picketer told me I looked like a street preacher when I spoke to his coworkers. Hell, I took that shit and ran with it 😈🙏🏽🔥

Huge news! The California Teachers Association has endorsed our campaign for State Assembly. As an educator, I’m honored to have the support of over 310,000 teachers and school staff. I’ll keep fighting for great public schools and affordable housing for educators.

Back at it again this morning with Stationary Engineers Local 39 at Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital. These workers deserve fair wages and a strong contract.

10 weeks until the special election. Unless you think Charlie Munger Jr, a billionaire’s son funding the No mailers, has your best interests in mind, vote YES on Prop 50 this November.
Our democracy is at stake. Trump and MAGA Republicans want politicians to draw the lines so they can cling to power. Prop 50 gives that power to voters where it belongs. I proudly support Prop 50 and will fight for fair maps in California.

Excited to announce that Teamsters Local 665 is backing our race for State Assembly. As a proud Teamster wife, I know firsthand the hard work their members put in to keep Marin and Sonoma County moving. In Sacramento, I’ll always have labor’s back.

Let’s say we’re all sheep, and our members want to vote for the wolf. So instead of warning them or fighting for the flock, we stay neutral. That’s the logic we’re really using for sitting out in 2024. To what end?

Do not support the scam strike. It's not real. It was never real. Flor is stealing your money. Give your money to the @ufw.bsky.social who is fighting back and clowning the Trump administration, and winning in the courts, while continuing to organize and elevate the voices of the community/workers.

Grateful to have Congressman Mike Thompson’s support in our campaign for State Assembly. He’s led the national fight for gun safety and has always stood up for the North Bay. Honored to have him with us.

Happy Fourth of July! Had a blast in the Novato parade, cheering with neighbors and blasting “Hot to Go!” so loud the car battery died one block from the end. Totally worth it. Stay safe and enjoy the holiday.

BREAKING: The Senate has passed the reconciliation bill, gutting health care, food assistance, clean energy, and more in order to fund massive tax cuts for the ultra-rich.

Someone thought it was acceptable to tag ICE and call my wife, a sitting elected official and an immigrant, a traitor, just because she posted about the No Kings March.

This is the political climate we’re living in.

Over $1.4 million was spent trying to stop me in my last race.

But this campaign was never about them. It’s about us.

We have six days to raise $50,000 and show what people power looks like.

Thankful for these Prosecutors for Peace organizing and marching with the NO KINGS protest.

We need MORE prosecutors offices doing the same

This is one of the first times in American history a prosecutors office has organized and marched in a protest.
