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.

On Transgender Day of Remembrance, I’m holding the lives lost to anti-trans violence and the communities mourning them. We honor them by telling the truth, standing up to hate, and fighting for a world where every trans person can live safely and openly.

Last night I joined the community in Petaluma for the Chinatown Park plaque unveiling. Standing with elders, community leaders, and young people who are committed to keeping this history alive was powerful.

This morning I joined my Teamster family in Hawaii at Kapiolani Medical Center, where hospital workers are on strike for a fair contract. As a proud Teamster wife and union member, I wanted to show my support for their fight for respect, safety, and quality care.

Voters across the country reminded us what hope looks like. Yes on Prop 50. No on the Fairfax recall. Democrats elected in NJ & VA. Zohran Mamdani’s win shows a new generation of people-powered leaders is rising—and in AD 12, we’re ready for the next chapter.

Last night’s Day of the Dead parade in Point Reyes was a beautiful community event, with people of all ages marching, singing, and carrying images of loved ones. It ended at the Dance Palace, where a stunning ofrenda invited everyone to pause and reflect.

I was honored to march in Petaluma’s 25th annual Día de los Muertos procession last night. The music and dance were incredible, and a two-year-old dancer stole everyone’s heart. A beautiful night of culture, remembrance, and community.

I was in Fairfax tonight with Senator Mike McGuire, Assemblymember Damon Connolly, and community members talking with voters about voting No on the recalls targeting Mayor Lisel Blash and Vice Mayor Stephanie Hellman. Fairfax deserves fairness and stability, not division.

This evening I joined residents at Youngstown Mobile Park in Petaluma to stand with seniors who own their homes but rent the land beneath them and are facing 200% rent hikes. It’s unacceptable. Everyone deserves stability and respect.
