When our democracy faces threats and our community's health hangs in the balance, we must take a stand. Prop 50 may not be perfect, but these aren't normal times. Your voice matters - especially now. ⚡️ #HealthAndDemocracy

Did you know your zip code impacts your health more than your genetic code? 80-90% of health outcomes are determined outside the doctor's office - in where we live, work, and play. These social factors shape our wellbeing far more than medical visits alone. #HealthEquity

When I was elected to the Assembly, there were only five Black OB-GYNs in San Diego County. I was one of them. Black women face maternal mortality rates nearly 3x higher than white women. Being heard can save lives. Watch the full conversation here: https://youtu.be/0ZXqUZl8Pe8

Kayleigh McEnany described Joe Biden but could easily be describing President Trump - a president who is not adequate to do the job. A president that made disastrous decisions that could have ramifications on the American people.

As authors, we love our readers and meeting/alking to you. We do book events and love them, but they're exhausting. We are "on" the entire time, which is extra hard for more introverted authors- and most authors ARE introverted. Please treat authors you meet with grace at events. #booksky

Ghislaine Maxwell pleaded the 5th Amendment today and refused to answer questions because the President is waving a pardon over her head. In no way should she ever be pardoned. I call on the President to firmly commit to never pardoning her. The victims deserve justice.
