Democracy is under threat, and Americans today have fewer freedoms than generations before. But we will never back down. This is America. We are a nation of rebels, and we the people—not one man—will shape the future.

This month, I read ‘Heart the Lover’ by Lily King & it took me back to late nights writing creatively, finding my voice, & falling in love with storytelling. It reminded me why a liberal arts education matters: it teaches us how to think deeply, feel fully & tell our stories. Highly recommend! 📚✨

Today is Election Day, California! From my two decades delivering housing to middle class families, serving as President Obama’s Ambassador overseas to nearly 8 years as Lt. Governor, I have the experience and proven record necessary to serve as a Treasurer Californians can trust.

Grateful for the support and trust of some of our country and state’s most dedicated leaders in my campaign for treasurer!

CA didn’t start this redistricting fight, but we refuse to sit it out. We will not let partisan maps silence communities, erase representation, or rig democracy. Republicans are trying to lock in minority rule by drawing lines to drown out voices. Not here. Not now. Not ever. #VoteYESonProp50

At the Governor’s press conference today, U.S. Border Patrol agents staged themselves outside the Japanese American National Museum, the same site where Japanese Americans were once rounded up and forced onto buses to internment camps.

First Colbert. Now Kimmel. Who’s next? Ben Rhodes is exactly right about Trump creating an environment where people start to self-censor. It is right out of Viktor Orban‘s playbook which, as Ben, notes, Trump & his administration have studied. The fight to speak the truth is far from over.

What’s happening in LA isn’t about safety — it’s fearmongering. Immigrants are part of the fabric of our great state. CA stands with our immigrant communities & is taking action to protect them. Stay peaceful. Don’t give Trump what he wants. Our strength is in unity, not chaos.

CA is worth fighting for. As State Treasurer, I’ll protect our values, invest in our future, and make sure not one CA dollar supports Trump’s hateful agenda. Proud to have the support of Governor Newsom, Senator Padilla, teachers, firefighters, and Californians across our state. Watch & share ⬇️

CA stands in solidarity with Central TX after this weekend’s catastrophic flooding — one of the deadliest in the U.S. in decades, claiming at least 89 lives. We’re especially holding close the families mourning the young lives tragically lost at Camp Mystic, and those still searching for loved ones.

“Bolsonarista raiz” virou ex-bolsonarista. Acordou?. Não duvido que ainda seja eleitor dos filhos. Não existe bolsonarista enganado. Aquilo de que ele se queixa no vídeo, o ex-presidiário da Papudinha já demonstrava em seu histórico como deputado federal inútil e incompetente. 1/2⤵️
