A friend of my husband has advanced colon cancer and lives out of his car. Want to help him? Or how about the countless other people in similar situations because our health care system is shit.

US judge blocks Trump administration from halting Snap benefits A federal judge said the plan to suspend food aid to millions of Americans during the ongoing US government shutdown is likely unlawful.

Good news, but we'll see what actually happens.

I’m voting YES on Prop 50 because we need leaders who aren’t afraid to tell Trump no, and who will stand up for all of us, not just their party.

This year’s Gala carried extra weight, CASA programs are facing both federal and state budget cuts. We can’t afford to let foster and justice-involved youth be treated as an afterthought.

At the same time, it was such a fun and inspiring evening surrounded by friends and local leaders, all

Last night I had the honor of attending the Gala for CASA of Placer, Yuba, and Sutter Counties. CASA trains and supports Court Appointed Special Advocates who stand beside foster youth and justice-involved youth, making sure they have stability, guidance, and a trusted voice when it matters most.

I loved sitting down with Sharon Watson-Hamilton from the Auburn, CA branch of AAUW for an interview on Auburn Community Television. It was such a great opportunity to share more about my background and who I am, and to talk through Proposition 50 and what it really means for voters this November.

My campaign manager began his career as a Promotor with the Latino Leadership Council after college, and he continues to be a resource and advocate for the Latino community today.

I’m grateful to the Council for their leadership and for the incredible impact they have on families across our region

The Latino Leadership Council continues to make a real difference for Hispanic and Latino families.

Through their dedicated Promotores, they provide trusted, culturally rooted support and resources to those who need it most.

With the beginning of Hispanic Heritage Month, it’s important to celebrate the history, culture, and contributions of Hispanic and Latino communities who have helped shape our region and our country.

Last week, I had the honor of attending the 11th Annual Latino Leadership Council Forum.

I took some time to sort out my feelings about all the violence that happened this week before I said anything. If there's anything this week has taught me, it's that as much as we keep saying words don't matter, they absolutely do.

I was joined by several volunteers, many regulars, who do this often to help families and those in need.
Fun fact: The conveyor belt in one of the pictures came from a City of Roseville grant (before my time on the commission).

In this same post, Assembly Minority Leader James Gallagher suggests we should β€œturn the other cheek” and do nothing while President Trump pushes Republican-led states to redistrict. Since when has that ever worked?
