If you’re a real Democrat running for CA Governor, I think you shouldn’t be taking dark crypto money. That’s why I’m calling on all my Democratic opponents to reject MAGA Crypto money in this election.

I’m proud to stand with the 31,000 UNAC/UHCP members set to strike at Kaiser Permanente across the state!

1/4 Californians get their healthcare from Kaiser, and these workers who are the backbone of our healthcare system deserve livable wages, safe staffing, and retirement security.

Democrats in Congress—hold the line!

Americans want you to stay strong and fight to protect their healthcare.

If Republicans force a shutdown, it’s on them.

Too many Democrats talk a big game about single payer healthcare — and where do things stand? Just more talk.

As Governor, I wont talk — I’ll act.

We need innovative solutions if we’re going to solve California’s housing crisis. That’s why I’m proud of my plan to to build up to 2 million housing units on surplus school land! Check it out:

To my fellow candidates for Governor—join me in a series of 8 debates covering the wide variety of issues facing Californians, every month from now until the primary. Don’t voters deserve it?

No child should be afraid to go to school. AB 49 and SB 98 will protect California students and families from unlawful ICE abuse. As Governor, I will always stand up for immigrant families who just want the chance to work, pay taxes, & safely attend school.

Very proud to speak at yesterday’s signing of two critical bills I sponsored to protect immigrant families like the one I grew up in. AB 49 keeps ICE off school campuses and SB 98 ensures families get notified by school districts when ICE is nearby.

Proud to celebrate American workers and organized labor at the 46th Annual LA/LB Harbor Labor Day Parade!

Today we honor the workers and unions who fought for the fair wages, safe workplaces, and 5 day work week many take for granted.

Thrilled to welcome so many friends and supporters to my birthday party last night in Richmond, including Oakland Mayor Barbara Lee, State Controller Malia Cohen, and Contra Costa Supervisor John Gioia!

Should America even have billionaires at a time when so many are struggling to get by?

Hear me out - then comment below:

We’ve seen this already in L.A.— Trump’s D.C. takeover isn’t about safety, it’s a bunch of photo opps to make him feel tough

Thrilled to join LA Unified Supt. Carvalho at today’s LAUSD #firstdayofschool to welcome our students, parents, educators and school staff back to school! I’ll always fight to ensure CA schools are a safe place to learn for every student.

Trump’s rogue ICE agents continue to have no limits, this time detaining a 15 year old disabled boy at school in LA.

It’s disgusting, but we all have rights and can’t live in fear. Check out chirla.org/myrights for more information

We need to fight fire with fire. If radical Texas Republicans are going to redraw their Congressional maps mid-decade to rig the next election, California can do the same.

California education head sends message to President Trump as immigration raids continue As mass immigration raids and protests continue in Los Angeles, California’s Department of Education leader has a message for President Donald Trump.

Trump’s unnecessary military deployment & mass ICE raids in LA are reckless & cruel. Marines in our streets. Schools locked down. Kids arrested.

As State Superintendent, I'm protecting our students. As Governor, I’ll defend CA families and our values. www.yahoo.com/news/califor...

Today’s raids showed cruelty, a lack of human empathy, and disregard for the physical safety of citizens and noncitizens alike.

These actions don’t make us safer—they spread fear and tear families apart. California won’t be silent. We fight for justice, compassion, and dignity.

Let’s be clear- arresting somebody for peaceful protest is what petty tinpot dictators do, it’s not something that happens in a democracy. David Huerta and anybody else who was arrested for peacefully protesting should be released immediately.

Education is under attack—because it’s the backbone of our democracy.

They want to dismantle public schools because they know education is the great equalizer.

I know what education can do—it changed my life.
As Governor, I’ll defend it with everything I’ve got.

Trump administration sees 'no viable path' forward to finish high-speed rail project, moves to pull federal funding The Trump administration could pull $4 billion in federal funding from California's high-speed rail project within 37 days, following a Department of Transportation compliance review.

$4B ripped from CA's high-speed rail?

Hurting workers. Killing jobs.

Delaying the clean transit future we desperately need. This isn't compliance—it's a power play.

As Governor, I won't let them stall California's future.

'Unfortunately, Altadena is for sale': Developers are buying up burned lots Developers are buying up Altadena's burned lots. It's a doom or boon for the community, depending on whom you ask.

I see what’s happening in Altadena—and it’s shameful.
Disaster shouldn’t be a business opportunity.

As Governor, I’ll pass laws to stop this kind of exploitation and support Californians trying to rebuild.

Back from @CA_Dem convention. Shoutout to the workers & organizers making it happen. Solving CA’s fights—schools, housing, climate—demands all voices.

Why it hits home? This gov cheese kid knows: When gov works for people, lives change. Let’s build that CA. #TeamTony #CAStrong
