One year ago today I had the honor of being elected to the LA County Board of Supervisors to represent the 2nd District. I'm proud to serve with this dynamic group of leaders and to make history together as the first all women-led Board. TY @LACountyBos for capturing this moment.
NEW: @KarenBassTweets is "seriously considering" a campaign for Mayor of Los Angeles. Says she has been "humbled and really honored" by people encouraging her to run. (#DraftBass)
We also talked CA recall + @AAVREP_ work mobilizing Black voters. Coming soon for @NPR@KPCC@LAist
Proud that Hero Pay has officially been adopted by @LACountyBOS. Thank you Chair @HildaSolis for co-authoring this motion with me. Our frontline workers sacrifice and risk their health every day in service to our communities. It's time we compensate them accordingly.
Thank you @kynaknows! It was an honor running with you and our entire AD50 slate. Although the outcome was not what we hoped for, I'm grateful for every vote we earned that supported our vision of a more inclusive Dem party. Congrats to the 2021 ADEM Delegates!
IT'S OFFICIAL: I'm running for Los Angeles City Council. LA needs a new type of leader with BIG, BOLD ideas.
I can’t wait to fight for the citizens of the city I love.
Let's dream bigger, together: https://t.co/OS8ZnybDWc

Ok, now it’s really a happy New Year! Also those “forces at work” are @staceyabrams and the coalitions of Black women and activists who have been organizing for years to end voter suppression in GA. They are the true unsung heroes of this election.
News Analysis: The Senate runoffs appear to show that Georgia going Democratic in November wasn’t just a fluke. There are forces at work that are rapidly turning the state blue, redrawing the American electoral map.

@NaomiGoldman14@HollyJMitchell Naomi, thank you so much for being with us every step of the way!! Thanks for always being quick to re-share and echo why @HollyJMitchell is so uniquely qualified to serve as Supervisor. Grateful to have friends and supporters like you on our side.
The community showed up and made their voices loud and clear. It has been an honor to work on this campaign for this exceptional leader. Congratulations Supervisor-elect @HollyJMitchell!
I'm honored to have earned the opportunity to represent the residents of the Second Supervisorial District. This was a community-driven campaign based on creating a more equitable, inclusive, and prosperous LA County.
Now is the time to turn our vision into action.
@ElizabethDPower@HollyJMitchell Elizabeth Power! You are amazing to work with. Thank you for all that you brought to our small but mighty team. We did this!
@nikitathamilton Nikita! My Soror, sister and friend, thank you! This is how we got here. One person and call at a time talking about what Holly was about. I appreciate you for being with me/us on this journey. This campaign was truly lifted up by so many Black women who showed up and showed out.
We don't need more talk about affordable housing and stopping gentrification. We need leaders who have the integrity and experience to get it done, that is @HollyJMitchell.
No one at L.A. City Hall was more essential to getting the project built than LA Councilman Herb Wesson, who voted to rezone the site, eliminate the height limit and strip out language requiring city-regulated affordable housing https://t.co/YkD6gb2hkE w/@AlpertReyes
Since I have your attention @LACoSheriff, I’d like to say a few words on behalf of our community.
I stand by what I said. I have deep concerns over how the LA County Sheriff’s Department is being managed under your leadership. Here’s why: (1/6)
