Still on the high from the DNC and the nomination of VP Harris to lead the Democratic ticket. Loved working with our clients to connect policy to the democratic process that makes it all possible. Now back to governing…
The United Farm Workers is proud to endorse VP Kamala Harris for President. Dime con quien andas, y te digo quien eres.
Kamala Harris stood with farm workers as CA’s Attorney General, as US Senator, and as Vice President. There is work to be done, and we’re ready. Sí, se puede!
This morning, AVAC presented @SenatorTimScott with the Adult Vaccine Champion Award for all of his work on increasing adult vaccine access. Thank you, Senator Scott!
Love supporting independent artists. Eden stopped by to hang out with @a2im and @joonyoftv. Congratulations to @joonyoftv and @brentfaiyaz for going gold! There are quite a few team members that have Wasteland on repeat 😊
Putting people over politics includes putting kids over guns. We want to give a special shout out to our client and Community Justice Action Fund's very own, Greg Jackson, for standing with @RepJeffries and @HouseDemocrats and calling for action on gun violence.
So grateful to spend time with @GeneSperling46 and @lift_rise to talk about their incredible work deploying Emergency Rental Assistance (ERAP) and vision for long-term affordable housing in Riverside County. Big thanks to Gene’s leadership and LTR‘s commitment to their community.
Immigrant farm workers are the backbone of our economy. They deserve dignity, respect, and a pathway to citizenship.
Proud to be the first of my Senate colleagues to join @UFWupdates/@UFWfoundation farm workers in the fields for a day.
From the apple orchards, Elena gives just one example of the real and tangible relief a work permit would provide.
We are committed to keep working, and we can’t miss the opportunity to secure work permits, ability to travel, and relief from deportation.
#StopAsianHateCrimes#stopaapihate So proud of the work by my business partner of 18 years, @ibbueno, to bring attention to this issue. We are all enriched by the AAPI community and we must be allies in ending this hate.

We’re celebrating Biden’s choice of @KamalaHarris as VP.
We commend her fight for equal treatment and protection of farm workers, and her long history of working directly with UFW for progress and justice. Si se puede!
Today, the House passed the #NoBanAct because no one should be discriminated against or singled out based on the faith they practice. I will end President Trump's Muslim Ban on day one and sign this bill into law.
I applaud the House's passage of the NO BAN Act today. In doing so, we have issued a bipartisan rejection of President Trump's racist immigration policies & blatant executive overreach. Religious discrimination has no place in our nation's laws.

When Trump launched his campaign five years ago today, he told us exactly how his presidency would be.
Our communities are resilient. Our contributions are essential.
It’s time to protect each other. #WeFeedYou
