As we recover and rebuild from #COVID19, we must address the economic fallout women and families have faced as a result of the global pandemic. Check out my op-ed in @sacbee_news for my thoughts and recommendations on how we should reimagine the workplace in a post-pandemic world
The lack of support from businesses and the government has exposed the need for fundamental changes in a system that still can’t seem to decide if women are second-class citizens or superheroes. | OPINION https://t.co/2cDIRulyef
Of the qualifying companies based in Santa Barbara and Goleta, all seven of them now have at least one woman on their boards and most now have two. #InternationalWomensDay https://t.co/mHam62DaTy
Great conversation with Santa Barbara Talks reflecting on my time in the legislature, my thoughts on the recall effort, local politics, and more. Thanks for having me on! https://t.co/qcBNjACbKv
It was a pleasure chatting with @Trewstar about my #SB826 to increase gender diversity on corporate boards. We talked about the work leading up to the bill's passage, its overwhelming success, and my hopes for the future. Check it out! #WomensHistoryMonth
Happy #InternationalWomensDay today and everyday. Why? Because we’re not there yet. While we’re making strides, women’s equality—in all areas—is still elusive. The fight continues with even greater determination as we move into a post-covid world.
There are so many great upcoming events and recognitions in honor of Women’s History Month but I’m especially excited to join this group of accomplished and talented women on International Women's Day March 8th to discuss gender equity in the boardroom, including my #SB826
Clearly as human beings we must recognize the need to grieve— both collectively and individually-especially with more than 500,00 American lives lost in just one year from this pandemic.

Thank you, Michelle Wie West for being an extraordinary golfer, woman and role model, and for calling out blatant sexism designed to objectify and marginalize women.

This is an important initiative. If we are ever going to pursue policies and programs that serve our families and our children, we’ve got to pass common sense gun laws.

There’s no way you can watch the video of a violent mob waving Trump flags breaking into the Capitol and hunting down elected representatives or hear the desperate pleas for backup from Capitol police and not see the horrific consequences of Trump’s violent and inciting rhetoric.
President Biden is absolutely correct that the job losses women are facing as a result of the COVID19 pandemic constitute a national emergency. We must take action now to address the devastating impacts the pandemic will have on women's careers. https://t.co/k3MCFZyRGB
It’s always a great feeling to know when your work has paid off and made real, positive impacts in the community. I’m so glad that more oil wells will be capped as a result of my SB 44. Many thanks to Hillary Hauser, Heal the Ocean and all involved. https://t.co/KqtJ1yqIn5
Having worked to stop new drilling off California’s coast for decades, I applaud the new administration for taking quick action to recognize how continuing to drill is leading to the destruction of our planet. https://t.co/jjIYZZf8tq
President Biden, women across America respectfully urge you to direct the U.S. Archivist to publish the #EqualRightsAmendment to guarantee that women have the same rights as anyone else living under our Constitution. https://t.co/JqfNiy7bE6
Today we celebrate the 48th anniversary of #roevwade, but abortion is still under threat. Right now, 19 cases are only one step away from being considered by #SCOTUS. Restricting access to abortion doesn’t stop them from happening, it just makes them less safe. #PlannedParenthood
