(Prefers Democratic Party) statement appears humanWe deserve leaders with a proven record of bringing people together to solve tough problems. I have listened to our community to deliver meaningful results. My work is guided by science and data and rooted in collaboration, honesty, and integrity. I have led efforts to strengthen public safety, expand behavioral health care, protect reproductive freedom, and defend civil rights. We need bold leaders, committed to justice. I’ve worked alongside survivors, law enforcement and community organizations to improve victim services, strengthen accountability, expand crisis response systems, and connect people experiencing mental illness and addiction with treatment. Each of us has a role to play in the prosperity of our state. We must continue advancing social equity, investing responsibly in transportation, and empowering our children to become the leaders we need to continue our tremendous economic growth. Our state must remain a leader in innovation and in creating opportunities for all. With your vote, I would be honored to continue working to protect our democracy, improve healthcare access, defend workers, protect seniors, small businesses, and immigrants, and fight for a safe and livable planet.
