Whether it’s surfing, leading a nonprofit to secure our future, or representing seniors and students with disabilities in pro bono legal work, I’m never afraid of a challenge. I'll take that mindset to Congress to fight for reproductive rights, our democracy, and OC families.

Throughout America MAGA Republicans are passing abortion bans and forcing women, including domestic violence survivors, to continue pregnancies while simultaneously making it easier for their abusers to get guns. We need more women in Congress to protect our rights.

Women’s rights are human rights, that is why I will not stop my fight until we codify #RoevsWade and pass legislation that will protect our future generations from the inhumane decisions of MAGA extremists in Washington.

While our blue state of California has protected abortion access, it is time to now protect the rights of women in Alabama, Texas, & Tennessee. We cannot leave them behind. In Congress, my #1 priority is to protect women & their reproductive rights, regardless of their zip code.

For those counting, we've knocked 74 doors and have 75 left. Little lunch break right now at the cutest pizza place ever before we head back out. It was pouring rain for the first couple of hours. We are hoping for better weather the rest of the afternoon!

I have been a lawyer for 27 years, with a documented history of fighting for our most vulnerable Orange County community members. When local seniors were being evicted from their homes, I fought for them. When domestic abuse survivors needed protection, I fought for them. /1🧵

Our campaign just learned some exciting news from a newly released FEC report! I cannot thank you enough for entrusting me with your support for #CA47 . We have created a community built on common beliefs and values on issues like reproductive rights, gun safety, and clean energy.

Celebrating my amazing mom at the Getty Center on her 80th birthday today. Her strength, loyalty, humor, fearlessness, and love of family have been a constant inspiration to me. If you'd like to wish her a "Happy Birthday!" I will be sure to pass on the message. I love you, Mom!

Every day, whether canvassing or at the grocery store, I talk with #CA47 voters and listen to their concerns. I have been a pro bono lawyer for decades advocating for victims, seniors & children with special needs. When elected to Congress, I will deliver for OC families.

Congratulations to the countless organizers & voters who made this victory possible. Voters once again have embraced women's reproductive freedom and rejected Republican extremism. In 2024 we will take back the House majority and protect reproductive freedom across the US.

🚨ABORTION WINS🚨 Ohio Issue 1, which enshrines the right to an abortion in the state constitution, has PASSED! The pro-choice majority in Ohio made their voices loud and clear at the ballot box today, letting anti-choice Republicans know that abortion is a winning issue!

I'll keep saying it until it changes: It is unconscionable that gun violence is the #1 cause of death for children and teens. In Congress, I will fight for common sense gun laws that will protect our kids and their classrooms, because desks are for learning not hiding. #CA47

Fall has brought some of our best family memories, from visiting Tanaka Farms’ pumpkin patch to trick-or-treating with our 3 kids in search of their favorite candy (with Snickers going to Mom!). Wishing everyone a fun & safe Halloween filled with memories that last a lifetime.
