I remember the painful day when the rights of same sex couples to marry in CA were eliminated in 2008. That language is still in our state constitution today. Yesterday, I introduced #ACA5 along w/ @Scott_Wiener & our @calgbt caucus to reflect the loving values of our state.❤️

The Bay Area Municipal Elections Committee (BAYMEC) condemns the senseless act of gun violence and hate against our community that happened last night in Colorado Springs. This has to stop! We condemn hate in all forms and the continued attacks on the LGBTQ+ community.

Every time a negative mailer arrives, the wise words of @MichelleObama ring in my ears -“When they go low, we go high.” Misleading as they’ve been, I stay committed to what needs to be done to reform the Sheriff’s Office. Jensen can stay committed to misleading voters! #GOTV2022
