Candidate positionThe working people of Southern California are under assault by the Trump Administration – and I won’t just stand by and let it happen. As the President attacks workers, immigrants, educators, housing that working people can afford, women’s reproductive rights, veterans’ services, labor unions, the Affordable Care Act, Medicaid/Medi-Cal – and democracy itself – we must fight back.
