Congratulations to MANA de San Diego on being recognized as one of the CA Latino Caucus honorees today! MANA de San Diego does incredible work uplifting and empowering Latinas.
Thanks to help from animal lovers like those participating in the 30th annual Walk for Animals, San Diego Humane Society is able to provide more than 40,000 animals with shelter, veterinary care & rehabilitation this year. Lifesaving services for pets & wildlife throughout #SanDiego County.
Today is #WildfirePreparednessDay and #FirefightersDay . As we approach fire season, I encourage you to visit readyforwildfire.org to prepare yourself & your home. And a BIG thank you to our firefighters for selflessly risking their lives to protect our families & communities.
During #AAPIHeritageMonth , we celebrate the diverse AAPI communities across the United States. We also acknowledge the rise in anti-Asian hate crimes and recommit to our efforts to #StopAsianHate and promote tolerance, inclusion, and equity.
I created the #CADreamForAll program to give more Californians the opportunity to purchase their first home. I’m grateful for the partnership of @CARealtors in making this program a success, and it was great to join them for their legislative advocacy day.
Thrilled to see that Arizona lawmakers have overturned the draconian 1864 #abortion ban!
This is a huge win, but we can’t stop here. We must keep fighting to restore and expand #ReproductiveRights for women across the nation. #BansOffOurBodies

Today, I joined CALNENA911 to thank our 9-1-1 dispatchers for all they do to keep our communities safe and respond to all types of emergencies. I’m committed to supporting these essential workers who provide critical services to Californians.
On #WorkersMemorialDay , we honor the workers who have lost their lives or been harmed on the job, and recommit to the fight for safe working conditions for all. Everyone deserves a safe and healthy work environment – no exceptions.
On #LesbianVisibilityDay , I’m grateful for the opportunity to be the example of an openly lesbian elected official that I didn’t have growing up.
I’m thankful for all the women who opened doors for me, and for my fellow women Senators of the @CALGBT caucus!
Today, 80+ #SanDiego restaurants, bars, coffeehouses, & nightclubs will donate 25%-100% of sales from the 18th Annual Dining Out For Life to the LGBT Center San Diego in support of their HIV & AIDS services & prevention programs. #TeamToni joined Team Assemblymember Akilah Weber, MD to #GiveBack #DOFLSD
