Jun 23

She's been my state assembly member and state senate member. She's served on the San Diego City Council before being elected to the state assembly and within two years she was Speaker of the State Assembly. After she was termed out she ran and was elected to the State Senate in 2016. Two years later she was selected as the President pro tempore of the California State Senate and served in that position until 2024.

She has experience at the local level and at the state level as leader of both the state assembly and state senate. She knows how to get things done.
