Whether it's stopping ICE transfers and holding immigration agents accountable, or protecting the right to education for all, we won’t settle for anything less than a champion for our families. Thank you to all who joined us! Together, we're building a CA that includes all of us. 🫂🦋✊🏽 #WinningCA
We refuse to be overlooked and pushed aside. We will fight to be heard in the California governor’s race. Voters deserve it and democracy depends on it.
Politics can get loud. So we did something different -- handed the mic to the next generation. Take a look.
It’s not a mystery about what we have to do. It’s a matter of political will and leadership.
Looking forward to seeing voters at the San Joaquin Valley Democratic Club Forum! Democracy in action.
I’ve been overlooked, underestimated, and counted out my whole life. And yet I rose to shatter California voting records when I was re-elected State Controller, winning more votes than any statewide candidate in California history — including all governors. A record that still stands.

This is happening in the most diverse state in the nation — where communities of color are the actual majority.

Betty Yee for Governor@bettyyeeforca.bsky.social · 5mo agoFor a woman who’s usually stuck at the back of the alphabet line thanks to a last name starting with the letter “Y,” I appreciate this luck of the draw! In a large field of candidates, you’ll see my name listed toward the top of the ballot this year.

A diverse group of candidates facing voters in public forums. Tough questions. Substance over soundbites. That’s what California voters deserve - and I thank all the volunteers who make these conversations possible. Too bad Katie Porter and Eric Swalwell are frequent no shows.
