CA Dems could be pushing for a bolder agenda at the state level, such as #Medicare4All and a faster transition away from fossil fuels.
If you’re a Dem who cares deeply about the kind of policies and candidates your party is putting forward, this is an opportunity to shape that.

I’m also proud to support @sarahkatelevy, who is running to be a delegate in AD43. Having been a candidate herself, she’s equipped with deep knowledge of policy and California politics.
