Here's something you may not know about me, John.

Back in my college years, and even for a bit during my producing days, I was a semi-pro pool player. 🎱

Believe it or not, some of the most important skills I developed at the pool table I still use today as a legislator. I learned that people like playing mind games when they want to win, and being one of the few women in a male-dominated sport taught me how to be strategic -- and not be intimidated.

Today is Women's Equality Day, and as a candidate for Congress in a field of mostly male counterparts, it's not lost on me that the statistics aren't exactly in my favor. Less than 30% of our federal representatives are women. In fact, I'd be the first woman ever elected here in CA-30.

But I've learned to channel that pressure by staying focused on what winning actually means: delivering results. That's why I’ve taken on some of the toughest challenges -- not because they’re hard, but because they’re important.
I've been a champion for efforts to improve street safety, increase affordable housing stock, and protect our climate.

I led the effort to improve transparency and keep people safer from sexual harassment and retaliation in the state assembly.

I’ve even taken on online ticket sellers to ensure Californians can see their favorite performers without price-gouging.
I'm running for Congress because we need proven, effective leaders in Washington that have a track record of delivering results. So today, of all days, I hope you'll join me by making a small contribution to my campaign.
