HUGE news, John: CA Gov. Gavin Newsom just announced that he will appoint EMILYs List President Laphonza Butler to fill the seat of the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein.

Join the EMILYs List team in congratulating Laphonza by adding your name to sign our card:

Good morning, John! We are excited to share the historic news that California Gov. Gavin Newsom will appoint EMILYs List President Laphonza Butler to fill the seat of the late Sen. Dianne Feinstein.

As EMILYs List founder Ellen Malcom said, the governor has made an extraordinary choice. Laphonza was the first Black woman and the first mother to lead EMILYs List. She will become the only Black woman serving in the U.S. Senate and the first openly LGBTQ+ person to represent California in the chamber. And as a champion for labor rights and working people everywhere, we know that she will serve the people of California honorably.

So please, John, can you take a moment to sign our card congratulating Laphonza on her appointment to the U.S. Senate?
