John,

With Vice President-elect Kamala Harris becoming the first Black woman in
our country’s history to head to the White House, California Governor
Newsom has a big decision to make.

He must appoint someone to represent California in the Senate for the
remainder of Kamala’s term.

Governor Newsom should continue Kamala Harris’s extraordinary legacy as
the daughter of Black and South Asian immigrants and the first Black woman
to represent California in the U.S. Senate. He should appoint California’s
second Black woman Senator to fill this seat.

In fact, many news reports already indicate that two progressive Black
women are on the short list to succeed Kamala Harris in the Senate:
Congresswoman Karen Bass from Los Angeles and Congresswoman Barbara Lee
from Oakland.

Let’s make sure Gov. Newsom hears us loud and clear:

Thank you for raising your voice today. Vice President-elect Kamala Harris
has already made an extraordinary legacy. Let’s make sure California keeps
it up.
