“As a nurse, Dr. Ida Obeso-Martinez understands how federal healthcare cuts are harming Californians. As a Mayor, mom, and the daughter of a proud union household, Dr. Ida knows the challenges families face at the grocery store and gas station. We need Dr. Ida in Sacramento to protect Californians’ healthcare from Donald Trump, continue our progress on affordability, and build on our landmark investments in California’s economy. I’m proud to endorse her.”
