Seven year old me in 1997 growing up in the Bay Area could never have imagined this night. Thirty years was worth the wait. #Valkyries
Bay Area, we did it!!! The Golden State @valkyries are WNBA Champions! And we only needed 2 years to do it.

“Dolores, for me and I know for a lot of people, has been a role model of how you can dedicate your life to serving others, to making other people’s lives better.” -Julián Castro, CEO of the Latino Community Foundation
Elected officials and civil rights leaders hailed the farmworker activist, who died at age 96, as a hero, giant and legend.

"Dolores was a force for good and a force of nature. We honor Dolores today as we believe she would have wanted: organizing, mobilizing, and affirming our power at the ballot box this November." -LCF CEO Julián Castro

From @TheAthletic: The WNBA Finals starting at 12:30 p.m. Eastern is an embarrassment, our columnist writes. "Inexcusably obtuse planning, astoundingly bad optics, and most of all a wildly crappy thing to do to the people who consume your product." nyti.ms/4ssSHTm

From @TheAthletic: Natalie Nakase has led the Valkyries to the brink of a championship in the team's second year of existence. But her journey was unlikely. This is how a 5-foot-2 walk-on who coached in Japan reached the WNBA Finals. nyti.ms/3W8zSJ3

For government to work, the people have to trust and participate in the process.
The Trump Administration is actively trying to stop both from happening 4 years ahead of the 2030 Census count.
Thanks to @LeonKrauze for including Latino Community Foundation in his latest.
EXPULSIĂ“N + EXCLUSIĂ“N = BORRAR A MILLONES.
Esa es la inquietante ecuaciĂłn que planteo en mi nueva columna para The Washington Post.
¿Qué sucede cuando las deportaciones masivas se combinan con los cambios propuestos al censo de Estados Unidos?
Millones de personas podrĂan ser expulsadas o, sencillamente, volverse invisibles.

In today's @HoustonChron, LCF CEO Julián Castro makes the case for Latino voter outreach beyond one election cycle.
As former Mayor of San Antonio, he knows engaging voters at the local level can inspire civic pride and year-round participation. houstonchronicle.com/opinion…
3 weeks out: Latino voters will shape the outcome of races nationwide. Thanks to @EllyDearman for covering LCF's poll on Texas Latino voters.

2 for 1: watch the Valkyries win game 2 of the semifinals and get registered to vote. Love to see it @SFElections 🏀🗳️
Four weeks to go but a sizeable share of Latino voters are still on the table.
A Latino Community Foundation poll found 40% of CA Latino voters and 45% of TX Latino voters have not been contacted by any political organization encouraging them to vote. latimes.com/california/story…
