Early detection saves lives. Here’s an update on my successful surgery for early-stage breast cancer and why I’ll keep fighting for a country where no one has to wonder whether they can afford life-saving healthcare.

I was horrified to learn that a man detained in Escondido had died inside Otay Mesa Detention Center over the weekend. Enough is enough. Immigrants deserve dignity and respect. Our families deserve transparency. And our communities demand accountability and adherence to the rule of Law. I sued ICE on the City Council. In Congress, I'll work to stop ICE’s chaos in our neighborhoods.

Young voters have been at the heart of this campaign. Your vote is your power. It decides who shows up for you in Washington: on jobs, on healthcare, on whether this country protects what matters to you. We can't do this without you.

I’m out knocking doors in Escondido and talking to voters about what’s top of mind: the cost of living, ICE raids in our community and corruption in DC. 

We have 5 days to go. Remember to turn in your ballot and make your voice heard.

I'm proud to stand alongside Mara Elliott and Assemblymember Darshana Patel, three women fighting for the same thing: real change for our communities. This is how we win, together.

Today, we lost a trailblazer for women and a fearless champion for working people. Dolores Huerta spent her life organizing farmworkers, defending immigrants, and fighting for women to have a seat at the table. Her legacy lives on in every woman who speaks up, every worker who organizes, and every community that stands together for justice. We honor her by continuing that fight. My heart is with her family and all who loved her. Rest in power, Dolores.

ICE is completely out of control. When I get to Congress, I will be fighting to reform our immigration system and creating more pathways to citizenship.

CA-48 deserves a leader who will stand up to Trump and deliver real change. @MarnivonWilpert is running for Congress to tackle the affordability crisis, stop ICE's lawless attacks on our communities, and make Washington work for working families. She's who we need fighting in Congress. Return your ballots by Tuesday, November 3rd. You can track your ballot here: sos.ca.gov/elections/ballot-…

Trump-endorsed Jim Desmond supports kicking thousands of CA-48 residents off their healthcare.

In Congress, I’ll fight every day to make sure you and your family are insured.

This weekend, I attended the 25th Annual Oceanside Día de los Muertos Festival!

What a beautiful celebration of life, community and culture. It was great seeing so many neighbors come together to honor loved ones and share traditions.

We’re going to flip this seat and the House of Representatives one door at a time.

No pain, no gain? Tell that to a family filling up their gas tank. When I get to Congress, I will vote to end the Iran war, bring our tax dollars home and lower the price of gas.
