California: September 14th

California! You’ve got a big choice to make by September 14, and everything is on the line. Your vote could be the difference between protecting our kids or putting them at risk; helping Californians recover or taking us backwards. Vote “no” on the Republican recall.

Live Painting

What an honor it was to be at an event like today! The city of San Jose dedicated a street after @BarackObama and asked me to do live a painting. 🎨 It was an awesome day, thank you Mayor @sliccardo and senator @DaveCortese for having me ✌🏾@BarackObama @ChelseaClinton pic.twitter.com/fOSu1budZq

Black Women Leading

Today is a moment shaped largely by the Black women who have long played a crucial role in our democracy. Their pragmatism helped nominate Biden; their insistence helped nominate Harris. Their determination helped to elect them both.

When the Constitution was written in Philadelphia more than 220 years ago, the founding fathers couldn’t imagine that a Black woman would one day help govern this country.
Today, the city delivered the last votes that will reshape America’s imagination. https://t.co/m4g7NxXBKW
