I'm not taking any corporate PAC money, but I am taking the @progressivevictory pledge, and I challenge any corporate Democrat to do the same — spoiler alert, they won't.

The campaign has ended, but the mission remains. We must wrest control of our country away from the corporations and back into the hands of people. And the only force capable of doing that is a movement of people unlike any we have seen in generations. Thank you to everyone who volunteered and supported this campaign, to all the young people who got involved in politics for the first time through this campaign, and I hope you will stay in this fight with me.

No matter what the result is tonight, I’m so proud of what we’ve built together. Being a part of a team like this is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and I’m never going to forget it. Looking forward to continuing this fight with you all, to November and beyond.

I’ve called San Francisco home since I was 23. It’s where I’ve met my closest friends, raised my daughter, built my life. This city gave me everything. I’m running for Congress to make sure the next generation can build a life here too.

Trump’s budget cuts are gutting critical services in San Francisco, but this June we can fight back. I’m supporting the Overpaid CEO Act to make executives pay their fair share and fund public health, housing, and safety so working people aren’t stuck footing the bill.

It’s becoming clearer and clearer that AIPAC is doing everything they can to keep me out of the top two & secure a win for Scott Wiener in November. First we heard reports that an AIPAC affiliated group is dumping $475k into this race at the last minute to keep me out of the general. And now, according to multiple sources, a pro-Israel donor said Scott Wiener admitted to lying about his stance on the genocide in Gaza for political points. Scott will say and do anything to get into office, and so will the AIPAC lobby that’s backing him. In a general head-to-head, I'm tied with Scott Wiener in the polls, which means we could win this in November and send someone to Congress that will actually fight to end AIPAC and corporate money in our politics. The era of corporate Democrats that lie to voters is over. San Francisco, make sure you vote on June 2nd.

Israel doesn't distinguish between money for ‘offensive' and 'defensive' weapons, so neither should we.

Israel has been committing a genocide in Gaza and is now committing ethnic cleansing in Lebanon. Ending funding isn't enough — we need sanctions.

We need a four-day workweek. The five-day workweek didn’t come from CEOs. It came from workers organizing and legislators protecting those workers. As AI reshapes work, we need stronger unions and legislation to distribute the gains of this technology across society.

It's always been about people-powered movements, and this time it's not just one of us at the top of a presidential ticket. This time, we have candidates across the country ready to change the party.

The AI lobby has entered our race to bankroll my opponent, Scott Wiener. That's because he worked with them to water down AI regulations in California. As his reward, he gets a huge super PAC. I'm not taking any corporate PAC or lobbyist money, and in Congress, I’m going to end this kind of legalized bribery. AI oligarchs want to control your future. I will fight to put people back in control.

Somehow our representatives never question how we fund a genocide in Gaza, but the moment we bring up universal healthcare or childcare, suddenly there's no money. In Congress, I'll call out that hypocrisy and vote for what the people actually need — because I'm not bought by foreign lobbyists.

San Francisco could use eminent domain to seize PG&E's infrastructure now and switch to public power. We don't need new legislation to do this, all we need is political will.

Sat down with matt bernstein to discuss AIPAC, AI and the crypto lobby, and why they're doing everything they can to hide their donations. They are all are toxic and we need to get rid of their influence in our government completely. In Congress, that's exactly what I'll do.
