Tomorrow marks a special day in our campaign. Not only is it our first fundraising deadline, but it also marks three weeks since the start of our campaign! In this short time, we have begun laying the foundation to be successful in the coming year. I am pleased to say that I’ve earned the endorsement of folks like former Yakama Nation Councilmember Asa Washines, State Senator Rebecca Saldaña, and Yakima City Councilmember Danny Herrera. With their support and that of the rest of the community, I know I can be successful.
If you missed it, several local newspapers, including the Yakima Herald-Republic and El Sol De Yakima, covered my candidacy for State Senate. I am proud that our campaign is already receiving media coverage as we inform our community about this important race.

It’s important to remember that district lines remain to be redrawn following the Voting Rights Act lawsuit. We must be prepared to show a strong and well-organized campaign regardless of the new district lines. Meeting our first fundraising deadline goal will help us do just that. We are only $3,000 away from our first fundraising goal. Will you make a contribution today to help push us over the line?
If you’ve already donated or are unable to give at this time, please consider telling your friends and family about my campaign and encourage them to contribute. Running to be Yakima’s first Democratic Latina Senator will be a tough challenge but with your support, I know we can be successful.
Thank you,
