As a child of immigrants, I know the value of our sanctuary state status. As Controller, I saw that our counties don’t have enough resources to best tackle homelessness. As Governor, let’s pull aid from federal immigration raids and redirect it to such key shortfalls statewide.

Through thunderstorms and flash floods, Imperial residents turn out for fireside chat, engaging on the issues of housing and homelessness, health care including mental health, the economy of a border county, and yes, the importance of working to pass Proposition 50.

Remembering the Hon. John Burton with members of United Farm Workers, whom he uplifted and afforded dignity. I miss my friend and mentor and think of him every day in my work to make a difference in the lives of those least seen and heard.

While I was in college, my father was hit by kidney failure. To this day, I am a caretaker for my mother. I know how important healthcare systems are – and how devastating it can be when they fail. As Governor, I’ll work with citizens to address our public health concerns.

Today, Republicans in Congress voted for a bill that will ensure Affordable Care Act subsidies expire. Thousands of California residents rely on these subsidies to afford healthcare. As Governor, I will protect your healthcare, especially when Congress won't.

Driving up the 101 on the Peninsula, you’ll see the DREAM Sign. Let me be clear: I will not abandon any dreamers as Governor. Be it our students hopeful, DACA Dreamers, or residents whose dreams have been pushed aside by crisis: my work will revitalize our California dreams.

I’ve never ignored the Delta region. Beside the great people of its communities, the Sac-Joaquin Delta is home to incredible biodiversity and vibrance. As Governor, I want to continue the work to restore and protect the Delta and all of California’s environmental beauties.

I graduated from UC Berkeley and have sat with students from UC Riverside, Cal State Northridge, and Shasta College (to name a few). As Governor, I will continue to fight for our public higher education institutions. From UC to CCC, we will protect students and their learning.

I am so honored to earn the support of former Vice-Mayor Sophie Hahn! Welcome to #TeamYee!

I’m a lifelong Californian; I know it’s crucial to hear the incredible stories of the people of our state. That’s why I’ve listened – from Sonoma to Turlock, 916 to 619, and Cerritos to my native San Francisco. Because it’s you, California, 40-million strong that I fight for.

I cleaned up $7.3 billion in waste, fraud, and mismanagement as Controller. That’s not just bookkeeping—it’s standing up for taxpayers who deserve better. I’ll keep doing this critical work as your next Governor.

I am so honored to earn the support of Supervisor Kate Daniels! We are ready to help all California residents thrive, and I am proud to have her support in this race.

Twenty-four years ago, on 9/11, our nation endured an unthinkable tragedy. We honor the lives lost, the families who carry on, and the heroes who risked everything. May we always find strength in unity and resolve in remembrance.

California turns 175 today. Since joining as the 31st state, it’s been shaped by grit, determination, and big ideas. The Golden State keeps moving forward—leading with innovation, strengthened by diversity, and driven by progress. Happy birthday, California!

Honored to attend tonight's Educational Gubernatorial Forum at Sacramento State, hosted with APAPA. Grateful for the chance to share my vision as a candidate for Governor of California and discuss how we can build a stronger future for all our residents.

I come from the back of a dry cleaning shop, not a political dynasty. I’ve spent my life fighting for people like my family. I’m ready to fight for you as Governor.

When my father got sick, I navigated his care with no roadmap and no insurance. That’s why I’ll never stop fighting for universal healthcare. Every Californian deserves it.

When Republicans tried to drill off our coastline, I said no. When they tried to let insurers keep death benefits from families, I said no. As Governor, I’ll keep saying no to corporate greed.

As California's next Governor, I will always make sure our residents have dignity in retirement. This is a fight we must win.

Proud to stand with the working men and women fighting for our values! Great to join the North Bay Labor Council this Labor Day.

Show of strength in numbers in Watsonville at peaceful protest, rally, and march for putting families first over billionaires. Fight on!

Proud to stand with our educators, firefighters, teamsters, and so many more who serve our communities and strengthen our economy.

Best reflection at the San Francisco Labor Council Pre-Labor Day breakfast, uplifting the faith communities standing in solidarity with workers: "To be called woke is not an insult in a world that sleeps through suffering. To be called woke is the gospel." Michael Pappas, Executive Director

Arrested in June for peacefully protesting an ICE raid in L.A., David Huerta urges the ongoing fight for immigrant and workers rights --- the fight not to just recover what the Trump administration has taken but to move further beyond to transform our society and economy.

As California's next Governor, I will always stand with Labor. This Labor Day, let's fight for the workers that make our state and our country great. We cannot stop. capitolweekly.net/california-w...

It's an honor to earn the support of Councilmember Helen Wolter and Councilmember Larry Spicer. We know what it takes to win, and together, we are going to deliver for all California residents.

We must stand with California workers this Labor Day. Join me on Monday! workerslaborday.org

The school shooting in Minneapolis is heartbreaking beyond words. My heart goes out to the victims and their loved ones. We cannot normalize children fearing for their lives at school. Gun violence is an epidemic that demands bold action—prayers alone will not suffice.

I shared a sofa bed with my siblings in a one-room apartment above my parents’ dry cleaners. I’m running for Governor because working families like mine deserve a government that sees them—and fights for them. Join me: secure.actblue.com/donate/bty_w...

Happy to join Mickey Luna and the Latino Coalition of San Benito County at the Visionary Women's Luncheon to honor Carla Torres de Luna and Patricia Salcedo for their service to the community, with a special tribute to Lupe Valdez, co-founder of El Teatro Campesino.

I didn’t inherit a legacy—I built one. Public school to UC Berkeley, daughter of immigrants to California’s CFO. Now I’m running for Governor to keep building a future we can all share.

When Republicans tried to drill off our coastline, I said no. When they tried to let insurers keep death benefits from families, I said no. As Governor, I’ll keep saying no to corporate greed.

I helped shut down the last oil platform in state waters. I stood up to Trump to protect our coast. As Governor, I’ll keep California at the forefront of climate leadership.

I am excited to welcome Supervisor Roy Lee and Councilmember Igor Tregub to #TeamYee! Our campaign's momentum is growing fast, and together, we will work for all California residents.

I am so excited and honored to welcome Councilmember Andrew Chou to #TeamYee! We are ready to better the lives of California residents across our great state. Together, we will get it done.

Nothing like seeing the successes and challenges in the North State—economy, health care, housing, juvenile justice and higher ed. Grateful to community, education & business leaders, young voters and fellow Democrats for the inspiring convos. Special thanks to the Redding Rancheria Tribal Council!

Thank you to the Sonoma Democrats for hosting this amazing event! What a great time with Democrats fired up to protect California.

I am so grateful and honored to receive the incredible support of Mayor Chris Bubser and Elizabeth Echols! Let's win this race, together.

I cleaned up $7.3 billion in waste, fraud, and mismanagement as Controller. That’s not just bookkeeping—it’s standing up for taxpayers who deserve better. I’ll keep doing this critical work as your next Governor.

The same Republican leaders attacking reproductive freedom and voting rights? I’ve spent my life fighting people like them. California needs a Governor who won’t flinch. It’s why I am running.

When President Bush tried to shut down medical cannabis in California, I made sure we were the first state to issue tax permits. I’ve stood up to Republicans before—and I will again.

As California’s next Governor, I am going to make it a priority to fight against Republican gerrymandering efforts. If Texas and Florida Republicans gerrymander their state, California will fight back–mark my words.

Republicans in DC are attacking our freedoms, our wages, and our climate. I’ve taken them on before—and won. I’m running for Governor of California to do it again. We will not let them win. secure.actblue.com/donate/bty_w...

At age 7, I was managing the books at my immigrant parents’ dry cleaning shop. Now I’m ready to manage the books of the fifth-largest economy—so it finally works for working people. My name is Betty Yee, and I am ready to serve as California’s next Governor.
