*** Kevin de Leon has been endorsed for U.S. Senate by the CDP ***

Since we earned the California Democratic Party’s endorsement, there has been think piece after think piece about what this means for the future of our party, and for Senator Dianne Feinstein.
Here’s what it means: voters are eager for bold leadership, fresh faces, and progressive values at every level of government.
Having a legitimate progressive choice for U.S. Senate on the ballot this November will strengthen our democracy and drive turnout down-ballot.
I’m proud to provide that choice, and I’m eager to debate Senator Feinstein on the issues facing hard working Californians in the run up to November.
As I’ve said since the beginning of this race, I’m not running against Senator Feinstein.
I’m running for the millions of Californians who have been left behind by backwards economic policies and the Washington establishment.
I’m running for immigrant children and parents callously separated from each other.
I’m running for Medicare for All, because health care is a human right, not a privilege that only the wealthy should enjoy.
I’m running for Net Neutrality, to ensure Californians always have unfettered access to the internet and online free speech.
I’m running for you, and the millions of Californians who grit through the tough times to provide a better life for their families and children.
I’m running for a just tax system that doesn’t put the interests of the incredibly rich ahead of those working two or three jobs to make ends meet.
