Two days later, on January 5, she commented on the political situation in Venezuela: Maduro was a brutal dictator who destroyed his country & forced millions to flee.
For many families & small business owners here in Southern California, this moment is deeply personal. I stand with the Venezuelan people & share in their long-awaited sense of hope made possible.

Hitting Californians with yet another hidden fee — this time on everyday products with batteries, from tools to toys. Families are already stretched thin. Sacramento should be lowering costs, not continuing to make our state more https://t.co/Tt5qMjSb87.
