On Wednesday, March 30^th at 2:00 p.m., I am hosting a town hall on Russia's War on Ukraine with special guest Steven Pifer, William J. Perry Fellow at Stanford University, former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine, and former Foreign Service officer with more than 25 years in the State Department including assignments with responsibilities for Russia and Ukraine.

Don't forget to RSVP for today's town hall at 7:00 p.m. on Women's Rights as Human Rights. Come hear more about the attacks on women's health, the invaluable way women contribute to the economy, and more.

Last week, I had the opportunity to attend President Biden's State of the Union address and hear him lay out Democrats' plans to continue supporting American families by lowering the costs of their everyday expenses and to support democracy at home and abroad by standing with the people of Ukraine against Vladimir Putin's unlawful, brazen, and horrific attacks on their sovereignty.

I was proud to have First 5 Contra Costa Executive Director Ruth Fernandez join me as my virtual guest in recognition of her work to support the education of children across the County.
