A message from Governor Jerry Brown

A message from Governor Jerry Brown_1
I am proud to announce that Governor Jerry Brown has made a video in support of my Senate race. The Governor and I don’t agree on everything, but he knows that I build consensus and get results on the issues that matter – issues such as education, gender pay equality and job creation.
Will you help me broadcast this video to voters by contributing to my campaign?
