    Chasing the Central Valley Dream

    I am deeply honored for the opportunity to represent the communities of the 14th Senate district.

    When we started this journey together, the mission was simple – serve the people of the Valley. Standing with the community today, we knew the journey to make the Central Valley Dream alive again would not be easy. There is much work to do as we continue to rise above this pandemic.

    I believe that by working together we can stop chasing this dream and once again make it a reality. I hope to have your continued support in making this a possibility. 

    –Melissa 

     

  • Correteando el Sueño Americano en el Valle Central

    Me siento profundamente honrada por la oportunidad de representar a las comunidades del distrito 14 del Senado.

    Cuando comenzamos este viaje juntos, la misión era simple: servir a la gente del Valle. Al apoyar a la comunidad hoy, sabíamos que el viaje para hacer que el Sueño del Valle Central verdadero de nuevo no sería fácil. Queda mucho trabajo por hacer mientras seguimos superando esta pandemia.

    Creo que trabajando juntos podemos dejar de perseguir este sueño y volver a hacerlo realidad. Espero seguir contando con su apoyo para hacer este sueno una posibilidad nuevamente.
