#XavierBecerra is making experience the centerpiece of his run for #California governor, arguing voters should prioritize proven leadership in the broader #Politics debate.

🚨 Senator Murphy: “This is a constitutional crisis that we are in today. Let's call it what it is. We are weaker today than we were yesterday. China sees that, Russia sees that.” ‼️ We must all raise our voices! If you’re typing away here & not calling your Sens. & Reps., then what r u waiting for?
