The dream that brought millions to California for a better life is increasingly out of reach.
We won’t restore California’s promise by looking to the past. We need a bold vision for the future.
That’s why I’m running to be California’s next Lieutenant Governor.
The Next Chapter
It's time for California to lead on solving big problems instead of just talking about them. We won’t restore California’s promise by looking to the past. We need a bold vision for the future.
CA has nearly 500k young people, primarily men, out of school and work. For too many, it’s not a lack of effort, it’s a lack of opportunity and support. We need bold investments in jobs, education, and mental health to help them rebuild their futures.

Trump wants to gut the program that helps hospitals prepare for disasters, from pandemics to wildfires. CA alone would lose $29M. It's yet another totally reckless move by Trump. If the past few years taught us anything, it’s that we need to be prepared.

CA’s agricultural workers feed the U.S., and many are among the 5.5 million Californians who rely on SNAP. Due to reckless cuts, the people who feed us won’t be able to feed themselves. If we starve the hands that feed us, we’ve lost our way as a nation.

I'm the 33-year-old running to replace @EliseStefanik in #NY21. I was told to wait my turn, but I'm running anyways.
Your job should pay enough to raise your family, and you shouldn't need to drive 2 hours to see the doctor.

My advice to the Mayor-elect: strike fast and use the momentum of this victory to get the agenda passed. Congratulations to Mamdani and the many more progressives fighting to get elected across the country.
CA is spending $17 million on private security to keep people who need housing out of vacant homes. The hypocrisy is out of control. We need to make sure our resources are used to help people find their way into homes, not keep them out.
We can build a California that works for everyone. Let’s Upset the Setup. MichaelTubbsforCA.com
In 2026, Californians can choose bold leadership that puts people over profit. The Working Families Party is proud to endorse @MichaelDTubbs for Lt. Governor — a leader proving that fighting poverty and building a fairer California isn’t just possible, it’s necessary.

Congrats, California! Prop 50 has officially passed. We used our voices and our votes to tell Donald Trump that he can’t mess with our democracy.
The status quo isn’t going to fly anymore. We need more big, bold strategies to keep making changes. Let’s get to work!
Your vote has the potential to change things. Today, you can fight against fascism by voting YES on Prop 50 in CA. Polls close at 8 PM. Let’s win this thing!
California: today is the day! It’s time to push back against Trump’s extremism and vote YES on Prop 50.
Have you voted yet? Polls are open until 8 PM. Let’s do this!
Millions of Californians may lose health coverage due to federal cuts. This isn’t an accident. It’s a crisis brought on by Trump and the GOP. In CA, we’re doing what we can to fight back, but we can’t do it alone. We need national action to stop this.

Homeownership should build stability, but it’s doing the opposite. LA residents spend on average 32% of their income on housing costs (even high earners), making it one of the most “house poor” cities in the U.S. Something isn’t right with this picture.
