I am so grateful that my friend @toniatkins joined us yesterday for my Women’s Luncheon and 2020 campaign kickoff. Toni is a real trailblazer and a true inspiration to me and to so many others... and I am absolutely honored to have her endorsement and support for my re-election. https://twitter.com/toniatkins/status/1124854009406164992 QT @toniatkins I'll say it again: @ZoeLofgren is the right person, in the right place, at the right time. I am delighted to strongly endorse her re-election to the Congress of the United States. http://pbs.twimg.com/media/D5xIwRGUwAE7MQG.jpg
