Hijas delCampo
Hijas Del Campo is a Contra Costa County grass roots organization that aims to help migrant and seasonal farmworkers improve their working conditions, health, and safety. Their goals are to ensure that every farm worker has access to legal and labor education. This is a way for us to create a world in which farming is not only a viable career, but also a way to preserve ancestral lands, heritage, and lifestyles.
Hijas del Campo (Daughters of the Field) was founded by four daughters of immigrants and farmworkers.
They support 200+ families

Biden Year One
And this doesn't include the last 180 days!!!
Through a difficult 2021, Democrats made historic progress … together with the continued heroism of our nurses, doctors, front line workers, first responders, and educators.
-
Passed a near $2 trillion rescue package, followed up with a major infrastructure bill;
-
More confirmed judges than any president at the same point in his presidency;
-
America created 5.9 million jobs — the most ever in one year — and unemployment dropped to 4.2 percent;
-
Every American, age five and over, can access a free, life-saving COVID vaccine;
-
And Biden accomplished all of the above with the narrowest congressional majority in history while the opposing party is unwilling to admit to the legitimacy of his election.
