I am honored to announce that I have received the endorsement of my childhood hero, Dolores Huerta, an iconic activist with a long history of fighting for the rights of working families. Her background as a teacher inspired her to co-found the United Farm Workers with Cesar Chavez after witnessing the struggles of her students who were children of farmworkers.

Dolores Huerta's commitment to working families, protecting their rights and expanding access to basic human rights inspires me to continue the legacy she has built.
"Sara Hernandez carries the true spirit of labor - courage, hard work, and a commitment to justice. She stands with the working families who harvest our food and build our communities, making sure their struggles are recognized and their rights defended. Her parents fought for farmworkers' rights, and Sara carries that fight forward. That's why I'm proud to support her for State Senate."
— Dolores Huerta
As a daughter of hardworking laborers, she has played a vital role in the Chicano Civil Rights Movement, organizing strikes, leading demonstrations, negotiating labor contracts, and even coining the famous phrase "¡Sí se puede!"
I'm touched to have the support of such a legendary civil rights leader who I have looked up to since I was a little girl. Dolores Huerta believes in the power of community, organization, and courage. With her support, we are quickly growing a strong coalition of labor leaders and organizations that reaffirm my commitment to standing up for our working families, our farmworkers, and our immigrant communities that are so vital to our great state.
