Congressmember Barbara Lee (D-Oakland), who's running for the U.S. Senate seat on the March primary ballot, visited San Francisco January 5. Lee purchased a coat from a vendor in La Placita, a pop-up market at 24th and Capp streets, as she was welcomed into the Mission district from representatives of the Calle 24 Latino Cultural District and the San Francisco Latinx Democratic Club. Lee will join Democratic Senate candidates Congressmembers Adam Schiff (D-Burbank) and Katie Porter (D-Irvine), and Republican candidate Steve Garvey, in a televised debate from Los Angeles Monday, January 22, which will be broadcast locally on KTVU-TV.
