Please join the San Francisco Progressive Alliance in welcoming Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to San Francisco! This fundraising event is presented in partnership with SFPA's core member-organizations: the San Francisco Latino Democratic Club, San Francisco Berniecrats, Harvey Milk LGBTQ Democratic Club, and the Democratic Socialists of America: San Francisco.

As you've no doubt heard, Alexandria beat 10-term incumbent Joe Crowley in the NY-14 primary last month. In the context of the generational turnover of the Democratic Party, she is showing what it means to pound the pavement (literally), to know your community and to embrace an economic future grounded in equality. She's downright inspiring in a moment when it's in short supply.
