53. Speaker Pelosi sent my daughter, Sascha, a beautiful orchid plant about a month ago

Thu Nov 10, 2022, 05:34 PM

Nov 2022

to celebrate the official confirmation of her recent graduation from UC Berkeley (after she returned last spring at 48!). Speaker Pelosi appointed Sascha as a delegate to the CA Dems in 2017, and just recently appointed her to the National Council on Disability, and has been very supportive.

She (or rather her office, I'm sure) sent the flowers to Sascha via Hoogasian Flowers in SF. (They included artificial sunflowers in solidarity with Ukraine.) https://www.hoogasian.com/

Just want to add that Sascha was sworn in at the SF office on Monday, and there were already tons of flowers sent with best wishes and support for Paul Pelosi. But I am all in, whatever you decide!
