“I respect and honor the strength of the women who came forward, and I deeply value the reporters who did the work to bring these allegations to light. The allegations are serious and disqualifying. Eric Swalwell should step down.

California deserves leadership rooted in integrity, credibility, and a clear focus on affordability and resilience - not ego, scandal, or chaos.” – Janelle Kellman

I’m Janelle Kelman — environmental lawyer, former mayor of Sausalito, and founder of a nonprofit focused on climate risk, environmental resilience, and oceans. My experience matches this job in a way that’s rare. And that’s exactly why I’m running for #california Lt. Gov.

Service. Community. Less division. That’s why I’m running for #California Lieutenant Governor — and it’s what I’ll bring to this office every single day.

Apparently I have a twin and his name is Keanu Reeves 😂🤩 I’ve been answering your comments and questions on here — and this one might be my favorite so far. What else can I answer?

💡Cut electricity bills by 25% 🔥 Invest in year-round wildfire prevention 📚 Make community college free for all Californians What issue do you most want California’s next Lt. Governor to tackle? Tell me 👇

Good job, hard work, and homeownership still feels out of reach. Does the cost of living in California feel impossible to you? #CaliforniaLiving #CaliforniaHomeOwnership #BayAreaHousing #CaliforniaAffordability

Californians pay 2.7x the national average per kilowatt hour. That’s not a typo. And for people moving here, it’s a rude awakening. #California2026 #LieutenantGovernor #NewToCalifornia #CaliforniaEnergy

Here’s what most people don’t know: a hidden chunk of your electricity bill is going toward wildfire safety costs that are never publicly disclosed. #California2026 #CaliforniaWildfire #ElectricityBills #CostOfLiving

The average American pays ~16¢/kWh. Californians? 45¢. That’s not just unfair — it’s unsustainable. I’m Janelle Kellman, and I’m running for Lieutenant Governor of California to change that. #CaliforniaAffordability #CaliforniaPolitics #CApolicy #CaliforniaElection2026 #voteCA

With fire insurance, there's no logic. No nuance. Just a higher bill… or no coverage at all. #CaliforniaInsurance #WildfireInsurance #InsuranceCrisis #California2026 #CostOfLiving #WatchDuty

Californians are paying too much for wildfire safety — and we need stronger accountability for how that money is spent. #CaliforniaLeadership #WildfireCrisis #CAPolitics #ResponsibleGovernment

Pick one move that matches your values and repeat it like you mean it: Refill the bottle. Bring the bag. Tell five friends, “We’re doing this now.” #ClimateAction #CommunityLeadership #CaliforniaLeadership #SqueezeLimes

Education. Climate. Economy. 📚🌊📈 This office helps determine who gets opportunity, how we protect our coastline, and how we grow our workforce. #CALieutenantGovernor

Community college should be free. Full stop. This isn’t about increasing taxes it’s about greater accountability in budget spend. #FreeCommunityCollege #CommunityCollege #CaliforniaLeadership #Affordability #WorkforceDevelopment #EconomicGrowth #CAPolitics

As an environmental attorney, small business owner, former Mayor of Sausalito, and founder of a global nonprofit focused on climate risk, I’ve built my career around taking action — not just talking about it. #FutureOfCalifornia

Education. Climate. Economic development. That's what the Lieutenant Governor of California actually does ☕📚🌊 #CaliforniaPolitics #LieutenantGovernor #CommunityColleges

Did you know that 1 in 16 jobs in California comes out of our community colleges. That’s why I’m on campuses across California talking with students about what this office can do — and why it matters.

I’m talking directly with business owners, workers, and families about why I’m running for CA Lieutenant Governor, and what that leadership should deliver. What’s the biggest challenge small businesses are facing in your community right now?

On #stephaniemillershow I laid out what it will take to move this state forward — not just manage the status quo. What issues matters most to YOU right now? #CaliforniaLeadership #CostOfLiving #ClimateResilience #GovernmentAccountability #CApolitics

When I asked Matthew and Greyson about protecting our oceans, they spoke with clarity about responsibility, climate, and the kind of future they want to inherit. What do you think California must do now to protect our oceans? Out of the office. On campus. 📍🎓

What would free community college have changed for you? I’m fighting to make community college free for every California resident. Education should open doors… not create debt. Out of the office. On campus. 📍🎓 #freecommunitycollege #workforcedevelopment #californiapolitics

We say we value education — so let’s prove it. Community college should be free for every California resident. Do you believe access to education should depend on income? Out of the office. On campus. 📍🎓 Follow along for more.

If we want a strong healthcare system, we have to invest in the people building it. That means making community college free for every California resident & removing financial barriers for the next generation of nurses and students. Out of the office. On campus. 📍 #CommunityCollege #FutureNurses

Leadership starts with listening. I’m talking with College of Marin students about affordability, climate, and opportunity — and hearing directly what they need from state leadership. First conversation in a new series — Out of the office. On campus.📍🎓 Follow along for more.

Pragmatism doesn’t mean capitulation. Elected leaders still have to get things done. We need new leaders in the Democratic Party. Leaders who focus on cost of living, housing, healthcare, higher education, cleaning up our streets, opening new opportunities for people to succeed on their own merits.

I’m tired of choosing “the least bad option” in our elections. I’m running to give you a better choice: informed on policy AND delivery of services. LFG. #California #CostOfLiving #NewLeaders #jkforltg @janellekellmanforltg

I am so grateful to our millions of veterans and service members. They exemplify what is best about America. Putting service above self, these incredible men and women continue to innovative while providing us with the highest level of security. Happy #VeteransDay #Leadership #heroes #jkforltg

Shown here, I had the opportunity last year at TMA Blue Tech to speak with NAVSEA about alternative fuels and sensor technology to aid domain awareness. These same innovations that help keep our air and ocean clean and healthy, they also help propel our service members across the globe.

Recently I visited this gorgeous overlook of the Eel River. CA’s third-largest river, it's a critical habitat for salmon & steelhead, a provider of recreational whitewater rafting & fishing, and a culturally significant water source for Native American tribes. #voteoutdoors #kellmanforltg #jkforltg
