Families should not have to live in fear of being torn apart, and every child deserves to feel safe. I will continue to stand with our communities to protect and support all of our neighbors.

No child should have to witness their parent being taken away right outside their school. Today, I stood in solidarity with the community to send a clear message: ICE needs to stay out of our schools. The recent arrest of a father outside his child’s daycare center is heartbreaking and unacceptable

There’s nothing like getting together with labor leaders, rising labor organizers, community members, and friends. The John S. Lyons Memorial Foundation Celebration is about recognizing the power of organized labor to uplift and support our local community —

This morning, I was honored to speak at the University of San Diego @krocschool 9/11 Remembrance event. Twenty-five years later, we remember those who never came home, those we lost in the aftermath, and those who sacrificed everything to save others.

Protecting our environment and making California more affordable can—and should—go hand in hand.

Cleaner energy. Lower costs. A more sustainable California. 🌱☀️ This year, I advanced a package of bills to expand access to affordable community solar, modernize water rates, and make it easier to responsibly recycle solar panels.

One of my bills that came out of a conversation with a constituent is headed to the Governor’s desk. It is my firm belief that an HOA should not be able to restrict if or how you install an air conditioning unit at your home. This bill makes that clear.

Each year, the @sdiclaborcouncil.bsky.social hosts the annual Laborpalooza where we get the opportunity to honor San Diego’s regional labor champions. Each one of them are fighting for their members to have fair pay, benefits that support their families, and to retire with dignity —

Please reach out to your local Senator and urge their support of AB 2180.

Assemblymember Chris Ward @asmchrisward.bsky.social · 06/08/2026
AB 2180 would provide a practical framework for establishing tiered water rates that allocate costs proportionally to usage, ensuring that peoples water rates are allocated equitably and that their water rates do not rise because they are forced to subsidize the water usage of high-water users —
