The federal shutdown is already hurting working families. I’m calling for an immediate end to the gridlock and action to protect health care, food access, and critical services.

It was a privilege to attend the MCAS Miramar Air Show today and witness the extraordinary talent and precision of our military pilots and personnel. This event is a reminder of the unwavering commitment our service members make every day, and I deeply appreciate the chance to thank them in person.

Pastor Glenn A. McKinney Sr. Oct. 20, 1969 - Sept. 19, 2025 He was generous to share a life rooted in ministry, integrity, & healing with us. He was a father, leader, and bridge-builder by his own right. He’ll be remembered with deep respect by all who witnessed his service & shared in his mission.

I had the opportunity to speak on the Pathways to Public Leadership Panel today. It was a powerful space to reflect on my path to the Assembly and the work still ahead. Public service is about impact, access, and accountability.

AB 829 was signed into law on August 28, creating the California Parkinson’s Disease Research Fund and a voluntary tax check off for Parkinson’s research. Proud to work alongside The Michael J. Fox Foundation to help move Parkinson’s research forward. 🧡

I was proud to help secure $15 million in Title X funding to protect access to reproductive healthcare, but the fight is far from over.

On Women’s Equality Day, we cannot ignore what’s happening in our state. The One Big Beautiful Bill goes beyond blocking abortion funding. It cuts off Medicaid support for clinics that provide essential care like cancer screenings, birth control, and prenatal services.

• Strong currents and hazardous conditions are expected along beaches and coastal waters. • Stay away from the water, shoreline, and waterways. • Do NOT go to the coast to watch the tsunami. • Follow guidance from local officials and emergency alerts.

🎉 I am so excited to share that my first bill is now law! When I took office nearly eight months ago, I promised to fight for our kids. Today that promise became a reality with AB 927 signed into law.   This is a big moment and a real step forward for students across California.

With deep sorrow, we mourn the passing of Councilmember Sitivi "Steve" Faiai. He was a devoted public servant, cherished community leader, and loving husband and father. His legacy of compassion, service, and strength will forever live on in the hearts of those he touched. 🤍

Did you know? Nearly 1 in 7 adults has faced mental illness. In California, communities of color, including Latino/a, Asian, Black, Native American, multiracial, and LGBTQ+ individuals are disproportionately affected by serious mental health challenges.

Even now, too many people live with fear instead of freedom. Inequities and systemic neglect continue to impact the daily lives of Black families across this state and nation. Juneteenth calls us to do more than remember. It calls us to confront what remains and to make freedom real for everyone.

159 years after the last enslaved people were told they were free, we are reminded that freedom is not a finish line. It is a constant demand. Juneteenth is a celebration of liberation. It is also a reminder that justice can be delayed for generations when systems choose to look away.

I’m going to continue to call for an end to the raids that target and intimidate immigrant workers and their families. The work does not and will not stop here. #SolidaritySummer

David Huerta has been released but he should never have been detained for observing a peaceful protest. The right to peaceful protest is not a privilege. It is a protected freedom. No one should be arrested for standing up for their community.

We discussed a lot from how racial profiling can be hidden in laws to why equity means meeting people where they are. Real change starts with understanding the difference. Your voices matter. Your leadership matters. #WOCROAR

Thank you Women of Color Roar for organizing an impactful panel discussion this morning with Lemon Grove Mayor Alysson Snow and I. It was powerful to witness young women of color already asking the hard questions and stepping into their leadership.
