This Latino Heritage Month I’m honored to share that I will be serving as Treasurer of the @LatinoCaucus this upcoming session. Latino issues are California issues. I’m honored to bring a focus to this role, using our caucus’s resources to build power in Sacramento for the needs of our community.

Donald Trump should not determine fair mortgage lending laws in California, and with a stroke of his pen, Governor Newsom can deliver an alternative: AB 801.

Across California, the growing number of abandoned recreational vehicles is creating significant public health, safety, and environmental hazards in our communities. Local governments haven't had the resources or authority they need to properly address this.

The integration of artificial intelligence into health care is rapid and underregulated. AB 1979 puts workers and patients before profits and greed. I am calling on Governor Newsom to sign this bipartisan bill.

AI is rapidly integrating into our health care system and reshaping our personal experience with it. Protecting patient safety, keeping our professional workforce engaged, and preserving the integrity of health care requires that we not rely exclusively on AI to do things quicker and cheaper.

Look who popped onto the Assembly floor on our last day of session! 👀🤩 I made sure to remind him about the bills we’ve sent to his desk to deliver for the beautiful people of Oakland, Alameda, and Emeryville and Californians statewide. 😉🔥

This is what delivering for the East Bay looks like! AB 40, the Community-First Coal Review Act, just passed off the Senate Floor 30-9! Proud to be with my colleague @senatorarreguin in this important fight for our air, our people, and our future!

This back-to-school season, families should be able to focus on the joy of new learning opportunities, not stress about affording the tools their students need to succeed. I encourage East Bay families to take advantage of the free resources below to get ready for the new school year. 📚🖍️🍏

No child in California should go hungry. Five years ago, California became the first state in the nation to guarantee every public school student universal meals, and since then, nearly 3.5 billion meals have reached kids who need them.

When Trump pours money into coal, California must fight back. My new bill, AB 40, ensures that no large-scale coal terminal is approved in our state without a full environmental review based on the actual project and the most current science.

Yesterday the Assembly and Senate sent our state budget agreement to the Governor that included major real wins for our community. I’m proud to fight for spending that delivers for the people and our needs.

Donald Trump has once again chosen polluters over people. By injecting millions of taxpayer dollars into a coal terminal that Oaklanders have fought for a decade to stop, this administration is sentencing West Oakland, one of the most pollution-burdened communities in CA, to generational harm.

May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, a time to celebrate the AAPI communities that make our district so vibrant, and to recommit to keeping every neighbor safe. I was proud to recently meet with local advocates dedicated to ending AAPI hate. This work is personal to me.

The East Bay's history is workers' history. From the docks to the picket lines, our community has been built by people who organized, marched, and demanded better. This May Day, I'm proud to stand in solidarity with workers across California fighting for better wages, benefits, & workplaces.

AI in health care is advancing faster than regulations, but we cannot afford to give up common-sense protections. That’s why I introduced AB 1979, to ensure that direct-to-consumer AI health apps that use your medical records are subject to meaningful oversight, and to prohibit (1/2)

MTB 🤝 HRC Proud to stand with one of my sheros today in the fight for kids’ online safety. Secretary Hillary Clinton has long been a trailblazer, and it was a joy to share the work we’re advancing here in California, especially through the Children’s Caucus, with such a fierce leader.

California's budget should work for the people, not big corporations. I'm committed to fighting in the Capitol to keep our neighbors insured because losing coverage means more illness, more medical debt, and real public health consequences for all of us.

Joined the East Bay legislative delegation at the Oakland Metro Chamber’s first Inside Oakland panel of the year. We're heading into this session focused on delivering real outcomes for Oakland, meeting the community needs in housing, affordability, public safety, and more. Proud to represent AD-18!

This is the tradeoff they’re making: less healthcare, more deportations. Before today’s hearing, I paused to name this reality and remember the lives lost to brutal ICE raids.

Assemblymember Mia Bonta @asmmiabonta.bsky.social · 25/01/2026
Again, ICE acted as judge, jury, and executioner, killing a protester in broad daylight. Congress must act now: join our Congresswoman @replsimon.bsky.social to impeach DHS Sec. Kristi Noem, reject the DHS funding bill, and abolish the system that lets masked agents terrorize our cities.

Who said an informational hearing has to be boring? The Trump administration isn’t done attacking SNAP, and we’re not done fighting back. We’re staying ready so we don’t have to get ready.

Disgusting. The Trump administration continues to show no moral bounds, using our children to advance its deportation agenda. I have to ask: what is too far for Republican leaders in Sacramento and Washington?

My office was honored to attend the memorial service for the indomitable Coach John Beam this weekend to gather together in mourning and celebration of a legacy larger than life. His presence in the Bay Area and beyond will be deeply missed. May we continue to be beams of light in his memory.

When the East Bay wins, California wins. Our communities punch above their weight: powering the state’s economy, welcoming and defending our immigrants neighbors, and confronting challenges that mirror those faced across California.

Masked ICE agents believe they can act without fear of consequences while hiding their faces and terrorizing our communities. That is why I supported SB 627, which was signed into law last year and prevents agents in California from concealing their identities.

The deep cuts to our health care system in Trump’s HR 1 are threatening coverage for millions of Californians, pushing more families into medical debt, and further straining our hospitals.

After years of organizing, our movement has won: End Endless Probation is now law! Too many children were set up to fail under a system that kept them trapped in probation. With AB 1376, we’re prioritizing youth success, helping young people transition off probation and back into their communities.

Nonprofits are the backbone of our communities; they shouldn’t be targeted for cheap political gain. As a former nonprofit leader, I’ve seen how hard these organizations work with limited resources to serve those in need.

AB 1230 is now law! Together, we’re ensuring students facing expulsion get the individualized support they need to learn, grow, and thrive. Grateful to @cagovernornewsom.bsky.social for standing with us to fight the school-to-prison pipeline.

Birth control is now within reach for more Californians. I’m proud to have led AB 50 to ensure Medi-Cal recipients can get safe, FDA-approved contraception over-the-counter—no prescription required. Access to care should never depend on your income or insurance.

No person should face deportation in court alone. @asmmiabonta.bsky.social’s bill AB 1261 expands access to a lawyer for unaccompanied children to defend their rights in court. @cagovernornewsom.bsky.social - Protect children from Trump's mass deportations and sign AB 1261 into law!

Assemblymember Mia Bonta @asmmiabonta.bsky.social · 18/09/2025
As we fight against Trump’s authoritarian deportation machine, AB 1261 will help children facing immigration in California obtain legal counsel to ensure they have a fair day in court. This bill is a question of our values, and I’m hopeful @cagovernornewsom.bsky.social will see the need to sign it.
