1 day until Election Day 🕚 California families are being squeezed from every angle. Parents shouldn’t have to worry about how to balance work and afterschool care. As SPI, I’ll work to better align the school day with the workday to support working families.

2 days left! 🗓️ I’m proud to be the only candidate in this race so focused on literacy and numeracy that we’ve brought a Bookmobile across the state to spread the love of reading. California needs urgency to tackle our math and reading crisis. That’s exactly what I’ll deliver.

Josh Newman @newmanforca.bsky.social · 30/05/2026

3️⃣ days left to vote—make your voice heard! California can’t claim to be a leader in innovation and technology if everyday people are left behind. As SPI, I’ll expand CTE and real career pathways for every student.

Josh Newman @newmanforca.bsky.social · 29/05/2026

There’s 4️⃣ days until Primary Election Day—but you don’t have to wait! Return your ballot at a Vote Center, drop box, or by mail (postage is free). Let’s make our vision for college preparedness a reality for California students.

As healthcare challenges continue to rise, meaningful physical education can make the difference between a sedentary lifestyle and a healthy one. If we get it right in K–12 education, our students will be better positioned to thrive well into adulthood.
