Grateful to co-sponsor #AB2236 by Assemblymember Marc Berman (@asmmarcberman.bsky.social) and celebrate its passage out of the Assembly Higher Education Committee.

Building on #AB1111 (2021), this bill strengthens transfer pathways and helps more students stay on track to earn their degrees.

I’m proud to support the efforts the state is taking to prevent that momentum from being slowed by threats of federal funding cuts.

Great to see Sen. @scottwiener.bsky.social’s SB 895 pass its second committee today. The UC & CA are at the forefront of driving innovation & discovering cures through its world-leading research.

Today, on California Holocaust Memorial Day, we honor the millions who were murdered & stand in solidarity with survivors & their families.

We remember not only the depth of this tragedy, but our responsibility to confront hate in all its forms & defend the dignity & humanity of every person.

I’ve had the privilege of working closely with Libby Schaaf and have seen firsthand the clarity, dedication, and leadership she brings.

The Bay Area Council will be stronger with her as President and CEO. Excited to see all that will flourish under her leadership.

“Sí, se puede” isn’t just a slogan — it’s a call to action we carry forward every day.

Grateful for her leadership, inspired by her legacy, and committed to continuing the work.

It is about the countless farmworkers who organized, sacrificed, and demanded dignity, fairness, and respect.

We stand on their shoulders, and we will keep fighting for them.

My father came to the United States in search of opportunity and worked as a farmworker. I carry his story with me every day.

Today on #FarmworkersDay, we honor the generations of workers whose labor feeds our nation and fuels California’s success. This movement has never been about one person.

He greenlit defunct oil pipelines without California’s approval, then tried to blame us for rising gas prices.

We see through it, and we will hold him accountable for his actions.
