From Pro Tem Mike McGuire:

The hate-fueled speech directed to leaders in the California Legislative Black Caucus and others this week is vile and abhorrent. These words have no power in California, and certainly don’t belong in the halls of our State Capitol. Not now. Not ever.

Today is #NationalPetDay – so give your pets a round of a-paws 🐾 (and some extra treats) for being a purrfect addition to your family! 🐶🐱
