RELEASE: LWC Celebrates Budget Victories for #Childcare, Women’s Programs Read the full statement: rb.gy/0nnbb

Incredibly proud of the California Legislative Women's Caucus for leading the charge on #Childcare rate reform in CA. Their leadership & partnership created a huge win for child care providers & families that depend on #ECE. Excited to work w/ CCRC4Kids EveryChild California Parent Voices on this effort!

Also, deepest gratitude to Assembly Education Cmte & Asm. Al Muratsuchi today for approving #SB274 - my #CALeg bill that would end school suspensions for low-level behavior issues known as "willful defiance." These suspensions have disproportionately harmed Black & Brown youth.

Check out what @lfrancis0 has to say in today's CalMatters story about Governor Gavin Newsom Gavin Newsom's proposal to overhaul the state’s behavioral and mental health system. ✏ @khwangreports #YouthMentalHealth #MentalHealth #CAPol #ProKidCA calmatters.org/health/mental-…
