At a time when even our fundamental right to choose is under assault, we must never take our rights for granted -- even here in California. That's why it's critical we pass Prop 1 this November, which will enshrine women's right to choose in California's constitution.

We are making progress, but there's a long way to go to fix our drastic housing shortage. I'm committed to supporting solutions that will remedy our housing and homelessness crises as quickly as possible. Relief can't wait. nytimes.com/2022/10/04/opi…

At a time when fire danger is getting even more serious every single year due to the effects of climate change, our CAL FIRE firefighters could not be more important to the safety and wellbeing of our state. I'm incredibly honored to receive CAL FIRE Local 2881's endorsement.

Friends and followers - please follow me also Senator Steve Padilla.

Last night, joined by San Diego Mayor Todd Gloria and other leaders, Senator Toni Atkins administered my oath of office at my District Swearing-In event. It is an honor of a lifetime to represent my hometown and so many other communities in the State Senate.

We went from the joy of celebrating #Pride with the California #LGBTQ Foundation Wednesday night to the distress and disappointment caused by today’s anti-LGBTQ+ #SCOTUS ruling. This is why #PrideMonth is and must be a continual reminder of our fight for equality.

This is very disturbing. SACTO PD we’re all waiting for an explanation ….

There is a tech tsunami coming & it’s time for elected officials to stop ignoring the costs of AI to jobs, safety & privacy. It’s not just driverless big rigs & union busting we are worried about. AI could wipe out half of all entry-level white-collar jobs in the next 5 yrs.

In California, serious leaders know we can fight fires AND pollution - and we don’t even need a whiteboard to get it done. #AtkinsforGovernor #ScrewedOnStraight
