A big thank you to Ben Allen and everyone who helped pass SB54, the strongest plastics legislation in the country! CALPIRGStudent has engaged tens of thousands of students on this bill, and UCLA students we were so excited to be in Hermosa Beach to celebrate today! 🌊🐢

VICTORY! LA City Council voted to ban polystyrene, expand the ban on plastic bags, and create a zero waste plan! Our UCLA students led the way collecting thousands of petitions, making public comments, and lobbying councilmembers! A great step moving #BeyondPlastics!

The filibuster was created *by mistake* in 1806. It’s been changed, redesigned, modified, amended, transformed, and altered more than 160 times since then. We don’t owe it anything. Abolish it.

Today is bittersweet as we say goodbye to Sr Policy Advisor, Sophie Barnhorst. She has been with my office since day 1 & has been an integral part of the D7 team. She will be joining the SD Airport, where I know she will continue to do amazing things. You will be missed, Sophie!

Big news! The Academic by Gamegenic is coming to local game stores!

Thank you Governor Gavin Newsom Rob Bonta Senator Bill Dodd Nancy Skinner for your efforts to eliminate "junk fees." Consumers deserve to know what they are paying for, and how much, up front.

Thank you Gavin Newsom for signing #AB716 by Assemblymember Tasha Boerner to prohibit surprise ambulance bills. No one in an emergency should hesitate to call 911 for fear of a large ambulance bill, and they definitely don’t have time to consult a network directory CALPIRG Health Access CA

Just before Christmas, my wife, baby son, & I were hit by an intoxicated driver who fled the scene. Our car was totaled & we sustained minor injuries. We feel lucky to be alive. Nadia & I ask everyone to use a ride share or public transit this NYE. It could save a life. - RAC

This is the example I always talk about to explain how overboard we've gone on plastics. 🤦

Happy to report that #SB1053, my legislation to ban the use of plastic bags at grocery store checkouts, passed the Senate Environmental Quality Committee today! Californians Against Waste CALPIRGStudent

Victory! U.S. Department of Energy just finalized new water heater energy efficiency standards that will reduce pollution, lower utility bills and save lives. I was proud to be in DC last month urging DOE to #RaiseTheStandards. environmentamerica.org/california/cen…
