So proud to announce that as Chair of the Bay Area Caucus, I secured double the amount of funding for coastal resilience and bay restoration — $102 million this year— a down payment on our community’s future. Every $ spent today is countless dollars saved from disasters and job loss in the future.

Tune in at 2:00 pm PT for a major announcement about funding for coastal resilience and bay restoration. #caleg sd13.senate.ca.gov/video/senato...

Big day for my legislation!! #caleg

It’s appalling and disgraceful that ICE is refusing to allow the family of this victim to visit in her critical time of need. She deserves the most basic human decency: the right for her family to be by her side (1/2) #StopTheRaids #NoMoreRaids #ProtectImmigrants www.mercurynews.com/2025/08/28/f...

We need to get big money out of elections now. That’s why Senators @senator_umberg and @benallenca Allen, Assemblymember @alex_lee and joined to discuss this core threat to our democracy and its corrosive influence on our democracy. (1/2) #sb42 #Democracy #caleg

Today I’m chairing an Energy Committee oversight hearing to hold PG&E accountable for the commitments tied to Diablo Canyon. Taxpayers and ratepayers deserve transparency, safety, and a fair deal — not broken promises. (1/2) #Accountability #CleanEnergy #CALeg

We are reconvening for a marathon end of session, tackling some of the most important bills in the next few weeks, including my bills on affordability, clean energy, and wildfire protection coordination. #SB540 #SB541 #SB254 #SB326 #caleg

The Governor, legislators, and an unprecedented coalition of enviro groups, consumer advocates, & labor agree: 
It’s time for a regional power market that lowers utility costs and accelerates our clean energy goals. That’s why I’m advancing SB 540.(1/2)

Here’s a clip of my press conference on my work to lower utility costs by @ktvufox2.bsky.social #caleg #sb254

Today marks the 60th anniversary of the Voting Rights Act. But it's not a time to celebrate. It's time to fight. We’re confronted by new attacks on our institutions and on every citizen’s right to fair representation. CA won’t stand by. We're fighting back. #VotingRights #CALeg #ProtectOurVote

The Trump Admin has finally withdrawn 2K CA National Guard troops it illegally deployed to LA to suppress peaceful protests against ICE raids. This was an incredible waste of resources, dangerous abuse of power, & a serious threat to our civil rights. (1/2) www.nbclosangeles.com/news/local/c...

The ASM Health Committee just passed the Defending Physicians Decisions Act! This bill cuts the red tape for treatments that insurers already approve 90% of the time so doctors spend less time on paperwork and patients get medically necessary care faster. #PatientFirst #CALeg #SB306

Great news for interim housing! My SB 606 just passed the ASM Committee on Human Services. This bill has a simple premise: local governments should prove they are utilizing the resources CA provides to them to ensure we reach Functional Zero on unsheltered homelessness, which saves lives. #caleg

Big news: Sierra Club CA joined the coalition of environmental organizations, labor, and consumer rights organizations supporting SB 540! SB 540 will create a more reliable energy grid, cut pollution, and help California meet its climate goals while protecting community voices in the process. (1/3)

Happy Fourth of July!!!

This budget bill is an abomination. I was on the Hill as a staffer when my member sacrificed her political career to pass a budget that fueled economic growth & led to surpluses. This guts programs for clean energy, food benefits, medicaid & medicare, carefully craftfully with evil intent. 🧵 (1/4)

Huge turnout today for Senstor Durazo’s resolution condemning mass immigration raids in CA. I stand in full solidarity with the Latino Caucus, our migrant community, and the values of our great state. We won’t stand by while vulnerable communities are targeted.

I’m encouraged that Congress finally came to its senses and removed the AI moratorium provision from Trump’s ‘Big Ugly Bill.’ This will preserve the work I have been leading in CA on AI regulations, including the most important AI transparency law in the nation. calmatters.org/economy/tech...

Here is my statement on the Trump bill that threatens California’s climate leaderships #caleg

Nothing says 'I care about the community' like sending my friend Ray Mueller into the splash zone for a good cause, the Cabrillo Education Foundation . Don't worry—every throw helps charity, and every splash helps me sleep better at night.
