The CA Latino Legislative Caucus is proud to share that this year, Governor Newsom signed 11 of our priority bills into law, including expedited legislation to protect California’s immigrant families.

Today and every day is Indigenous Peoples Day. We honor the diverse Native peoples and original stewards of these lands who lived here long before colonialism, and we celebrate their contributions to our communities and society. Happy Indigenous Peoples Day!

Today is #LatinaEqualPay Day, a reminder that the fight for equal pay is far from over. 💰 Latinas in CA earn less than half of what white, non-Hispanic male workers do. 📉 Due to the wage gap, Latinas stand to lose over $1 million over a 40-year career.

This Latino Heritage Month, we uplift and recognize the history, culture and contributions of Latinos in California. #VivaLaCultura #RaicesFuertes #OrgulloLatino #LatinoHeritage

HUGE NEWS! Today Governor Newsom signed a comprehensive package of immigration bills to protect CA’s immigrant communities. Learn more: bit.ly/3IAy70N

Did you know CA’s Latino GDP topped $1 trillion in 2023? Without Latinos, CA wouldn’t be the world’s 4th largest economy. ➡️ bit.ly/4mdMqGj Diversity is our strength—and together, we’re building a more equitable and prosperous future for all. #LatinoHeritageMonth

This end of session, 12 Latino Caucus priority bills have passed the Legislature and are now headed to the Governor's desk! Read more about the bills in our latest updates: ➡️ bit.ly/4n29vNx ➡️ bit.ly/4gqcFs3 ➡️ bit.ly/4gph8ej

Today’s Supreme Court decision is not only hugely disappointing, but also dangerous for our communities, for our Constitution, and for our democracy.

This week #CalLeg approved 3 priority bills from the Latino & API Caucuses to protect immigrant families in our schools and healthcare spaces. They include: ✅AB 49, SB 81 & SB 98 These bills now head to the Governor’s desk for consideration.

55 yrs ago, thousands marched in East LA in the Chicano Moratorium. This moment in history is especially relevant today, as an extreme federal mass deportation agenda terrorizes our communities. Our voices matter & we must remain committed as ever to speaking up against injustice

#CalLeg passed #AJR17 & #SJR8 urging Congress to support legislation to create a pathway to citizenship. Immigrants are integral to CA’s economy—families who’ve built their lives here and deserve dignity, stability, and the freedom to fully participate in our communities. Sound on🔊

📢 The CA Legislature approved joint Assembly & Senate resolutions in support of federal proposals to modernize the Immigration Act of 1929 also known as “the Registry Act” ➡️ This update could mean a pathway to citizenship for 8 million immigrants who’ve built their lives in the U.S. for years.

✨¡Feliz National Latina Day! ✨Today we celebrate the amazing Latina moms, daughters, sisters, workers, community leaders, and changemakers who strengthen and uplift our communities every single day.

Statement on Border Patrol Operation in Los Angeles’ Little Tokyo

We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Leonardo "Flaco" Jimenez, one of the most influential figures in Tejano music & a master of the accordion. Our deepest condolences go out to his family, friends, & all whose lives were touched by his incredible music. Rest in peace, Flaco Jimenez.

Today, SB 627 & SB 805 passed the Asm. Public Safety Committee. These bills which will prohibit officers from wearing masks & ensure they are displaying identification, are part of the proposed expedited immigration package that will provide additional protections for our immigrant communities.

We look forward to working with Pro Tem Elect Senator Limón to champion for the rights and wellbeing of our communities!

ICYMI: Last week, the CA Diversity Caucuses came together to denounce the inhumane immigration raids and support SJR 9. Watch remarks from our Diversity Caucus leaders in solidarity with the Latino Caucus and our immigrant communities.

This Independence Day is not only tainted by the fear and terror instilled by egregious federal immigration raids, we are also seeing a huge betrayal of hardworking families across our country.

America is a nation of immigrants, made stronger by our diverse immigrant communities, and as we celebrate our values of liberty and justice today, we must reflect and recommit to making those values a reality for ALL.

California Latino Legislative Caucus Statement on 2025-26 Budget Agreement

While this decision does not rule on the constitutionality of Trump’s birthright citizenship executive order, it is extremely concerning.

The Latino Caucus stands firmly against the inhumane and immoral attacks on our immigrant communities. Yesterday, Senators Durazo and Caballero presented #SJR9 to condemn the immigration raids and call for support for the immigrant families that contribute so much to California.

The Latino Caucus stands firmly alongside Governor Newsom and Attorney General Bonta as our legal battle continues against this grave abuse of power and misuse of resources.

Today we honor Juneteenth, a powerful reminder of the ongoing fight for freedom, a celebration of Black excellence, history and culture, and a continued commitment to advancing equity and justice every day.

✊ We stand with Senator Alex Padilla & our CA immigrant communities

Senator Padilla is an elected official, carrying out his duties—asking questions on behalf of the communities he represents is not a crime. We will not stand for this appalling injustice. We demand a full investigation into this blatant abuse of power.

📢 Join us LIVE as the California Latino Legislative Caucus and leaders from the Legislature’s Diversity Caucuses stand together at our state Capitol to demand an end to immigration raids and President Trump’s unprecedented escalation of force. ✊ 📺 bit.ly/LC-PC-June10

Now, more than ever, our budget must be a clear statement of unequivocal support for our hardworking immigrant workers and families, including their right to life-saving health care.

Paramount, Los Angeles, and all our immigrant friends and neighbors in California, we are with you.

As our community comes together to support families amid these shameless attacks that are creating deep trauma, panic and despair in LA, we’ve learned that SEIU President David Huerta has been injured and unjustly detained. We stand with SEIU in demanding his immediate release.

The Latino Caucus wholeheartedly supports our member and colleague, Senator Sabrina Cervantes as she navigates this difficult time.
