California is fighting back. See my full statement 👇: speaker.asmdc.org/press-releas...

We have a moral responsibility to fight for the protection of our Democracy. I’m proud to stand with Governor Newsom, Congressional Leaders and my Legislative Colleagues to stand up to Donald Trump and his attempt to rig Texas’ electoral maps. To read more please visit: a12.asmdc.org/press-releases

I want to thank Governor Newsom, Speaker Rivas & colleagues in supporting fair redistricting to protect our democracy. This is more than lines on a map, it’s about ensuring every voice counts. The stakes couldn’t be higher: we will defend the Voting Rights Act & protect marginalized communities.

California will not allow Trump to steal our democracy. This morning I stood with state legislators, congressmembers, union leaders, nonprofits & Governor Newsom to defend our democracy. This is not a drill. This ain’t Texas.

Don’t tread on democracy, Texas—unless you want to find out what happens when CA fights back. As CA leaders came together to defend our democracy, Trump sent ICE to the doorstep of our rally—like a thug trying to silence dissent It was cruel, cowardly, and an attack on our First Amendment rights!

We ride at dawn (9 am on the assembly floor)

Thank you Governor Gavin Newsom for your leadership during this critical time. California didn’t start this fight—but we’re ready to finish it! @governor.ca.gov

In the darkness of tyranny, California will remain a beacon of hope for this nation. Today, we stand up for democracy.

These ICE raids aren’t about public safety or violent criminals. Most of the people being detained have no criminal record. This is a racist attack on immigrants and Californians of color, and it must stop. Take a look at how your legislators are taking action 👇

Happy 2nd Anniversary to our Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas @caspeakerrivas.bsky.social! ⏪ Let’s take a quick look down memory lane.

🥳✨ Happy 2-year Anniversary to our Assembly Speaker Robert Rivas @caspeakerrivas.bsky.social! ✨🥳

Happy Heavenly Father's Day to both my dad and my husband, Tom. 💙 It's fitting that Father's Day falls within Men's Health Month — a good reminder to check in with the fathers and father figures in your life. Sending love to all, and holding space for those for whom this day is difficult.

Happy Father's Day! Today, we honor the fathers, grandfathers, stepfathers, and father figures who shape our communities with love, guidance, and resilience. Your sacrifices and unwavering support lay the foundation for a brighter future for all. Cheers from my family to yours!

Happy Father’s Day to my dad, a high school dropout from a poor immigrant Czech family. After serving in the Korean War, he used the GI Bill to pursue a second chance at an education, becoming a college professor. I carry his lessons—in & out of the classroom—with me every day. #HappyFathersDay

Happy Father’s Day to the immigrant dads who sacrificed everything to build a better life for their families. Your courage, hard work, and love are the foundation we stand on. 💪🏽💙 #FathersDay #ImmigrantHeritage #GraciasPapá

Let’s not repeat the ugliest parts of our history… 📍 March for Immigrant Rights | Sacramento | June 9, 2025 🎥 Watch the video

Darn right. The federal government is targeting immigrants in ways that are not only cruel- they’re unconstitutional. ICE’s aggressive tactics are tearing families apart, sowing fear in our neighborhoods, and undermining the very fabric our community.

Proud to join together with my Democratic colleagues today to defend California’s immigrant communities and our Governor. We won’t be intimidated by Trump’s attacks on our civil liberties. #CaliforniaValues #StandWithCalifornia

My statement regarding the most recent threats issued by Trump:

HAPPENING NOW: LA Legislative Leaders Demand End to Illegal Federal Actions in Los Angeles County 👇Tune in here 👇 www.youtube.com/live/lddjBZ_...

Don’t take the bait. Remain peaceful. Peace is our power.

I stand unapologetically and fiercely with our immigrant communities— families, workers, and neighbors who have long been our city’s strength, resilience, and culture.

The Governor is right. Trump is trying to cause unrest by mobilizing the nat’l guard—without the Governor’s request or authorization—in an unprecedented power grab. Don’t play into his hand. Speak out peacefully. Never use violence. And never accept that this is normal or okay.

Thank you for the dedication and passion you pour into your work & the example you set for our students- day in & day out. Your work is absolutely essential to help our schools function & educate our youth. I’m proud to stand with SEIU Local 99. You are valued, you are powerful & you are not alone.

🏳️‍🌈⁠✨🏳️‍⚧️Happy Pride Month!🏳️‍🌈✨⁠🏳️‍⚧️ California was the first state in the US to form a caucus of openly-LGBTQ state legislators. This year, there are 14 members in the CA State LGBTQ Caucus! These individuals work tirelessly to represent our LGBTQ+ population through legislation that can change lives. 🏳️‍🌈

My office was honored to work with the Monterey County Veterans Day Parade Committee to memorialize local service members who gave their lives for our nation.

May is #WildfireAwarenessMonth. People are responsible for 95% of CA’s wildfires. Some of the causes include dragging chains, leaving campfires still burning, and discarded cigarettes. Educational prevention today will help protect our communities in the future. Visit CalAlerts.org for more info.

We walked in recognition of a very important community in my district over the weekend! It was the Merced Hmong 50 Anniversary Parade this afternoon in Atwater! I was honored to present a resolution to the Merced Hmong 50 Committee! I can also be seen smashing some mochi lol! I think I nailed it.

Happy Birthday Kermit! 🐸🎂
