Avoid driving through flooded roadways, as water depth may be difficult to judge. Mountain travelers should be prepared for chain controls, reduced visibility, and possible road closures. Consider delaying non-essential travel during peak impacts.

It's NEVER okay to drive buzzed/impaired from drugs or alcohol. A small amount of alcohol can affect driving ability. Save a life, don't drink & drive. Call a sober friend or a rideshare / cab to get home safely.

If you see an impaired drunk driver, pull over & call 911.

Today marks the anniversary of the repeal of Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.
A historic victory for justice and equality. It proves that when we speak up and stand together, we can break barriers and create a world where everyone can serve proudly.

Really sad to hear about the tragic death of Rob Reiner and his wife yesterday in their Los Angeles home.

California kids are better off because of Mr. Reiner’s involvement in creating First 5, a funding source for early learning essentials.

May he and his wife rest in peace.

On Dec. 3, 1948, the United Nations adopted The Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which enshrines the rights of every human being.

Human rights are universal & belong to every single person across the globe. Everyone has the right to live free from discrimination.

Today is #GivingTuesday – a day dedicated to donating to local charities. Many people are struggling, which makes this year’s Giving Tuesday so much more important.

If you are planning to donate, what organization are you helping this year?

The news cycle has moved onto the next crisis, but our #SD20 neighborhoods continue to be the number one targeted area for ICE raids in CA. My team and I are here to continue to offer resources, and to help you connect with your congressperson if a loved one is detained.

California would not be what it is today if it wasn't for the 109 federal recognized Indian tribes. Native American Heritage Month is a time to celebrate the indigenous peoples' rich history and heritage, but also to raise awareness of the unique challenges they have faced.
