California's affordability crisis gets worse every year. Rent is skyrocketing, childcare is becoming a luxury, and healthcare costs more than ever. It doesn't have to be this way.

I'm Colin Hernandez and I'm running for CA's 51st Assembly District to change this. Join me!
You made antisemitism worse in CA! It’s extremely dangerous to conflate anti-Zionism with antisemitism.

We must tackle antisemitism in CA, no question, but the biggest perpetrators of antisemitism are Neo-Nazis, Christian Nationalists, and white supremacists not Pro-Palestine protestors.
That is why #AB715, my bill to combat antisemitism in schools, is so important.

TY @dawnaddis.bsky.social for co-authoring. (2/2)

“When it rains it pours, they got money for wars but can’t feed the poor.”

It’s disgusting to see what our country prioritizes in times of crisis. The US is one of the richest countries in the world. No one should go hungry.

Using people's hunger as a bargaining chip is evil.

Billionaires are destroying our planet, they’re sucking every single resource, and we as tax payers subsidize their companies.

Poor people aren’t the problem, billionaires are.

Trump is extorting the American people.

Roughly 1 in 8 Californians will have their CalFresh (SNAP) benefits taken away on Nov 1. 63% of CalFresh recipients are seniors and children.

He has the power to stop this, but he won't.

I’ve always been someone who has protested against our country’s injustices. It’s our first amendment right and we must fight to protect it as fascism continues to hold root in the US.

And yes, my handwriting still is that bad to this day.

Billionaires have more wealth than ever before. This extreme transfer of wealth to the top 1% has made all of our lives harder and we are worse off.

To protect their wealth, they spend loads of money try to convince us that the most marginalized are responsible for our woes.

These are lies!

No @asmrickzbur.bsky.social, rejecting money from Zionist Pro-Israel groups/donors like AIPAC is NOT antisemitic, it's also the moral thing to do.

For 2 straight years, we witnessed Israel committ a genocide. No candidate should align themselves with folks who support Israel's actions.

We have to decouple private equity from housing. Building more means nothing if they buy up the buildings and keep them empty to just to artificially inflate the prices.
Real estate investors bought one-third of all single-family residential homes sold in the second quarter of 2025.

When we've seen extreme anti-trans rhetoric coming from our elected leaders, it's no wonder this number has dropped.

This isn't because "woke is dead" or whatever stupid thing the Right is claiming, it's because trans kids are terrified of coming out given the political climate.

Well this sounds like it would’ve been freaking awesome. Django Unchained Assassin’s Creed? What an inspired idea that sadly was cancelled because we have to listen to morons and their tender fee-fees.
SCOOP: Last year, Ubisoft cancelled an Assassin's Creed game set during Reconstruction. Was to feature a Black Assassin who, among other things, fought the rise of the Klan

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

I'm Colin and I'm running for CA Assembly. I am a 9th gen Californian. I have seen this state engage in decades of austerity that has destroyed the quality of life for working families. It has made it impossible to live here. I am running to change that.

Your power bill going up isn't because of more use in your household, it's because of the Billionaire Tech Oligarchs!

They are using the American public to subsidize the power costs of their MASSIVE AI data centers.

Absolutely disgusting. Before we even found out who killed Charlie Kirk, it was so obvious conservatives wanted to target trans people.

I can't express this enough. Villifying trans people won't lower your rent. It won't make it easier to buy a home. It won't lower the cost of groceries.
The FBI is preparing to label transgender people as “violent extremists” in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s murder:

This is HIGHLY disappointing and dangerous.

@governor.ca.gov must VETO @asmrickzbur.bsky.social's
AB 715. This bill will censor pro-Palestine voices under the guise of curbing antisemitism. Anti-Zionism is not antisemitism. This bill will make Jewish students less safe!
“Antisemitism is rising at alarming levels, and California schools are not immune. This bill is about affirming safe and supportive learning environments .... the classroom must be a welcoming environment that contributes to the child’s academic well-being.” #AB715

White supremacy has been growing for decades to the point where people don't feel the need to hide it.

Charlie Kirk was a white supremacist.
Elon Musk is a white supremacist.
Nick Fuentes is a white supremacist.
and many more...

There is no room for such vile hatred in CA.

Racism, homophobia, transphobia, and all other forms of hateful bigotry aren’t “political opinions.”

Calling for violence towards marginalized groups isn’t fostering healthy dialogues.

There is no need to white wash the legacy of a hateful person.

Israel is committing a genocide, & the U.S. is paying for it with our tax dollars.

For 2 years, we have witnessed a livestreamed genocide. Innocent people are being murdered in horrendous ways, & our politicians don't seem interested in ending this.

This is a stain on humanity.

California MUST build more housing to have a chance at tackling the housing crisis. However, more housing means nothing if billionaires and private equity firms buy these new units and keep them empty. This is all to drive up the real estate market.

Antisemitism has been on the rise in California. No question about that.

However, my opponent's bill #AB715 equates antisemitism with antizionism. It is extremely dangerous to say the two are the same. This will only further antisemitism in this state and make Jewish students even LESS SAFE.
TY David for sharing why #AB715, which I proudly coauthor, matters:

“We are stronger when we fight hate together, and sometimes targeted solutions are necessary…. To say antisemitism alone doesn’t warrant action is to say Jews uniquely don’t deserve protection.”
