California is the fourth-largest economy, the most diverse state in the most diverse democracy, and a leader in technology and innovation BECAUSE of immigrants.
Immigrants are what make our state great and they are what make this country great.

The court just confirmed what we all know: The military belongs on the battlefield, not on our city streets.
End the unnecessary militarization of Los Angeles now, Donald Trump.
Refusing to do so will only confirm your authoritarian tendencies.

The federal government is taking over the California National Guard and deploying 2,000 soldiers in Los Angeles — not because there is a shortage of law enforcement, but because they want a spectacle.

Tariffs are nothing more than a tax on hardworking Americans — driving up the cost of groceries, cars and essential goods.
California stands for the businesses and exporters that power our economy. There’s no economic growth in America without our success.

President-elect Trump’s planned tariffs would have a profoundly negative impact on working families in California and across the country.
Make no mistake: this would be a tax on consumers.
