NEW: More than $140M are being awarded to nearly 500 local projects to increase roadway safety and save lives.
These infrastructure investments are making our roads safer, strengthening our communities, and will protect Californians for years to come.

California is expanding its water supply by adding 2.9 billion gallons a year through eight major state-funded projects.
We're recycling more water, removing PFAS, upgrading wastewater systems and building new desalination for over one million Californians.
This is how we build drought resilience.

Pete Hegseth needs to resign or be fired. Now. He’s a walking, talking national security embarrassment.
The disastrous and illegal Venezuela strikes - and his refusal to accept responsibility - should be the last straw.

96% of the highest-paid workers in the US have paid sick days.
Just 38% of the lowest-paid workers get them — including the thousands of retail workers working this holiday weekend.
Only in America do we call working people ‘essential’ but deny them paid sick leave.

My bipartisan IRS MATH Act with Senator Bill Cassidy is now law.
Now, if you mess up your taxes, the IRS has to tell you where you made a mistake and how to fix it.
No more spending a fortune on lawyers or hours to find errors.
That means fewer headaches and more money in your pocket.
