We cannot allow this violence to become normalized, we need common-sense gun laws to protect our communities and confront hate.

I have been briefed on this fire in Weed, California. @caloes.bsky.social is supporting local response operations and evacuation efforts.

Please follow the guidance of local first responders.

Further proof that Donald Trump lives in an alternate universe.

While the Trump Administration uselessly funnels hundreds of millions of dollars into a deadly industry, California will continue to lead the nation with cheaper, more effective renewable energy sources.

I called on Trump months ago to work with California on expanding our successful $750M California Film & TV Tax Credit into a national program.

Instead of just waving his arms and yelling “TARIFFS,” how about we do something that will actually work?

Today, I'm signing legislation to install common-sense guardrails ensuring the safety and further development of cutting-edge AI systems.

California is proving that it's possible to both protect people and ensure our state's growing industries continue to shape the future.

We're investing $5 million into paid service roles through the @calvolunteers.bsky.social Men's Service Challenge.

Alongside thousands of California Service Corps roles, these peer mentor programs aim to tackle rising rates of suicide, disconnection, and joblessness among young men and boys.

Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth’s power trip continues to stretch out of hand, inciting fear and chaos in cities that don't need military presence to occupy their streets.

When does enough become enough? End this nonsense now.
Yesterday, we filed a lawsuit challenging Trump’s illegal federalization of the National Guard.

This morning, we filed a motion for a temporary restraining order to block the federalization from going into effect.

We’ll keep sharing updates as things progress.

In areas of California where wildlife overlaps with development, even a small fire can become a threat to the broader community.
A recent structure fire in Weed, California, quickly prompted evacuation orders. CAL FIRE was one of several agencies working together to halt the fire’s spread.

Donald Trump and his lapdog GOP Congress are so against lowering health care costs that they're instead shutting down the federal government.

Food assistance thrown into jeopardy. Troops going without pay. Essential services shuttered.

This is how MAGA treats our country.

I just signed an executive order calling on state agencies and departments to expedite our response to the ongoing economic impacts of the climate crisis.

We’re taking a whole-of-government response to protect Californians, boost insurance coverage options, and reduce costs.

I just signed legislation allowing private sector workers to petition the state Public Employee Relations Board if the National Labor Relations Board fails to uphold their rights.

We’ll keep fighting for the workers that keep our state running and our economy booming.

We have a lawless president in the White House — and California refuses to back down.
Trump: "San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles...That's a war too. It's a war from within...I told Pete, we should use some of these cities as training grounds for our military — national guard, but military. We're going into Chicago very soon."

The GOP SHUTDOWN of the federal government will:
🚨Skyrocket costs
🚨Screw up essential services
🚨Abandon disaster victims
🚨Make everyday life even WORSE for Americans

This is America after nine months of Donald Trump.

America is in the midst of a self-inflicted economic damage, federal government shutdown, and daily humiliation on the global stage.

All within just nine months of Donald Trump returning to the White House with full GOP control of Washington.

Republicans refused to keep health care subsidies for millions of Americans and then shut down the government.

The GOP chose chaos over coverage. This shutdown is entirely on them.

Trump’s shutdown is putting our communities at risk.

Wildfire preparedness and disaster recovery are on hold because of his reckless and dangerous tactics.

Republicans must end it now.

From the fishermen and vineyard pioneers of Northern California, to the Central Valley ranchers, to the SoCal trailblazers in entertainment, food, and more — the Golden State celebrates the contributions of Italian Americans to our story.

In Trump’s America, energy policy is set by the highest bidder, economics and common-sense be damned.

We’ll keep chasing an all-of-the above clean energy strategy to power our future and clean our air — no matter what politicians in DC try to dictate.
