For decades, Oxnard residents raised concerns about the Ormond Beach Power Plant & its impact on local air quality.

After 7 months of negotiations, we reached an agreement with the plant’s operator, GenOn, to invest $1.5M in air quality monitoring & public outreach as part of their lease extension.

California & the White House do not share the same values, especially when it comes to feeding our kids.

This SNAP/CalFresh disruption wasn’t unavoidable. The administration has the funds to prevent it.

This is an intentionally manufactured hunger crisis, & American families are paying the price.

This #FilipinoAmericanHistoryMonth, I visited Spoon and Fork to meet chef Joanne Suavillo who shares her Filipina heritage through delicious dishes like lumpia, tapsilog, lechon kawaii, and halo halo.

California: let’s support local Filipino American gems like Spoon and Fork this month & beyond!

In honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, I joined Sen. Susan Rubio — a fearless advocate for survivors — to shine a light on an issue that affects far too many families across CA.

Nearly 1 in 4 women and 1 in 9 men in the U.S. experience domestic violence.

CA’s nurses & health care workers are the backbone of our care system.

I’m proud to stand with #UNACUHCP members this morning on the picket line in Oakland because when they fight for fair pay, safe staffing, & respect on the job — they’re fighting for all of us.

I met with city leaders from LA County’s Gateway Cities to talk about the ICE operations targeting our communities.

These cities — home to vibrant Latino and immigrant families — have faced multiple raids and arrests of hardworking people simply doing their jobs.

Recycling that fuels manufacturing and our future ♻️

Proud to highlight @sarecycling at the Port of LA during #ManufacturingWeek!
