Congratulations, Senator Limón!

Another perk of the job: You now appear in @calbudgetcenter.org's #CABudget 101 training materials.

We're looking forward to highlighting your new leadership role in our upcoming state budget process presentations to groups across our great state. #CALeg

Naturally, Spotify is trying to get me to resubscribe. They mention "perks," but don't say anything about dumping Trump's ICE propaganda ads. No thanks.

In California, Medi-Cal (our state's #Medicaid program) receives nearly two-thirds of all federal funds that flow through the state budget. With deep federal funding cuts, state policymakers would face incredibly tough decisions on how to address funding gaps while preserving critical services.

With Republicans eyeing #Medicaid for major funding cuts in early 2025, it's worth remembering that federal funding makes up over 60% (around $100 billion) of total annual support for California's Medi-Cal program. Federal cuts would be devastating for Californians. #CABudget #CALeg

With the incoming Trump administration preparing to push through deep cuts to #Medicaid, it's worth remembering that California's Medi-Cal program receives nearly 2/3 of all federal funds that flow through the #CABudget. Cuts would have devastating consequences for Californians. #HealthPolicy

Anyone know if this Gavin Newsom Bluesky page is legit? There have only been two posts (both in 2023), even as other folks are rushing in and getting established over here. I've noticed that he's still very active on X (Twitter), though.
