The Indian Government has cut off internet access and free communication for nearly 30 million people in Punjab as they attempt to arrest one man. These are the tactics of regimes in North Korea and Russia. They have no place in a functioning Democracy.

I took part of the Joint Asm. Insurance & Emergency Management Cmte. Informational Hearing on catastrophe modeling. The California insurance market is facing a crisis. I am committed to working with my colleagues to make sure insurance is available and affordable in CA. #CALeg

#AB800 just passed in the Senate! We’re in the final stretch on this first-of-its-kind law to ensure all CA high school students learn their workplace rights. Too many young workers are exploited. My bill would educate youth on their rights as workers. #CALeg

It's unacceptable that hardworking state employees struggle to support their families while serving our state. We need to pay them a living wage, and ensure their well-being while fostering our communities. I stand with @SEIU1000 members. #RespectProtectPayUs
