Clips of Senator Alvarado-Gil’s remarks on the floor yesterday in opposition of the five Parole Board commissioners who have repeatedly chosen to parole some of the worst offenders in the state.
Senator Alvarado-Gil: “These commissioners have repeatedly chosen leniency over public safety… No family should live in fear that a serial child molester could be released into their neighborhood.”
Referring to s*xually violent predator Roberto Detrinidad , Sen. Alvarado-Gil noted of his early release after conviction of a home invasion s*x crime, “and you wonder why there are so many law abiding gun owners in California!”
In a plea to her Democratic colleagues, Alvarado-Gil encouraged a no vote on the confirmations stating, “The law does not require you to vote on party lines independent of the protection of your constituents.”

🚨Senator Marie Alvarado-Gil Demands Senate Reject Parole Board Commissioners Who Endanger California Families
Today on the Senate floor, Senator Alvarado-Gil spoke against the approval of the five Parole Board commissioners who have repeatedly chosen to parole some of the worst offenders in the state.
In just the past year, panels including these nominees released:
David Funston: kidnapped & s*xually assaulted multiple children as young as 3 & 4. Still admitting pedophilic fantasies in 2021. Called “the monster parents fear the most.”
Gregory Vogelsang: nearly 30 counts of kidnapping & s*x crimes against kids ages 5-11. Sentenced to 355 years to life.
Roberto Detrinidad: stranger r**e of an unconscious woman in her own bed. Out after less than 9 years.
Senator Alvarado-Gil: “These commissioners have repeatedly chosen leniency over public safety… No family should live in fear that a serial child molester could be released into their neighborhood.”
"The people in my district are strong supporters of the 2nd amendment… because of appointments like these… where we give the power and authority to non-elected officials to make decisions about the welfare and safety of our children and families by releasing s*xually violent predators back in to the community; you better believe that I will vote over and over and over again to protect 2nd amendment rights for my constituents.”

🚨Rural California Under Siege: Senator Alvarado-Gil’s Fierce Fight for Gas Tax Suspension Blocked Again by Democrats
Once again, Senate Democrats have turned their backs on struggling rural families by rejecting yet another attempt to suspend the state gas tax, leaving Californians to suffer under the highest fuel prices in the nation.
“Enough is enough,” declared Senator Alvarado-Gil. “Rural families are being economically strangled by Sacramento Democrats who refuse to provide even basic relief. Parents are forced to cancel family outings, mothers and fathers are choosing between filling their tank to get to work and putting food on the table. Seniors are skipping critical doctor appointments. This is not living; this is surviving under the weight of Sacramento’s arrogance and indifference.”

My team was pleased to attend the Grand Opening of Caked, a joyful, community-centered bakery serving Placerville where they presented a Senate Certificate of Recognition.
Caked provides delicious custom cakes, cookies, cake pops, and ice cream made with care, creativity, and a whole lot of love. From birthdays and weddings to everyday treats, everything is thoughtfully designed to bring people together and turn ordinary days into something worth celebrating.
Caked began with a bold “I CAN DO THAT!” moment. At just 15, owner Mandy took her first cake decorating class and discovered a true passion. What started as a hobby grew through word-of-mouth (including her first wedding cake for a family friend) while she balanced a full-time career.
Come meet Mandy, enjoy fresh treats, and help us cut the ribbon on this inspiring local success story!
