54 years ago, Title IX opened doors that had long been closed.โจ
Its impact extends far beyond sportsโhelping ensure equal access to educational opportunities, stronger protections against discrimination, and a fairer future for generations of students.โจ
As Title IX faces renewed challenges, California remains committed to its core promise: that all women and girls have the opportunity to learn, compete, and thrive.โจ

With the help of the GI Bill, he earned a college education and went on to become a professorโshowing me that hard work, opportunity, and service can change a life.โจโจHappy Fatherโs Day to all the dads and father figures making a difference. ๐

As we celebrate Pride Month, Loving Day is also a powerful reminder that progress is built by ordinary people who stand up for equalityโand that the work of defending the freedom to love and live authentically continues.โจ

California has long been a leader in the fight for LGBTQ+ equality, and Iโm proud to serve alongside my colleagues in the California Legislative LGBTQ Caucus () as we continue that work.
Pride is a celebration of how far weโve comeโbut also a reminder that our work is not finished. As attacks on LGBTQ+ people continue across the country, California will remain a place where everyone can live openly, authentically, and with dignity.

Proud to share that my bill โ the Right to Human Customer Service Act โ passed the Assembly and is headed to the Senate.
Technology should make our lives easier, not trap consumers in endless phone trees, AI chat loops, and hours-long hold times.
This bill establishes a simple consumer protection: the right to reach a real person when you need help, and the right to know when youโre interacting with AI instead of a human.
Thank you to District 9 for your partnership.
