Leading on Common Sense AI Safety
You may have heard that Congress is debating President Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” (seriously, that is the official name of the bill), which recently passed out of the House of Representatives by only one vote. A lot of attention has rightly been paid to how this bill will kick millions of Americans off of Medicaid and add trillions of dollars to our national debt. Not good.
December 2024 Newsletter
I’ve had the pleasure of spending the last few months attending events and connecting with constituents all across the district. You’ve shared with me what you are excited about, what you are anxious about, and what you think my colleagues and I should be focused on going into the new year. There were areas of agreement (bring down the cost of living), and areas of disagreement (do / don’t build more housing and create more jobs). I am sincerely grateful for your honesty and your feedback as I begin planning for the upcoming legislative session.
Free College at West Valley-Mission Community College District and Sixteen Other Bills Signed into Law
On Sunday night I got a call from Governor Newsom’s staff letting me know the Governor signed my last two bills on his desk, bringing me to a perfect 17 for 17 bills signed this year. The next day my staff told me, to my surprise, that this is the fifth year in a row with no Gubernatorial vetoes. My strong record with the Governor is a reflection of my focus on commonsense policy proposals and robust stakeholder engagement to ensure the best possible results for my constituents and all Californians.
Summer Updates & 17 Bills Sent to the Governor
I am excited to let you know that seventeen of my bills passed out of the Legislature this year and are on the Governor’s desk awaiting his signature, including efforts to crack down on retail theft, defend our democracy from deceptive deepfakes, support student parents who are trying to get a higher education, and prevent AI-generated child sexual abuse material.

Welcome.
I hope you had a fun, festive, and safe 4th of July holiday and weekend.
I want to update you on the remarkable progress we’ve made on legislation and initiatives to improve our communities and all of California. This spring I passed 24 bills out of the Assembly and on to the Senate. Many of these bills were brought to me by community members who either proposed a specific bill idea or came to me with a problem that they wanted me to solve. Learn more about these bills below.

I am excited to share a first look at the bills I've introduced this year.
Many of this year’s bills were brought to me by you, my constituents. You shared your ideas about how to solve a problem you saw in the community, and together we developed legislation that will improve the lives of all Californians.
Fall 2023 Newsletter
Fall 2023 Newsletter
Fall is a special time of year in the 23rd Assembly District — from delighting in the changes in the foliage to crowning the world’s largest pumpkin in Half Moon Bay. One reason why fall is so special for me is the conclusion of the legislative year in Sacramento and the chance to spend much more time in the district.
Summer 2023 Newsletter
Summer 2023 Newsletter
Welcome.
While everyone is enjoying the nicer summer weather, backyard barbeques, and hopefully a trip or two out of town, I wanted to send you an update on my work for our community. The Legislature is currently on our summer recess, but I'm proud to report that before we left Sacramento all of my bills passed out of the policy committees in the Senate, even in the face of opposition from powerful special interests like the gun lobby and big business.
