Making the South Bay and California proud!

On this #WomensEqualityDay, Rolling Hills Estates unveiled a bronze plaque commemorating the anniversary of the ratification of the 19th Amendment to the US Constitution, providing women the right to vote.

Great program highlighting the history of Palos Verdes women leaders.

Thank you RHE Mayor Britt Huff and the entire City Council for the great event!

Excited to kick-off the El Segundo Art Walk! Creative businesses throughout Downtown El Segundo and Smoky Hollow transform their spaces to allow Los Angeles-based artists to showcase their work.

The El Segundo Art Walk is an independently organized by the community as a self-guided art event.

This morning I held a Palos Verdes Peninsula Community Town Hall at the Peninsula Center Library.

Great discussion on disaster preparedness, with climate change bringing extreme weather conditions like a hurricane watch, wildfires, and landslides. I delivered $1.5 million in state funding for a Palos Verdes wildfire early detection system.

We also discussed the importance of K-12 education in PV. I am currently the Chair of the Assembly Education Committee, and I believe in the importance of education. We discussed the importance of school bonds to improve school infrastructure. Last year I delivered $500k in state funds to upgrade the dilapidated Palos Verdes high school bathrooms.  

We also discussed housing and homelessness, local control, public safety, including retail theft.

Together with County of Los Angeles County Supervisor Janice Hahn, I attended an operation this morning with the LA County Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) to remove household hazardous waste and personal items at the landslide area in Palos Verdes in preparation for Hurricane Hilary.

Several weeks ago, due to a landslide, several houses were red-tagged. These residents were notified and submitted their item retrieval wish list.

I continue to work with representatives from Los Angeles County to help residents with this tragedy.

Thank you to our great Summer 2023 interns, Reina Jo, Meghna Nair, Sarah Wang, and Ava Brunner. They worked hard for our office this summer and we are so proud of their efforts.

This Fall, Reina will be a senior at Chadwick High School, Meghna a sophomore at UCLA, Sarah a freshman at American University in Washington, DC, and Ava a senior at Mira Costa High School.

Good luck to all!  We will miss you!

Breakfast with Torrance Councilwoman Bridget Lewis at The Pan in Torrance! We discussed public safety, homelessness, and the Metro light rail. Contact the Torrance Mayor and City Council to support the Metro C Line extension to Torrance to cut down on traffic and boost the South Bay economy!

Toured South Bay Family Health Care, a nonprofit community health clinic in North Redondo Beach, during National Health Center Week.

For over 50 years they have provided health and dental care to low income communities in the South Bay, mostly MediCal or uninsured patients.

I support healthcare for all!

Great job Los Angeles Unified School District Superintendent Alberto Carvalho for your new school year address at the Disney Concert Hall today. California's largest school district needs your whole child, whole community vision and energetic leadership.
