Today I hosted a town hall at Torrance City Hall. Great turnout!

We discussed housing issues, homelessness, local control and that the crime rate in Torrance is down over 20 percent. We also talked about education, including teacher shortages, and the importance of SoCal ROC.

Special thanks to attendees Torrance Councilman Asam Sheikh, Torrance City Councilmember District #3, former Torrance Unified School District President Terry Ragins, and City Manager Aram Chaparyan.

Today I hosted our office's first Dual Enrollment workshop. Lots of interest in this issue, with a large crowd of parents and high school students from around the South Bay in attendance.

Representatives from El Camino College explained how high school students can take community college classes while in high school and earn both high school and college credits…all for free.

Asm. Muratsuchi welcomed students from Riviera Hall Lutheran School on the Assembly Floor.

Standing against Big Tobacco with South Bay constituents to protect our youth and communities!

Tobacco companies are targeting youth and Black and Brown communities with their advertising for vaping and menthol products.

Nicotine is toxic even without the smoke!

UCLA Chancellor Gene Block, former University of California Regent and Rolling Hills Estates Councilwoman Debby Stegura, and others at the State Capitol for UC Day! As a UC Berkeley and UCLA Law alumnus and first generation university graduate, I know that UC changes lives and serves as an engine of our Innovation Economy.

My office hosted a Senior Scam Stopper at the Ken Nakaoka Community Center in the City of Gardena. Thank you to Natalie Watmore at the Contractors State License Board, Jackie Wiley with the CA Department of Financial Protection and Innovation, Armine Sargsyan with the Department of Insurance, and Diana Cavanagh with the US Postal Inspection Service for their great presentations on avoiding scams targeting seniors. Thank you to the city of Gardena for such a great event!

My Assembly Bill 557 led to the creation of CA vs Hate, a statewide hate crime hotline and reporting website to provide support for victims and make our communities safer. Today, I joined leaders around the state, including First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom, to kick off the hotline's launch.

Hate crimes and hate incidents target entire communities, not just individual victims. Unfortunately, most hate crimes and hate incidents are never reported. This new website and hotline, working with community-based organizations, will provide a statewide network to track hate data, assist victims, and make all of our diverse communities safer.
