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

Nicotine is toxic even without the smoke!
On Friday, after our successful Senior Scam Stopper, my office celebrated Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month by participating in a senior self-defense class.
Thank you to Seniors Fight Back, a local non-profit tackling anti-Asian hate, for partnering on such a great event.

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.

Great community turnout to support this iconic South Bay landmark.
Assemblymember Muratsuchi took part in the City of Gardena's Cinco de Mayo Parade.
Last week I attended the Beach Cities Health's (BCHD) kick-off of May's Mental Health Awareness Month with the opening ceremony for Allcove Beach Cities. Allcove Beach Cities is a one-stop shop for young people aged 12-25 in the South Bay to access mental health services, substance abuse prevention tools, peer and family support, and help with education and employment.
I provided a letter of support that helped the program to be awarded a $2 million, 4-year grant through the California Mental Health Services Oversight and Accountability Commission. BCHD was selected as one of 5 new pilot sites to deliver this program throughout California.
Proud to have such a great program for our young people in the South Bay!
