Participated in Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority's Greater Los Angeles Homeless Count last night in San Pedro. I was joined by my staff members Erick Ponce-Furlos and Becky Cheng.
The purpose of the count is to determine the number of unhoused in Los Angeles County, and specifically the South Bay, to ultimately deliver resources and services where they are needed the most.
I participated in a vigil today along with other members of the API Legislative Caucus for the Monterey Park shooting at the Capitol in Sacramento.
Our hearts go out to the families affected by this tragedy. It's especially hard during this time, as families are meant to be celebrating not grieving during the Lunar New Year.
We are all sick and tired of gun violence in America. I will continue to strongly support common sense gun control. #lunarnewyear2023

I recently toured the local plant of Air Products, which focuses on, in part, world-scale carbon-free hydrogen projects supporting global transportation and the energy transition. Hydrogen is a green energy that will help to reduce greenhouse emissions and keep our environment safe. Thanks to Air Products for the tour and your work with hydrogen energy.

On this #VeteransDay, honoring all veterans who have served our country. US Air Force Colonel Mia Walsh is Base Commander of the Los Angeles Air Force Base, Space Force Delta 3, in El Segundo.
She gave a great keynote speech at the Aerospace Corporation in El Segundo talking about how she is proud to be from the Big Island of Hawaii and that she was inspired to serve her country by another Big Island native, astronaut Ellison Onizuka.
I presented a $1.5 million state budget check to the mayors of the four cities on the Hill today for a new wildfire detection camera system. The system will be used to identify, evaluate and warn of wildfire activity within a 15-mile radius. Virtually the entire Peninsula is located within a Cal Fire-designated Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zone. As a result, more protection is needed for wildfires.
The state budget allocation will help ensure availability of long-term funding for the system, which will cost $700,000 for the first five years of operation. Camera installation will begin in the coming weeks at four locations in the City of Rancho Palos Verdes that will provide coverage of all four Peninsula cities.
Thank you to Dave Bradley, Mayor of Rancho Palos Verdes, Victoria Lozzi, Mayor of Palos Verdes Estates, Pat Wilson, Mayor of City of Rolling Hills and Frank Zerunyan, Mayor of Rolling Hills Estates for your advocacy on this issue and your attendance today at the event.
