I attended the Continuing Education for Nikkei Widows' (CENW) monthly meeting at the Gardena—Torrance Baptist Church. I spoke with local residents about issues affecting Japanese-American seniors in the community, from housing to inflation.
Yesterday, I spoke at San Pedro's South Shores Community Association meeting. We discussed littering of the streets, public safety, housing and homelessness, and landslides.
Thank you to President Rich Scandaliato for the invitation. Great to see Councilmember Tim McOsker, and LA County Supervisor Janice Hahn.
I attended the City of Rolling Hills Estates' City Celebration this weekend to celebrate its 67th anniversary of incorporation. Thank you to Mayor Schmitz and the City of Rolling Hills Estates for inviting me to the event.
The landslide challenges are now affecting two cities on the peninsula — Rancho Palo Verdes and Rolling Hills. We are working hard to help the peninsula's residents who have been affected. One of my top priorities is to get the California Governor to come down to the South Bay to view the landslide for himself.
On this 9/11, remembering all those who lost their lives on this day 23 years ago, while honoring our first responders and calling for all Americans to overcome our divisions and come together once again.

Recently, I visited Beacon House, a long-term treatment facility in San Pedro designed to help men recover from alcoholism and drug addiction. They serve around 103 men, and about 75% of the staff are program alumni.
They have a culinary program designed to provide training, workforce development, and employment opportunities while feeding the homeless three times a day at more than five shelters surrounding the San Pedro community.
Thank you to Timothy Shin, Director of Operations, Ivan Rizo Patron, Development Director, Archie Hoggan, Executive Director, and Jonathan Higgins, Chief Compliance Officer.
I held my Torrance Community Town Hall on Saturday. I had a great conversation with residents from Torrance, including many teachers who attended. We talked about education, including my AB 247, which is now Prop 2, my AB 1825, the Freedom to Read Act, housing, and Homelessness.
