Spring is here, and with it comes a new legislative session filled with opportunities to create lasting, meaningful change for our community.

Join me for an important and timely discussion on teen mental health, the impact of technology, and how schools and parents can work together to support students. This interactive event, facilitated by Heidi Hernandez Gatty from the Walnut Creek School Board, will provide expert insights and practical strategies for parents.

Dear Neighbor,

I’m excited to share some news from Sacramento as we have now wrapped up the 2024 legislative session.

Dear Neighbor,

It’s now autumn, which means that this whirlwind of a legislative session has come to a close. Thousands of bills were introduced between both the Assembly and the Senate—my staff and I certainly had our work cut out for us. Each time we analyzed the bills that were brought to the Floor or to one of the committees I sit on, we had one question constantly guiding us: how does this piece of legislation serve our constituents?

 Serving as your Assemblymember is the honor of a lifetime, and championing causes and passing policies that address the top priorities and concerns of Assembly District 16 is not a responsibility I take lightly. The comments, calls, and feedback my staff and I receive is invaluable to the work that we do, and we always appreciate your engagement. 

In this newsletter, you’ll find updates and information on my bill package, my Spring 2024 internship program, an upcoming community event about the adolescent brain and marijuana, and more.

Dear Neighbor,
