Most populated city in North America and there’s very little coverage.

I never imagined the disconnect between news and reality could get this wide.
And I made Don’t Look Up.

The governor's proposed May Revise effectively reverses ten years of investments and gains made across the entire range of human services programs. No program area is spared. We cannot let the state's budget be balanced on the backs of the most vulnerable. #cabudget

CA can close 5 prisons to protect programs that provide emergency child care, foster care and other programs that protect families and children. With over 10,000 empty beds, this can be done safely! #CABudget #CALeg #Prisons #Families

Rather strong inter-model ensemble agreement at the moment regarding the growing possibility of a significant and potentially prolonged heatwave across most of the Western U.S. starting around Jun 5-6 as strong/broad ridge builds. Details TBD. #CAwx #CAfire

Drought in Mexico & C America is off the charts. Extreme in dark red.
This is making a long term water shortage much worse, turning it into an acute emergency. Mexico City is running out of water and some say their Day Zero is only a month away, unless heavy rain comes. 1/

Final environmental review for 38 miles of high-speed rail between Burbank and Palmdale is now released. Could be approved as soon as next month, which would mean all 463 miles between L.A. and San Francisco are environmentally cleared for construction: latimes.com/california/sto…

‼️We just disrupted the Student Loan Servicing Alliance conference and confronted MOHELA CEO Scott Giles for blocking student debt relief and stealing money from borrowers’ accounts. They had nothing to say. Shame. #FireMOHELA

If even pasteurized milk can carry live avian flu virus as looks likely from the latest research, and in the absence so far of airborne human to human transmission, there's this one weird trick that guarantees you don't get infected

THIS IS NOT OK! Despite a population drop of over 30,000 incarcerated people, the #CA State prison budget remains flatlined, untouchable. In the meantime, the Governor proposes cuts to health and human services that are 17 times greater than the cuts to prisons. #CA Budget #CA Leg

Senate Democrats’ farm bill keeps farmers farming, keeps families fed, and keeps rural communities strong.

It’s a stark contrast to the GOP’s partisan hitjob that guts SNAP, the program people rely on to feed their families.

The first phase of the monumental revegetation project in the Klamath River’s reservoir reach is off to a spectacular start. Hand seeded California poppies, Menzies fiddleneck and chick lupine are blooming throughout the 38-mile-long segment of the Klamath.

👏👏👏Thank you Rep. Jim Costa for championing #SNAP our most effective anti-hunger tool that also boosts California's economy! #FarmBill #EndHungerNow

San Diego for Every Child joined End Child Poverty in California last week in Sacramento to urge the California Governor and CA legislatures to deliver a budget that doesn't disproportionately and negatively impact children in low-income households. #HandsOff #CABudget

More than 79,000 households in #OH11 participate in SNAP.

The GOP Farm Bill would make the largest cut to SNAP in decades.

As I said today, this is sowing the seeds of hardship.

#HandsOff ! We're ready to protect kids & families!

California Governor Mike McGuire Speaker Robert Rivas Senator Scott Wiener Asm. Jesse Gabriel please listen to the mood of the people & deliver a FAIR #CABudget .

Today's House #FarmBill markup is troubling, not only because of proposed cuts to SNAP, but also because the rules exacerbating college student food insecurity are left unaddressed. Today, 63 orgs including The Hope Center respond. todaysstudentscoalition.org/wp-content/upl…

My constituents deserve a fair, bipartisan #FarmBill that supports producers of all sizes, builds climate resilience, and protects hungry families.

We have the ability to produce a Farm Bill that supports all Americans.
