From a constituent in San Diego, CAI value public education and I am asking state leaders to protect essential school funding. Right now, Governor Newsom’s proposed budget withholds $5.6 billion in school funding guaranteed by Proposition 98; on the local level, this is millions of dollars. This funding is essential to retain and r
From a verified voter in Santa Cruz, CASupport SB 868 - plug in solar panels for consumers
Please support SB 868, which will allow consumers to buy and install plug in solar panels. This could become one of the fastest growing fossil fuel mitigations in history - but only if you keep PG&E out of the consumer purchase and installation process entirely. The more they are involved, the less
From a constituent in North Hollywood, CAPlease renew Propel Initiative & CA Local News Fellowship - fund a free press
In the last few years, the Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, CBS, and potentially soon CNN have been gutted and taken artificially rightward by billionaire oligarchs. There are some fantastic independent outlets like LA Squawk Box/the LA Reporter, LA Taco, and the San Fernando Valley Sun filling t
From a constituent in La Habra, CAOppose AB 1720 and AB 1349
I urge you to oppose these two bills. AB 1720 and AB 1349, two Ticketmaster-backed bills that give Ticketmaster more control while restricting what people can do with tickets they already own. It's a clear double standard - one that benefits Ticketmaster, not consumers.
From a constituent in Los Angeles, CASupport a Statewide Commercial Vacancy Tax
I’m writing to urge you to put real teeth back into Senate Bill 789. As originally introduced, SB 789 would have placed a $5 per square foot annual tax on commercial properties sitting vacant for more than half the year, with the revenue going toward down payment assistance through the California Dr
From a constituent in Menlo Park, CAFine the New York Giants
I want you to push for the Giants to be fined. Whatever the violation — whether it's conduct, compliance, or something else entirely — accountability matters, and right now it's not happening. Letting this slide sends the wrong message to everyone watching. Hold the organization responsible. A fine
From a verified voter in Saratoga, CAVote Yes on SB 868: Legalize Plug-In Solar for California Renters
I’m writing to urge you to Vote YES on SB 868 and get it to the Governor's desk. This bill would legalize plug-in balcony solar panels statewide — no permits, no installers, no months-long wait. The Assembly Committee on Appropriations needs to advance it, and then the full Assembly needs to pass
From a verified voter in San Mateo, CAProtect California Public Colleges From Ideological Takeover
Pass legislation now that prevents any future governor from doing to California's public colleges what Ron DeSantis did to New College of Florida. What happened there should terrify anyone who cares about public higher education: a nationally ranked liberal arts college was gutted in under two years
From a verified voter in Saratoga, CAFund School HVAC Upgrades to Fix Dangerously Hot Classrooms
Today I take pen in hand to write and urge support for funding for school HVAC upgrades and make classroom temperature standards a priority before another school year starts in dangerous heat. The side effects of our hotter planet are plain to see. Last September, classrooms in Fort Collins, Colo
From a constituent in Pasadena, CABan Flock Cameras and Put Surveillance Tech to a Public Vote
Ban Flock Safety cameras statewide and pass legislation requiring any new privacy-invading surveillance technology, including biometric data collection, to be approved by public vote before deployment. The LAPD's use of Flock automated license plate readers has exposed exactly how these systems get
From a constituent in Los Angeles, CAAi regulations

From a verified voter in Glendale, CAThe cost of living in California is unsustainable. Rents are out of control and wages do not keep up. Grocery prices have skyrocketed. Gas prices are ridiculous. Utility prices keep going up. Entertainment goes up. We don't care what's going on in the world, corporations should not be able to keep p
From a constituent in North Hollywood, CAPlease enact the California Voting Rights Act of 2026
With voting rights under attack federally California should lead in the other direction. Please enact SB 1164 and SB 1360.
From a verified voter in Forest Knolls, CAI am deeply concerned about cuts to IHSS. Trump, in his infinite wisdom, (not) has cut the amount that a person can have in savings from $100,000 to $2000. This is insane! Can you imagine how desperate a life you would be living with just $2000 in your savings account? People with disabilities deser
From a verified voter in Forest Knolls, CAI supported Tomales Bay State Park Forest and Wildfire Resilience Project. I know that there is a need to reduce the overgrowth of nonnative brush, etc. however, I am strongly opposed to the use of Roundup (glyphosate) in this sensitive area. The WHO has listed glyphosate as a probable human carcino
From a constituent in Forest Knolls, CANo poisons in our forests!
Here in Marin County we have worked hard to eliminate spraying our roads and our school playgrounds with toxic chemicals. It is horrifying to realize that the Tomales Bay State Park Forest and Wildfire Resilience Project intends to use Round up where our families hike, and near our waterways. It i
From a constituent in San Francisco, CAPlease protect Medi-Cal access in the budget. Do not impose a $2,000 asset limit in Medi-Cal for older adults and people with disabilities. Do not strip asylum seekers from full-scope Medi-Cal. A $2,000 asset limit prevents people from having any savings, putting them one emergency away from financ
From a constituent in El Cerrito, CAProtect us from federal breach of HHS identifiable medical records!
HHS is being pressured to provide our identifiable mesical records. They already have access to our nonidentifiable aggregate records. Protect our identities and that of our children. HIPAA laws exist for a reason. Keep us safe!

From a constituent in North Hollywood, CAPlease enact AB 412, the AI Copyright Transparency Act - expose “AI” companies
The “AI” scraper bots are out of control. They ignore the robots.txt equivalent for LLMs and have made obscene amounts of money for their scam artist creators, while putting real artists out of work (and effectively DDoS-ing their servers). California should force “AI” companies’ hands by passing AB
From a constituent in Hemet, CAREJECT Asset Limits for MediCal recipients!

From a constituent in Pasadena, CAPass a Statewide Vacancy Tax on Corporate Landlords
California needs a statewide vacancy tax on empty residential and commercial properties, and it needs to apply to any landlord that isn't a small, independent owner.

From a verified voter in Santa Cruz, CAVote Yes on SB 1105 to Protect Californians from Federal Overreach

From a verified voter in Sunnyvale, CANo more for-profit prisons, GEOGroup, or for-profit health insurance
Time to remove the profit motive from healthcare and prisons, We are seeing that health insurance is squeezing people for more money and supply ing fewer services by pre-approval requirements. The patient goes untreated at the worst time and the company pockets the cash left from not providing ser

From a verified voter in San Jose, CAIn California, I can opt out of targeted advertising online, but AI is forced on me time and time again.
