At the @CalSheriff’s Annual Convention discussing our shared priorities of advancing public safety and protecting our communities.   Together, we’ve dismantled organized retail crime rings, taken down fentanyl dealers, shut down human trafficking operations, and so much more.   I continue to be inspired by what’s possible when law enforcement agencies work together to build trust and bring results.

When someone entrusted with maintaining fairness in a card room instead stacks the decks for themselves, they must be held accountable. This case is an excellent example of good investigative work and a timely arrest.

What do Levi’s, Hanes, and Chewy have in common? California Attorney General Rob Bonta just revealed evidence alleging that Amazon used its power to pressure them, and countless other brands, to inflate prices of listings on rival online marketplaces as part of wide-ranging price-fixing scheme. Watch this before you shop on Amazon.

CA has achieved something genuinely historic. In recent years, CA became safer from gun violence than any other time on record. This progress was not an accident. It was the result of a sustained commitment to gun violence prevention policies and investments. We cannot lose momentum now.

California Attorney General Rob Bonta on Tuesday highlighted what he called historic progress in the state's fight against gun violence. According to Bonta, in 2024, the state saw the lowest numbers of firearm-related deaths since 1968. That also drove the state's overall homicide rate to its lowest level on record in CDC data, Bonta's office said. abc7news.com/18935111/

ICYMI: My office announcing hospice fraud arrests in 2022—long before Trump was elected and Oz decided to use it to attack California. We’ve said it once, and we’ll say it again. This isn’t a political game for us. We’ve been on the case for years, and we’ll continue to do the work. youtube.com/live/zTHKY2qOD…

We’re now accepting proposals for our 2026-2027 Tobacco Grant Program! These grants will empower local agencies with over $28.5 million to push back against unlawful tobacco sales & marketing to our youth. For more information, please visit: oag.ca.gov/tobaccogrants. oag.ca.gov/news/press-rel…

Amazon has been coordinating with vendors and major retailers — including Target, Walmart, Chewy, and Home Depot — to raise prices across the market. This is a widespread scheme spanning years across markets — and it’s illegal. We’re fighting to stop it.

We’re sharing new evidence in our case against Amazon clearly showing the megacorporation is involved in price fixing. It’s clear as day: Amazon is colluding with vendors and other retailers to make your life more unaffordable. We’ll see them in court.

Today at 10: watch live as I unveil new evidence to the public in our Amazon price fixing case. Tune in at oag.ca.gov

Last week, our antitrust team secured three major victories in our ongoing defense of consumers and a competitive economy. Read the Weekly Update to learn more about our Live Nation/Ticketmaster, Nexstar/Tegna, and Amazon cases. I am so proud of the work of this team. They’ve worked relentlessly—and delivered—for American consumers. content.govdelivery.com/accounts/CAOAG…

Bringing the Live Nation / Ticketmaster case to trial meant that the jury—and the public—got to hear for themselves evidence of this megacorporation breaking the law and ripping people off.   This couldn’t have gone better for consumers, and it couldn’t have gone worse for Ticketmaster. @KlasfeldReports @MeidasTouch

#NEWS: We’ve secured a court order halting the merger of Nexstar/Tegna while our case continues — a critical win. This merger is illegal, plain and simple. The federal govt may have thrown in the towel, but we’ll keep fighting for consumers, for workers, for affordability, and for our local news. oag.ca.gov/news/press-rel…

This victory is a key update in our Amazon case and sends a clear message to current and future behemoth corporations: California DOJ will not allow consumers to be cheated. While consumers face a crisis of affordability, there is no room for anticompetitive pricing practices that impede free market competition and raise prices for consumers.

NEWS: A jury today found Live Nation/ Ticketmaster liable for being an illegal monopolist that harmed consumers and the music industry. This is a historic and resounding victory for artists, fans, and the venues that support them.

Today, our team went to court to fight to secure a court order blocking President Trump’s latest efforts to impose new illegal tariffs — taxes that weigh heavily on Americans nationwide.   Amid a crisis of affordability, consumers and businesses need relief, not more costs and chaos.

We’ve secured a 36-year state prison sentence against Eugene Anthony Souza for the sexual abuse of a young family member in Kings County. This individual was found guilty on all charges and received the maximum possible sentence for this horrific crime. Let this conviction stand as a warning; there is no refuge for those who exploit or abuse children.

The California Department of Justice and several other state agencies arrested five people Wednesday in a crackdown on an alleged hospice fraud ring. State Attorney General Rob Bonta said the alleged fraud had cost California $267 million through bogus charges to Medi-Cal. CBS News' @adamyamaguchi spoke with Bonta about the state's efforts to end health care fraud. cbsn.ws/423dfoV

Operation Skip Trace took down a brazen, calculated criminal Medi-Cal fraud scheme that exploited the Medi-Cal system, stole from California, and prevented services and care from going to sick individuals who need it. Let this be a lesson to anyone targeting Medi-Cal and hospice care in California: We are coming for you.
