Senate Budget Committee hearing scheduled for Wednesday, 8/29 at 9:30a.m. ▶️ bit.ly/3ZazZA5 #CABudget #ProtectOurProgress

In a challenging fiscal year, the #CABudget avoids ongoing cuts to the critical programs that help support vulnerable populations and ensure that Californians’ basic needs are met. #ProtectOurProgress

California’s commitment to climate resilience is unwavering. Our #CABudget invests in #CleanEnergy and key programs that protect our state’s diverse environments. We will continue to lead the nation on #ClimatePolicy! #ProtectOurProgress

ICYMI: ‘Historic’ California child care deal slashes ‘family fees,’ promises rate overhaul. Here’s what it means for families and providers sandiegouniontribune.com/news/education…

#OTD in 1965, #Medicare & #Medicaid were signed into law, making healthcare more widely available. In CA, we’re continuing that work. The #CABudget expands #MediCal eligibility, increases provider rates, & also reduces copays & removes deductibles for many people on @CoveredCA

Folks, This year #CALeg @GavinNewsom and @CaWomensCaucus - of which I am proud to chair - made funding for child care a top priority in the state budget. Learn more about our nation-leading efforts: sd09.senate.ca.gov/e-alert/meetin…

Childcare continues to be one of the highest costs facing California families with children. This year’s #CABudget subsidizes childcare for families struggling to make ends meet, which helps parents get back into the workforce and supports childcare providers. #ProtectOurProgress

The #CABudget makes higher education more accessible, including funding debt-free public higher education for foster youth, who face more obstacles to going to college. These programs will help more CA students afford higher education & maintain CA’s economic competitiveness.

ICYMI: The #CABudget has been signed! Along with the 2023 Infrastructure package, it will help California reach our goals on on #ClimateChange, infrastructure, & more, and avoids harmful cuts to the services Californians depend on, like education & healthcare. #ProtectOurProgress

Proud to stand today w/ @GavinNewsom @toniatkins @RobertRivas_CA & @BauerKahan & #CALeg members for the signing of CA's 2023-24 State Budget Act & infrastructure package. This year's budget protects the progress we've made in recent years to build a more equitable economy for all

This Infrastructure package and final #CABudget will #ProtectOurProgress and build the future California needs. From avoiding harmful cuts to prioritizing our environment and workforce equity, this legislation protects our state and all who call California home.

It protects our safety net for struggling Californians and supports our public transportation systems. 🚍 #CABudget #ProtectOurProgress
