Fighting for equity, justice and healing for all children, youth and families through policy, community organizing and restorative justice. Views are my own.
Tidying up children's rooms, putting toys away. The buzz of machinery, tasks that never cease—maintaining order and discipline across the workshop floor.

Talk about bittersweet. This year was my last in #caleg
But so proud Team Skinner was able to deliver 15 bills in 2024 to Gov. @GavinNewsom - including two he already signed.
Here are my #Caleg 13 bills now headed to @CAgovernor 's desk:
Enjoyed touring new ADUs on multifamily properties in my state Senate district. My #caleg#SB1211 will open the door for more accessory dwelling units, also known as second units or backyard cottages, on properties with multifamily housing in CA.

Excellent! The CA Senate today OK'd my #caleg#SB976 - Protecting Our Kids from Social Media Addiction - on a bipartisan vote of 35-2. Under SB 976, online platforms would be barred from sending an addictive social media feed to a minor without consent.
Next up, the Assembly.
Yes!! The CA Assembly today approved #caleg#SB233, an urgency bill by me & @AsmAguiarCurry & sponsored by @CAgovernor & @CaWomensCaucus. SB 233 is in response to Ariz's draconian anti-abortion law & allows Ariz. doctors to temporarily perform abortions in CA. Next up: Senate.
Thank you for your leadership to #EndHungerNow! 🙏
Among so many landmark accomplishments, you led the way for California to be the first state to achieve #SchoolMealsForAll - with states across the country joining us! 🎉

My sister-in-service @SummerForPA's resounding victory tonight sends a clear message to AIPAC and far-right billionaires like Jeff Yass that our seats cannot be bought.
From PA-12 to MO-01, our constituents see through the charade, and they’re ready to do what it takes to win.
