Pleased to have introduced SB 967 today. Will waive UC, CSU, & CCC tuition and fees for current and former foster youth who have been in foster care for at least 12 months. Providing a pathway to post-secondary education is key for vulnerable students.
Congratulations to Shannon Major, deputy district director in my Fresno office. She was recognized as "Staffer of the Year" by @Fresno_Chamber President and CEO @nmahle. Keep up the good work!
Student Success is our # 1 goal at CCC and it is evident as the college is a finalist for the prestigious Bellwether Award. Thank you, Senator @TomBerryhill for the congratulatory letter. Read more about this national award at:

In the Berryhill family, we celebrate Christmas. But the 8th Senate district is incredibly diverse, with many families celebrating many traditions.
So from my family to yours: Merry Christmas, happy holidays and have a happy and safe New Year!
We have so many things to be grateful for and November always helps me to remember that.
I hope everyone has a happy holiday, filled with friends, family and food. Happy Thanksgiving!
