Friends, constituents, Californians:

As of today, we will no longer be using this account.

My official legislative account has moved to Bluesky. You can also still find me on Instagram and Facebook. Let's stay connected.

Today is #EqualPayDay.

Women have to work nearly 15 months to earn what a man earns in 12.

The gap is even wider for women of color.

Equal pay isn’t a luxury — it’s a matter of fairness, equity, and economic justice. #CloseTheGap

A heartfelt thank you to @JPACcalifornia for hosting last night’s reception for Jewish leaders and allies in partnership with @JFedLA & Jewish Family Services Los Angeles. Great to connect with everyone, and reaffirm our commitment to fighting antisemitism. #NeverAgain

[Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur @AsmRickZbur]

Wishing a joyful Nowruz to all who celebrate! As we welcome the first day of spring and the Persian New Year, may this season of renewal bring you health, prosperity, and new beginnings. Nowruz Mobarak! #Nowruz #SpringRenewal #NewBeginnings

Proud to share that #AB648, my bill to make it easier for CA Community College Districts to build student & staff housing, passed the Assembly Higher Education Committee today. TY sponsors @SMC_edu @AbundantHousing @StudentHOMESCo & @laccd!

The vandalism of BAPS Hindu Temple in Chino Hills was a heinous hate crime, & I am grateful @sbcountysheriff is investigating. It’s never acceptable to attack a place of worship. We should all stand with the Hindu community & condemn this attack. @bapslosangeles @BAPS_PubAffairs

AB 1333 was never intended to limit a crime victim’s right to defend yourself, your family, or home. The goal is to prevent wannabe vigilantes like Kyle Rittenhouse from provoking violence & claiming self defense after the fact. We will amend the bill to make this crystal clear.

[Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur @AsmRickZbur]

Proud to introduce #AB1138 & #SB630 with @BenAllenCA & @isaacgbryan. The Hollywood Film & TV Tax Credit isn’t a giveaway—it’s an investment. Without action we risk hundreds of thousands of local jobs & our status as the global entertainment leader. #KeepHollywoodinCA

[Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur @AsmRickZbur]

Today, I introduced #AB891, a bill to launch a quick-build bike lane & intersection pilot program—helping Caltrans make our highways safer, faster. Traffic fatalities & injuries are rising, and we can’t afford to wait years for safety improvements. TY to sponsor @CalBike!

[Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur @AsmRickZbur]

My bill #AB715 protects attorneys representing patients, providers & others accessing essential health care—like abortion & gender-affirming care. We should protect attorneys who defend fundamental rights from out of state attack. TY to sponsors @PPActionCA @eqca @WLALAnews!

[Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur @AsmRickZbur]

Proud to introduce #AB648 to facilitate and expedite student and staff housing at California Community Colleges. No student should have to worry about whether they have a place to sleep. TY to sponsor @SMC_edu.

[Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur @AsmRickZbur]

Today, we celebrate the 10th anniversary of the #InternationalDayofWomenandGirlsinScience. Gender equality in STEM is key to a better future for all, yet women and girls still face systemic barriers. Let’s inspire, support, and break stereotypes. #IDWGS #WomenInStem

[Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur @AsmRickZbur]

Today, I rose to honor the memory of my beloved mother, Erlinda Chavez Zbur, who passed away peacefully in her sleep, just shy of her 101st birthday.

Our home feels empty without her, but I’m comforted knowing she’s reunited with my dad & sister, having fun & watching over us.

This National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, let's recommit ourselves to ending stigma, pushing for equitable access to care, expanding HIV education, and fighting to protect and expand HIV/AIDS resources in all communities. #NBHAAD

[Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur @AsmRickZbur]

Heart disease continues to be the leading cause of death for women in the United States. Wear red today to raise awareness for women’s heart health. #WearRedDay

[Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur @AsmRickZbur]

This #WorldCancerDay, I’m grateful for the early detection & treatment that made a difference in my journey.

Thinking of those fighting & those we’ve lost. Keep pushing for cancer awareness/research & the importance of early detection. Get screened, stay healthy. #UnitedByUnique

[Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur @AsmRickZbur]

The current administration has forced our hands.

Californians deserve protection from the chaos coming out of this White House.

I was proud to vote YES today along with my Democratic colleagues to protect the legal rights of all Californians and the vital programs they rely on.

[Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur @AsmRickZbur]

Had a great time in Glendale this morning at the community swearing-in for my new Assembly colleague, @AsmNickSchultz!

Excited to welcome an amazing leader to our Caucus and to working together to deliver for all Californians.

[Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur @AsmRickZbur]

Today we commemorate #NationalFreedomDay and the signing of the 13th Amendment, and we celebrate the beginning of #BlackHistoryMonth.

Today, and everyday, let’s renew our commitment to justice and equality for all.

[Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur @AsmRickZbur]

Sending warm wishes to all Angelenos celebrating the Lunar New Year!

The Year of the Snake emphasizes transformation and renewal. May this year bring you happiness, health, and prosperity. #LunarNewYear
