I may be serving from #SanDiego, but I couldn't miss my opportunity as #ActingGovernor to pay respects to @BacteriaBear! While I'm sure the time in the box was un-bear-able, I look forward to joining the Bear & the #CALeg in the #SwingSpace beary soon. 🐻
It's the end of an era. Today, we paws 🐾 and reflect on the nearly seven decades we spent in the Capitol Annex.
The Governor's Office is temporarily moving to a new, green building and the bear is going with us. 🐻
I’ve left my mark. Headed for a short hibernation but @GavinNewsom whispered to me before I left that I would be back! (He even did it in the @Schwarzenegger voice).
It’s a beary sad day. While @BacteriaBear may have survived through the height of COVID, tough budget years, and three Governors, even solid gold 800lb bears need to hibernate #caleg

I take no pleasure in reporting this, but another little-known provision in California's recall rules is that if John Cox wins, the bear becomes lieutenant governor.
