CA has made great strides in reducing gun violence, but there is more work to be done. June is Gun Violence Awareness Month, and I encourage everyone to stand in solidarity with the victims, families, and communities that have been impacted. Together, we can end gun violence.

Huge congrats to my friend, @Scott_Wiener. No one works harder - San Francisco is lucky to have you! So proud to support you. Onward to November 💪❤️🔥

Together these bills will help keep heavy traffic off residential streets, streamline safety improvement projects for bicyclists & pedestrians, and improve transit access. Our streets should be safe & accessible for everyone–whether you walk, roll, bike, drive, or take transit.

[Buffy Wicks @BuffyWicks]

It’s no secret that I’m laser-focused on housing policy. But I’ve also gotten quite active in trying to improve pedestrian/bike safety. Sidewalks, bike lanes, and transit stops get us from point a to point b, and we have to make sure they are safe and accessible.

3. AB 2168 modifies the Active Transportation Program (the state’s primary funding source for bike/ped infrastructure) to include transit access as priority. Other changes include measures to encourage timely use of awarded dollars, so these projects are completed without delay.

Curious about how the leading Democratic candidates for governor think about housing affordability in California? Here's what they had to say backstage at last month's housing forum. https://t.co/ponRL87jWH

Today marked a huge milestone in the legislative process, and I'm happy to share that all my bills are now headed to the Senate!

@SeanTrende Beautiful ❤️

“When working families cannot afford to buy, they leave.” That's why I'm taking on construction defect liability this year. AB 1903 will speed up repairs & bring down the cost to build condos so we can unlock more homeownership opportunities in California.

@mnolangray If you have any big spenders or friends who want to do a group gift, ask for a Snoo. Will add hours of sleep to your life!

Housing has been the defining issue of my time – both in the legislature and as a Californian trying to raise a family.

That’s why I was so proud to open Friday’s Gubernatorial Candidates Housing Forum, hosted by @ezraklein and the @nytimes

[Addisu Demissie @ASDem]

Listening to @BuffyWicks @ezraklein CA housing gubernatorial forum. More informative (and impressive) than anything to date. This should be the future, including presidential debates in 2028. I would way rather listen to this than 60 second rapid fire joint press conferences.
