#PublicHealth experts warn proposed cuts come as Congressional #MediCal reforms could increase reliance on local health departments and county indigent care programs without the infrastructure needed to provide care.

Kicked off the year with a bang—my first press conference was a huge success! Helped @ProsperCal announce their legislative package with @AsmMarkGonzalez and @AsmAhrens to strengthen anti-poverty tax credits.
👋S/O to my colleague @MayaPolon for being my co-pilot today!

@GavinNewsom: California must not forget the lessons learned from #COVID19.
The biggest lesson of #COVID19 is that waiting until a crisis to invest in public health is a costly and deadly mistake.
