CA Assemblymember Chris Ward

Happy Valentine’s Day, San Diego ❤️ Every day, I’m reminded how lucky we are to call this place home. Grateful to serve this incredible community - today and always.

Our LGBTQ Caucus Members were hard at work this Monday standing up for Californians by defending access to health care when Planned Parenthood clinics saw national Republicans defund them, and calling out Donald Trump’s racism.

Some of us spend time to help. Others spend time to hurt. See how we spent our Fridays back in our districts.

Harassment and intimidation have no place in San Diego. We stand with the Somali community and childcare providers.

Big Wednesday ahead: policy, staying focused on the work, and being nowhere near the Epstein files.

We grieve with Minnesota and communities nationwide, and we’re fighting here in CA to protect our neighbors and hold the Trump Administration accountable.

One week ago, federal immigration agents killed Alex Pretti in Minneapolis. His death, like the death of Renee Nicole Good and many others, never should have happened.

Today marks the anniversary of #RoeVWade. Nearly four years after it was overturned by Dobbs, we've seen a tidal wave of abortion bans across the country. In CA, we’re fighting to keep reproductive healthcare safe, accessible, and protected—because abortion care is healthcare, period.

The All People’s Celebration, hosted by Alliance San Diego is one of the first events of the year that brings community together. This breakfast honors the legacy of Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and recognizes those in our community who work everyday to build a better future.

Deeply disappointed to see San Diego organizations promoting careers at ICE detention facilities. If you’re looking for meaningful, dignified public service that strengthens our state, I encourage you to visit calcareers.ca.gov.

Today, we honor Dr. King and his fight for justice—a reminder that progress isn’t given, it’s fought for. I've been honored to visit the Edmund Pettus Bridge, where he and countless others marched for voting rights and equality. Excited to see folks taking action in the community today!

New Bill Alert! Californians are constantly being tracked on their mobile devices, often without consent. Last week, I introduced AB 1542 alongside advocates to ban the sale or sharing of sensitive personal info with third parties - protecting our privacy & rights. #PrivacyMatters

ICYMI — The California Legislative LGBTQ Caucus released the following statement in response to the fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good by an ICE agent in Minneapolis yesterday:

From our family to yours, happy holidays! 🎄 Grateful for a year of standing up for our communities, protecting privacy, housing, and our outdoors. Wishing you joy, rest, and meaningful time with loved ones as we head into the new year!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and your loved ones! Today I’m feeling grateful for our community of family and friends - and the privilege to represent San Diego.

If you feel inspired to give back this holiday season, @cafoodbanks.org and uwsd.org are doing amazing work!

On #VeteransDay, we honor the 240,000+ veterans who call San Diego home, and so many more across our state and nation. Thank you for your courage, sacrifice, and service. I’m proud to stand with our military families and fight for the care and support they deserve.
