Democrats need to elect a new generation of leaders. It’s not about age—it’s about fresh ideas, fresh energy, a fresh vision—and something voters can get excited about. It’s also our best shot to create the actual change we need. #Democrat #California #Politics #Fryday4LG

Texas Republicans are so scared of the mid-terms that they are trying to rig it, change the redistricting process and install a permanent Republican House majority regardless of what the voters decide. If they’re so hell-bent on taking this path, we have to be ready to fight fire with fire.

Nearly 1 in 4 men under 30 years old report having no close friends, and 42% of teenage boys report experiencing feelings of loneliness.

Experts say early intervention and recruiting more men as teachers and counselors could address rising rates of suicide.

Trump cuts to key AmeriCorps programs are misguided and impacting California communities in a very real way. It’s making it harder for students to receiving incredibly important tutoring and mentoring.

Last week Governor Newsom signed an important executive order to expand pathways to educational and service opportunities for young men. As the father of three boys, I recognize just how important it is for them to serve, give back and be a part of something bigger than themselves.

Kamala Harris leaves an opening for a California climate champion Climate wasn’t on the front burner of the governor's race before Harris’ exit, and it still isn’t — at least for now.

Not running for governor, but I’m proud to be the clear climate champion running for Lt. Governor!

Hi, I’m Josh👋!

Excited about what we're building in the campaign for Lt. Gov! I've only been in the race for a few months and I'm eager to continue traveling around the state to share my vision of service, community and a more affordable CA for all!

I support Senator Sanders' efforts here. Teachers in California (including my wife!) have been underpaid for way too long. $60,000 should be the start, but we need to keep pushing until teachers are paid enough to live in the neighborhoods they teach in.

Since the days I clerked for her while she was District Attorney, I’ve deeply admired Vice President Harris and her commitment to serving California and our nation. I have no doubt that she will continue to make an incredible positive impact on our state and the country.

President Trump’s budget is already wreaking havoc on our communities. Planned Parenthood is an important pillar of health care in California and access to reproductive health must be protected.

Marines to leave Los Angeles, Pentagon says The Marines and National Guard were sent to the city in early June amid widespread federal immigration raids and fiery protests against the enforcement actions, with the Trump administration vowing to...

This is a good start, but it's not nearly enough. There are still thousands of National Guard troops that need to be sent home now. Every day they are still stationed in LA is a day wasted. It's time to end the games and end the guard's deployment.

‘Like having a hand cut off’: California schools reeling after AmeriCorps cuts AmeriCorps funding was temporarily restored, but schools and disaster relief sites are still struggling to fill the void from staffing shortages.

As I told @calmatters.org, illegal DOGE cuts to AmeriCorps are rash decisions that will hurt our communities. AmeriCorps provides students with invaluable opportunities including after-school enrichment and tutoring classes. These cuts are wholly inefficient.

Masked ICE agents are terrorizing our communities and sweeping up American citizens in the process. Staging these raids in places like a Home Depot parking lot shows this has nothing to do with keeping us safe. This is appalling and needs to stop.

Trump’s National Guard Troops Are Questioning Their Mission in L.A.

I visited the National Guard Base in LA last week, and here’s the TRUTH—what Trump is doing is dangerous. He’s playing politics with our military and wasting money. As I told @nytimes.com, if he can do it here, he can do it anywhere.
