California Celebrates Italian American Heritage Month

Happy Italian American Heritage Month!

From the fishermen and vineyard pioneers of Northern California, to the Central Valley ranchers, to the SoCal trailblazers in entertainment, food, and more — the Golden State celebrates the contributions of Italian Americans to our story.

The Studio just won the most Emmys by a comedy series in a single year.

Through our California Film & Tax Credit, the Golden State isn't just strengthening the entertainment space — we're dominating it.

that wsj story now feels like a culmination of anti-trans panic that should prompt a reckoning in the mainstream media. was totally bunk, false, peddled. it’s the kind of thing that has led to reconciliation before, and it should now. news editors should be looking at themselves in the mirror

Four bowls of different mac and cheese. Headline: The Best Boxed Macaroni and Cheese

Macaroni and cheese traces back its origins to Ancient Rome. Its journey has culminated in one of the greatest contributions to the kitchen pantry.
We tasted 19 boxes to find the best boxed mac and cheese. nyti.ms/4gcuoCW

Hey, check out this thing I made!

You deserve a break on Sundays that doesn’t break the bank.

22 television projects set to generate an estimated $1.1 billion and employ 6,500 cast and crew across California.

🎞️ NEW: 22 new TV projects are going to be filmed in California via our newly expanded tax credit.

This means an estimated $1.1 billion in additional economic activity and 6,500 cast/crew jobs across the state.

The Golden State remains the beating heart of film and television.

A glimpse into Trump's make-believe world of "giant water valves" in Northern California…

I just signed the Election Rigging Response Act to put Proposition 50 up for a vote on November 4th.

The people of California will have the power to push back against Texas and any other state that obeys Donald Trump's demand to rig the next election.

🫡

On Monday, I gave Donald Trump a chance to back off on having his GOP lapdogs rig next year’s elections by further gerrymandering red states.

He instead chose personal power over our country.

This November, California voters will be given the option to fight back.

The Crazy The Country Needs: An Unfiltered Sit-Down with Gavin Newsom No talking points. No PR polish. Just a candid conversation about Trump, democracy, and why Newsom won't give an inch.

I got to talk with my Governor Gavin Newsom today.

We swapped the fancy PR backdrop for real talk about Trump, democracy, and why “crazy California” might save us all.

Getting content in front of people who won’t ordinarily get our stuff and consume it differently when it’s coming from someone they’ve already formed a connection with — it’s the whole ballgame.

Thanks so much to @barrettadair.bsky.social for her support setting this up starting early this year!

YouTube video by Frazz Gavin Newsom: The Crazy We Need

Had an amazing time collaborating with @mrs-frazzled.bsky.social!

Along with @governor.ca.gov Digital’s usual (amazing) in-house content, today’s LA event launching California’s response to Trump’s 2026 gerrymandering scheme in Texas was our office’s very first Creator Corps event.

And it was a slam dunk!

On November 4th in California, you will have the power to stand up to Donald Trump. You will have the power to stand up for people.

We're going to give the people of this state the power to stand up for democracy.

😉

Donald Trump is so scared of the American people holding him accountable for his catastrophic actions, he wants Republicans to rig the 2026 elections for him.

Donald Trump wants to live in his own make-believe world where he's not crashing America's workforce into the ground.

Maybe he's too busy daydreaming about his $200M gold-plated ballroom...

The Trump Administration began betraying Americans by gutting federal disaster response.

Now they're deliberately putting a blindfold on to pretend the climate crisis isn't making natural disasters even worse.

The Trump EPA's idiotic decision to shut down research and revoke the basis of all federal actions to fight greenhouse gases is a punch in the gut.

Americans won’t be deceived by Donald Trump's pathetic abandonment of science and the law.

Whether we have to call a special election, set up a ballot initiative, write a bill, or fight it out in court, make no mistake:

If Texas Republicans go through with Donald Trump's demands to redistrict the GOP to victory in the 2026 elections, California will be ready.

Governor Newsom's Op-Ed in the Wall Street Journal: "Clean Energy Powers California’s Economic Growth"

Republicans are dragging us back to the days of coal and lung cancer.

Meanwhile, California gets 2/3 of our power from renewable and zero-carbon sources — the largest economy on Earth to achieve this.

It's time for America to follow the Golden State's lead into the future.

Hey, Donald Trump — have you gotten your fill of playing military dictator in LA yet?

End your occupation now.

To reach their made-up deportation quotas, Stephen Miller and Donald Trump are violating constitutional rights, terrorizing communities, and detaining people through racial profiling.

Their heartless, cruel campaign is destroying our economy and society.

Gov. Newsom signs last-minute housing bill overhauling landmark environmental law Lawmakers claimed Senate Bill 131 will kick-start housing production.

Gov. Gavin Newsom signed legislation tonight that overhauls #CEQA, the landmark environmental law that developers and other advocates have blamed for holding up housing production in CA www.sacbee.com/news/politic...

I just enacted the most game-changing housing reforms in recent California history.

We're urgently embracing an abundance agenda by tearing down the barriers that have delayed new affordable housing and infrastructure for decades.

Let’s get building, California.
