My last day as the Assembly member for the 35th District was Dec. 1. It has been an honor and a privilege to represent the Central Coast these past six years.
Together we accomplished great things for the Central Coast, California, and beyond. Some of the highlights: We passed a bill (SB 846) to pave the way for extending operations at Diablo Canyon Power Plant until 2030. We secured funding to fix the dangerous Highway 41/46 “Wye.” We passed the first bill (AB 525) requiring California to set targets for offshore wind power development. We passed numerous bills to fight human trafficking and support victims. We bolstered the state’s commitment to funding Career Technical Education. We fought for small businesses and constituents impacted by COVID-19. We passed a first-in-the-nation law to protect kids online (AB 2273), as well as fought to stop Big Tech companies from experimenting on children using social media.
My sincerest thanks to my constituents of AD35, and to you, as my supporter in these endeavors! Quite obviously, I would not have had this opportunity to serve without your continued support and trust.
Our work is not done, and I will not stop fighting for these issues in the private sector. I look forward to partnering with anyone and everyone that shares a passion for these issues and wants to build a better world. In the near future, I look forward to announcing some exciting new ventures directed toward these ends.
For now, I am grateful to be home full-time, spending quality time with Shauna and our four awesome kids, coaching high school soccer, and practicing more law. The Central Coast truly is the greatest place to live, work, and raise a family.
