• On May 29, U.S. Rep. Salud Carbajal (D-Santa Barbara) released a statement in response to President Donald Trump’s executive order, “Ordering the Reform of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission,” which directs the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to coordinate with Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) on reforming existing regulations, including time limits on license application reviews. According to Carbajal’s office, the executive order also mandates certain staff cuts and reductions in public input procedures, “under the guise of streamlining” nuclear energy projects. “The Central Coast is home to California’s last remaining active nuclear power plant, Diablo Canyon. Our community understands that safety must always come first when using nuclear energy,” Carbajal said in his May 29 statement. “President Trump’s order to shake up the Nuclear Regulatory Commission is yet another reckless decision that could weaken the agency’s ability to protect communities near nuclear plants. I will fight any attempts to roll back the safety and environmental protections that keep Central Coast residents safe.” Situated north of Avila Beach in San Luis Obispo County, Diablo Canyon generates 9 percent of California’s total electricity, according to Carbajal’s office.
•U.S. Sens. Alex Padilla (D-California), ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Immigration Subcommittee, and Adam Schiff (D-California) joined U.S. Reps. Luz Rivas (D-Arleta) and Sydney Kamlager-Dove (D-Los Angeles) and 34 other lawmakers in signing a May 29 letter to urge Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to reconsider the termination of the legal status of a 4-year-old Bakersfield girl and her family. The young girl, identified in the letter by her initials as S.G.V., has short bowel syndrome and will lose essential medical care at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles if deported, the letter explains. “We urge you to reconsider the termination of S.G.V. and her family’s legal status as S.G.V.’s doctors say she could die within days without treatment. … Your department has revoked this child’s legal status in the U.S., which interrupts the urgent, life-saving care she receives at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles every six weeks,” the letter to Noem states. “Due to S.G.V.’s short bowel syndrome, she receives intensive medical treatments such as: being tethered to feeding tubes 24 hours a day; spending 14 hours each night being hooked up to an intravenous feeding system; and receiving a different type of nutrition via a gastric tube into her stomach four times a day. In 2023, S.G.V. and her family were allowed to enter the U.S. legally on humanitarian grounds. … We believe this family’s situation clearly meets the need for humanitarian aid and urge you and this administration to reconsider its decision. It is our duty to protect the sick, vulnerable, and defenseless. Without action, S.G.V. will die. We urge a prompt response from your department and a swift decision to extend this family’s legal status in the U.S.”
• State Sen. Monique Limón (D-Santa Barbara) chose the Westminster Free Clinic and Community Care Center as the 2025 nonprofit of the year for the state Senate’s 21st District. In a May 21 statement, Limón described the Ventura County-based nonprofit as “an invaluable resource” that provides various health care services to underserved, low-income, and uninsured residents, “as well as innovative programming to fill the gaps we so often see in our health care system.” In 2023, the clinic provided more than 13,900 medical services and served more than 2,100 people through the nonprofit’s school and community outreach programs, according to Limón’s office.
