We are heartbroken by the loss of pilot George Marciniw and reporter Eliana Moreno in the NewsChopper 4 crash. Our deepest condolences are with their families, friends, and colleagues at @NBCLA and @TELEMUNDO52 during this difficult time.

We welcome the Supreme Court's ruling protecting vote-by-mail access. One in three Latinos voted by mail in the 2024 election. For many, voting by mail is often the only way their voices are heard. Voters should be able to cast their ballots without fear or unnecessary barriers.

Honored to join friends and colleagues at @NALEO's 43rd Annual Conference. As a Lifetime Member and President's Award recipient, I'm grateful to celebrate 50 years of an organization that has strengthened Latino leadership nationwide.

It was an honor to be in a room with so many Latino leaders from across the country. Gathering together to celebrate @NALEO’s 50-year legacy was a powerful reminder of how far we’ve come and how much can accomplish when we lead, collaborate, and uplift one another.

Building relationships that strengthen our communities. BSP Executive Director @Luis_E_Sandoval was honored to connect with Erica Bernal Martinez, CEO of @NALEO Educational Fund, and Vanessa Aramayo (@varamayo), President & CEO of @afabc_la Alliance for a Better Community (ABC). These conversations reflect the importance of collaboration across organizations committed to advancing opportunity, workforce development, and economic mobility for California's communities. Together, partnerships like these help expand access to education, workforce training, and pathways to lasting economic opportunity. #BuildingSkillsPartnership #NALEO #AllianceForABetterCommunity #WorkforceDevelopment #CommunityPartnership #EconomicMobility

It was an honor to speak at the @NALEO 43rd annual conference! As the leader of the Senate and a lifetime member of NALEO, it is critical that organizations like this continue to open doors for our future leaders who one day may be in charge of the Golden State’s legacy.
