The bill @CAGovernor Newsom signed into protects the child-parent relationship by PREVENTING politicians & school staff from inappropriately intervening in family matters & attempting to control if, when, & how families have deeply personal conversations. Under California law,

This is a deeply unserious lawsuit, seemingly designed to stoke the dumpster fire on this website rather than surface legitimate legal claims. #AB1955 preserves the child-parent relationship, California law ensures minors can't legally change their name or gender without

California is creating safe environments where all students can thrive. This law does not remove parental rights and consent. Quite the opposite — it ensures schools are a supportive space for children.

Our Caucus Members were thrilled to kick off this year’s LGBTQ+ Leadership Summit, co-hosted with Equality California 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ This annual convening serves as a pivotal forum for LGBTQ+ local electeds to collaborate on how best to serve our diverse communities across California.

Thrilled to join @EQCA to talk about our progress on #LGBTQrights! Last year, I authored #SB447, the BRIDGE Act, to promote inclusivity and tolerance nationwide – and those ads are due to air this month! Together, @CALGBT will continue fighting for our #LGBTQ+ community.

We’re grateful for bipartisan support on SJR 6, which denounces the discrimination against LGBTQ+ service members created under Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell. Thank you to Anna Caballero for leading this effort alongside our Caucus, and thank you to Assemblymember Chris Ward for floor managing 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

The LGBTQ Caucus thanks Chairs Caballero & Wicks for their support of our priority & endorsed legislation to support LGBTQ+ Californians across various issues, including health equity, civic engagement, civil rights & community protections One step closer to the Governor’s Desk!

BREAKING: #AB2442 has passed #CALeg and is on its way to @CAGovernor. We are proud to partner with Assemblymember Rick Chavez Zbur & Planned Parenthood Affiliates of California on this important bill to ensure #TGI people can access essential health care.

Last night at the #DNC, Tim Walz talked about his family's long and emotional journey with infertility. We won't stop fighting until LGBTQ+ and ALL Californians have equitable access to fertility and infertility treatment, including #IVF. #SB729

Earlier this week, Members of our LGBTQ Caucus were proud to represent in the Annual Legislative Softball Game in a friendly SoCal vs. NorCal match up 🥎

#SB729- 2 yrs in the making + decades of painstaking work by advocates & legislators who paved the way. This is a historic day for many Californians, & the LGBTQ+ folks discriminated against, that want to build a family. California Governor be a reproductive justice warrior & sign SB 729

While there are attempts to roll back protections for fertility care, such as IVF, our Caucus is proud of Senator Caroline Menjivar for championing #SB729, a priority bill to support Californians’ family-building journey. #SB729 now heads to California Governor, where we hope it’ll be signed!

CA is behind 14 states and D.C. that require insurance companies to cover infertility treatments like #IVF! We’re asking California Governor to sign #SB729 to support family-building equity and remove financial barriers to Californians trying to build a family.

As the 2024 legislative year comes to an end, we are proud of our 12 priority bills and 5 endorsed bills that are heading to the Governor’s Desk for signature. We thank our colleagues for their allyship in supporting such legislation to uplift LGBTQ+ Californians 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️#CALeg
