I will also provide an overview of the first state budget I helped craft as chair of the Assembly Budget Committee; a budget that will help strengthen our middle class.
- Improving Education - This budget creates thousands more full-day preschool slots, makes the biggest K-12 education investment in California history, and creates thousands of slots for California students at our state universities.
- Reducing Poverty - It eliminates the Maximum Family Grant Rule so that children aren't punished for being born into poverty and funds the second year of our state Earned Income Tax Credit.
- Fighting Homelessness - The state will provide over $2 billion to help communities provide supportive housing.
- Protecting the Environment - We are taking a leading role in the largest dam removal project in American history in order to restore the water, wildlife, and communities that rely on the Klamath River.
- Saving for the Future - The budget includes the largest financial reserves in over three decades.
