      Last night at midnight, our legislative session ended. Since taking office, 36 bills I’ve authored have been signed into law. I now have 6 more bills on the Governor’s desk awaiting his action, on issues ranging from mental health to transportation to criminal justice reform:

      1. #SB855 is a major piece of legislation to expand access to mental health & addiction care in California. It requires insurance companies to cover far more mental health & addiction care. It will be the strongest such legislation in the country.https://calmatters.org/health/2020/08/california-leader-mental-health/ …

      2. #SB592 is a major piece of criminal justice reform & anti-racism legislation. It will make California juries more diverse & representative of the community by dramatically expanding our jury pools to include anyone who files a tax return,.https://www.davisvanguard.org/2020/08/fair-juries-act-reflects-community-diversity-now-one-step-closer-to-becoming-law/ …

      3. #SB932 is first-of-its-kind state legislation to require health data collection on communicable disease impacts on #LGBTQ people, including from #COVID19. Historically, LGBTQ people have been effectively invisible when it comes to health data. No more.https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/Bill-tracking-coronavirus-in-LGBTQ-community-15527963.php …

      4. #SB132 protects transgender people in prison, by allowing them to be housed where they‘re safest, instead of automatically being placed in the facility corresponding to their birth-assigned gender. Trans women are frequently brutalized in men’s prisons.https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/Transgender-women-could-avoid-men-s-prison-15528275.php …

      5. #SB288 expedites approval of sustainable transportation projects, including bike lanes, pedestrian safety upgrades, dedicated bus lanes & light rail. It will move CA toward a more sustainable future & help stimulate the economy by accelerating projects.https://www.sfchronicle.com/bayarea/article/California-bill-to-fast-track-public-15528535.php …

      6. #SB145 ends discrimination against #LGBTQ young people on the sex offender registry. Currently, these youth are forced onto the registry for consensual sex — even if a judge doesn’t think it’s appropriate — in situations where straight youth are not.https://www.sfchronicle.com/politics/article/California-bill-eliminating-sex-offender-list-15529263.php …

          Yes, and the irony is hilarious. Now do contact tracing, & forced isolation for HIV and end it already. No excuses after covid measures. 3% cause 60%+ infections.pic.twitter.com/z6WLWV5Aao

          That's not what the law does. It's still a crime, still gets you convicted but now instead of the law requiring the person to register as a lifetime sex offender the judge will use a pre-determined set of qualifications to measure the risk of re-offense before mandating registry.

          All of these bills are idiotic.
