In Burbank today for League of California Cities’ spring policy meetings and legislative updates. Cal Cities represents most of the state’s 482 cities and is essential in helping shape legislation to better serve Thousand Oaks.

I serve on Cal Cities’ Environmental Quality (EQ) committee, where we voted to take positions on five proposed bills. These are recommendations to the league’s policy committee, where I also serve, and where we will vote on final positions later this year. (1/4)

Learning that both Scripps and Pomona Colleges are under investigation by the Department of Education for "antisemitism."

And yesterday, the House Committee on Education and Workforce sent Pomona College a letter regarding "recent evidence of antisemitism" and requested identifying information on all "alleged perpetrators" since October 7, 2023 - including students at other schools in the Claremont Colleges.

Both the Scripps and Pomona administrations have indicated they plan to collaborate with the fascists and snitch on their students, putting a tremendous number at risk.
