Thank you to Catalyst of San Diego & Imperial Counties and our leaders who remain committed to supporting Californians in the face of rising hate. We urge Governor Newsom to pass the 2026 budget with the funding and ensure critical anti-hate programs continue for our communities statewide.
Thank you to the Assembly and Senate for including $30 million for the program in the 2026 CA Budget! 👏 We applaud you for continuing to support Californians in the face of hate.
We are especially grateful to Senator John Laird and Assemblymember Jesse Gabriel for their leadership in the budget process.
Thank you so much to Assemblymember Dr. Darshana Patel, Robert Rivas, Assemblymember Mike Fong, Assemblymember Corey Jackson, Assemblymember Stephanie Nguyen, and Assemblymember Alex Lee, as well as Senator Monique Limón, Senator Aisha Wahab, Senator Christopher Cabaldon, and the entire AAPI Legislative Caucus for your leadership in taking a stand against hate in California.
