AB 2770 is on the Governor's desk. The bill returns a portion of that park to the San Pasqual Band of Mission Indians.
It lets the tribe care for the land, maintain the site, and open it back up to the public. It puts stewardship in the hands of the people with the deepest connection to it.
If it's signed, I hope you'll come out and see it. Bring your family.

California lawmakers have approved legislation that could make California Native American Day an official paid holiday for state employees.

AB 1841 cleared the Legislature on August 31 and now heads to Gov. Gavin Newsom.

Introduced by Assemblymember James C. Ramos, a member of the Serrano/Cahuilla Tribe and Californiaโ€™s first Native American state lawmaker, the bill would recognize Native American Day as a state-employee holiday once necessary funding is provided.

California Native American Day is observed annually on the fourth Friday of September.

Ramos has worked toward establishing the paid holiday since 1998, when he served on the San Manuel Tribal Council. In 2021, legislation he authored established Native American Day as a paid holiday for California judicial employees.

The bill is not law yet. Gov. Newsom must still act on it, and broader implementation would require legislative funding.

What would official recognition of California Native American Day as a paid state holiday mean to you? ๐Ÿชถ
