Catching Up With Rick - Legislative Update
Dear Friends and Neighbors,
The 2025 Legislative Session is now well past the halfway mark and I'm proud to share an update on where my bills stand in the legislative process. As you know, we've already achieved one of my biggest priorities this year, passing the California Film and TV Jobs Act, which is already working to revive the film and television industry and bring jobs back to California.
Through the rest of the legislative session, I remain focused on some of California's most pressing challenges, addressing housing and homelessness, improving infrastructure, advancing climate action and environmental protections, strengthening LGBTQ+ civil rights, health care and combating antisemitism in our schools.
I was honored to join the Hollywood Chamber's State of the State as a panelist, where we discussed key issues impacting Hollywood and Assembly District 51, including what’s next for our local economy following the signing of the California Film & TV Tax Credit. I also enjoyed connecting with neighbors during National Night Out in both Hollywood and West Hollywood, where community members and local law enforcement came together to strengthen trust and safety.
Whether you're a student, parent, worker or small business owner, my team and I are here to support you. I'm grateful every day for the opportunity to serve and for the inspiring individuals and organizations that make our community such a vibrant and compassionate place.
