On Aug 10, Randy hosted the community at Chirp to celebrate his new book Best Birds of Big Bear Lake, co-authored with Chirp’s Kathie Portie. Live music by local teachers Colin & Lauren Schour (The Black Book) made the night even more special. Big Bear magic.

Big Bear celebrated National Night Out with an evening of food, fun, and community spirit. Sheriff’s deputies, city staff, and neighbors came together to promote safety, connection, and local pride. #nationalnightout

The best part of this "Assembly Thing" is all the people I get to meet. Spent a couple of hours in Acton talking with Jeri, Janet, & Carole. When we parted, I was moved to thank them specifically for showing up. How important that simple act is: Just. Show. Up. #putzforassembly #californiadistrict34

Got to join Cedric White in Lancaster over the weekend. I met his family & many lovely people. We need more good people like him to run for office. I also had a nice convo w/Diana Love, the Secretary of the CA State Dem Party. We can go so much farther when we work together. #caassembly34

Where’s Randy? In Riverside, at a meeting of the IE, Riverside, & Desert-Mountain Divisions of Cal Cities, I listened to Police Chiefs & DAs provide perspectives on Prop 36’s retail theft and drug trafficking impacts.

With the many protests happening around the country, we continue to evaluate how best to show up in our community. How we come together, when so many issues threaten to tear us apart. What are your thoughts?

A small (and delicious) reminder that every journey is better with a little sweetness—and a lot of heart. Thank you to Dank Donuts for their help developing the Putznut.

You may have seen a purple donut making its rounds, and what's a kickoff without a sweet tradition? 🍩✨💜 Our custom Putznut donut was more than a treat—it was a nod to Randy's dad, who used to sneak donuts on the regular.

Our region has among the highest levels of Medicaid recipients in the whole country, close to 50% of the population, and we heard from our frontline providers the pain 99% of us will feel from the looming budget bill, like higher healthcare costs for those who can least afford it,
