#VeteransDay celebrations are in full swing! I joined the #SanFernando Chamber’s coffee to honor #veterans, like Adrian Rodriguez, a Navy veteran now serving his community as the owner of The Film Crew!
Then over to KP SoCal to celebrate veterans continuing to serve, this time in #healthcare spaces.

#CalFresh cards are being loaded as of THIS MORNING! 🍓 Yesterday, a judge ruled the federal administration must IMMEDIATELY restore full #SNAP benefits to families. The administration is appealing the decision yet again! 😡 But California has your back, & we’ll keep fighting for you. 💪🏽

RAMP LA brings community-based reentry & mentorship programs to #MissionHills. By empowering justice impacted youth through housing, education, apprenticeships in trades with livable wages and therapeutic support, they are advancing decarceration through community integration.

It was great connecting with neighbors at #CanogaPark’s Neighborhood Watch to discuss the challenges our middle class families are facing from loss of assistance & childcare costs to public safety and homeownership.
Together, we’re formulating real solutions for #SD20 families.

Nothing pairs better than community, policy ideas, & warm bagels! 🥯💬
Thank you to everyone who joined me in #Burbank, and our special guest Policy Analyst Kimberly. We’re taking your ideas back to Sacramento!
Together, we’re building a stronger #SD20 through policy that meets our direct needs. 💪

🌹Over the #DiaDeLosMuertos 🕯️ weekend, #SD20 strengthened our community through shared remembrance, celebrating the lives of our loved ones, and sharing the pride of tradition with the generations who will tell our stories when we also pass on. 🌼

CA sued the federal administration to protect the 5.5 million of us on #CalFresh, inc 146,977 in #Burbank & #SanFernandoValley. AND WE WON! 🙌🏽 Two judges ruled they must fund #SNAP, despite the #shutdown. The state has also stepped in with $80M to support #foodbanks 🥗 www.lafoodbank.org or 2-1-1.

No tricks here! Just treats and tail wags! 🐶🍬
#TeamMenjivar and I had a fang-tastic time joining Halloween events all across #SD20. Big thank you to everyone who made this spooky season full of smiles and community spirit! 🎃🧡

Checkout Caltrans’s work on this bridge #SunValley! Not only did they clean up the trash & graffiti, they got rid of those barbed wires! I’m excited to share that Caltrans is working on a new project to fix the pedestrian areas along the #Burbank 5 to the 14.Don’t forget to complete a CSR. 🔗 in bio.

I got to tour Love Always Sanctuary #SunValley, a nonprofit animal rescue dedicated to giving neglected and abused animals a safe, loving home. From goats to chickens, these animals are now at their forever home while teaching our community about healing, compassion, and ethical care.

Honored to speak at The Village Family Services Summit: Strategies for Unhoused Youth, where I shared my own experiences growing up & connected with youth & community leaders.
I visited NEVHC Maclay Wellness center to discuss youth support services and access to health care and SNAP benefits.

What an amazing morning as “Principal for a Day” at Chase Early Education Center #PanoramaCity! 💙 From greeting parents to seeing classrooms in action, it was pure joy watching the future leaders of #SD20 learn & grow. Huge thanks to Principal Chen for welcoming me into your campus family!

#POV Your State Senator is fighting hard to address the urgent issues facing the people of #Burbank & the #SanFernandoValley! Gov. Newsom has SIGNED #SB20 The #Silicosis Training, Outreach & Prevention Act, to help STOP this preventable epidemic that is harming workers in #SD20!

A little nostalgia and a lot of creativity! ✨ I toured Nickelodeon Animation Studio in #Burbank with #TeamMenjivar to meet the talented artists behind the shows that shaped our childhoods and continue to inspire new ones in #SD20!
October 15, 2025 at 12:27 AM
We’ll keep fighting for you. #TeamMenjivar and I will never give up on protecting your access to affordable health care!

Every policy has a family & a community behind it. From racially motivated immigration enforcement in #SD20 to cuts in #Medicaid to the federal gov #shutdown, vital services & safety are at risk. Reminds us who pays the price when the gov fails to act responsibly & in the interests of the people.

Returning to where it all started- Reseda Police Academy Magnet, to deliver the keynote for all LAUSD PAMs during their Leadership Conference. Thank you for allowing me to share my journey, and for asking questions to hopefully inspire you along your own path!

⚠️HAPPENING NOW⚠️ Because of Trump’s government #shutdown, #Burbank Airport currently has NO air traffic controllers in the tower until 10 PM tonight‼️ Trump and his allies are putting YOUR jobs & safety at risk #SD20‼️

Come with me to La Hacienda in #Sylmar to visit 9️⃣ businesses. With the goal to create safe community spaces through Colombian food and culture! I had the chance to recognize and support them by buying and trying delicious foods from each stall! ✨

✨LAST NIGHT!!!✨#Reseda Rising brought together artists, food trucks + a locals market for a night of music, interactive art & #818 unity. #TeamMenjivar & I had so much fun connecting with YOU, our community & small businesses, bringing awareness to the services my office offers & passing out swag!
