Proposition 50

On November 4, 2025 California will hold a special election known as the “The Election Rigging Response Act.” I stand by the excellent work of the California Citizens Redistricting Commission, of which I am a proud member, but I support Prop 50. Learn more about my stance in this article at Politico.

For more information on the maps and the upcoming election, check out this analysis from the state’s nonpartisan Legislative Analyst Office which includes detailed maps. Another helpful resource is the voter guide from CalMatters which includes an interactive tool for you to check how Prop 50 will impact representation for you.
