“It’s an honor to have the support of so many leaders whom I deeply admire from across California,” Mia Bonta said. “There’s a lot of work to be done in Sacramento to help Californians recover from this pandemic and economic crisis. I feel fortunate to have relationships with many members of the State Legislature so I am able to immediately get to work on economic relief for small businesses and working families, increasing resources for public education, and addressing housing affordability and homelessness should I have the privilege representing the 18th Assembly District.” ![]()
