Nothing more dystopian than the map of all the Whole Foods in (or better yet around I should say) the Los Angeles area On this map alone you can easily determine where the bulk of black and brown people live or the difference between the communities of have and have-nots

Head Start makes an impact and CCRC Head Start staff and parents were in Washington D.C. to share more about its value in our communities. Thank you to @repnormatorres, @senalexpadilla, @repadamschiff, @repcardenas, and @senlaphonza for meeting with our staff and families!

Access to early developmental screenings ensures they receive the resources and services they need to succeed in school and in life. The introduction bill SB 1112 yesterday co-authored by @SenatorMenjivar and @AsmAguiarCurry is one step closer to making this a reality.

Speaker Johnson and his shady tax bill that will help big corporations more than it will help low-income families. And he claims he's a man of Christ. Get outta here...izza no!

Bobby Portis is awesome. Asked if adjusting to FIBA rules is hard, he says: "Hard is not for me, man. Hard is for the single mom with four kids. This is what I do. ... Single mom, struggling to provide for her kids, that's hard."

“In the #LosAngeles region, for example, providing full-time care to a preschooler costs $2,240 monthly, yet the voucher covers $1,253.” CCRC is featured in the latest @LATimes article on how the current rates aren’t working for providers. Full article: latimes.com/california/story…

A great day at the Maggie Hathaway Golf Course! I’m thrilled to see new funding to make major improvements to this special course— it’s the first course I ever played when I was 11. I appreciate the @USGA, @thescga and the Los Angeles Country Club for this donation! #USOpen – at Los Angeles, CA
