Dear Friend,

It’s been a busy couple weeks in Washington as I worked with my colleagues in the House on legislation from funding the government to enhancing immigration practices. Here are some highlights from the last two weeks:


Addressing the climate crisis

Our district has witnessed the devastating effects of climate change for far too long, including droughts and dangerous wildfires. Last week I took the opportunity to speak on the House floor about the importance of finding ways to fight this crisis. I refuse to sit back and do nothing. For years I have worked for meaningful solutions to address this issue and that will continue. Time is running out!

Dear friends,

I made it a point to tour hospitals funded through financing arranged by the California Health Facilities Financing Authority (CHFFA), a state financing program I oversee as California State Treasurer. Since January 2019, CHFFA has approved more than $1 billion of conduit bond financing, $5 million in loans, and $30 million in grants.

These health care facilities are serving our children and our communities in profoundly beneficial ways. I am fortunate to have met so many wonderful and caring doctors, nurses, hospital staff, and administrators. (For more information, see page 3.)

I personally experienced this care in San Diego at the Rady Children’s Hospital, and also at the Mattel Children’s Hospital at UCLA, Loma Linda’s Children’s Hospital, UCSF Children’s Hospital, UCSD Children’s Hospital, the Children’s Hospital of Orange County, the Children’s Hospital UC Irvine, and the Earl & Loraine Miller Children’s & Women’s Hospital in Long Beach.

In the near future I plan to visit the UC Davis Children’s Hospital, the Children’s Hospital and Research Center Oakland, Children’s Hospital Los Angeles, Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital Stanford, and the Valley Children’s Hospital. 

In Peace & Friendship, 
Fiona
