California authorities have seized or destroyed 139,293 pounds of illicit cannabis so far this year.
Through the Unified Cannabis Enforcement Task Force, @CAcannabisdept and @CaliforniaDFW are cracking down on illegal cannabis operations to protect public safety and support California’s safe, regulated cannabis industry.
For the second time this week, our nation's legal system has rejected the Trump Administration's illegal attempts to interfere with states' ability to administer elections.
No matter how desperately Trump tries to undermine California's sovereignty, we will continue to deliver a free and fair election that follows both state and federal law.

Trump is letting the big polluters who funded his campaigns off the hook for major methane leaks.
This is recklessness on another level and will harm communities everywhere.
California is going to double down on our work getting polluters to clean up leaks as they are found.

NEW: CALIFORNIA HOMELESSNESS DOWN TWO YEARS IN A ROW
California’s preliminary 2026 results show a 7.3% drop in unsheltered homelessness and a 4.1% drop in total homelessness. Proof that building housing, expanding treatment and shelter, and increasing accountability works.

Preparing for El Niño means acting before storms hit. Here's how we're moving faster to get critical flood and storm protection projects underway ⬇️
Under @CAgovernor Newsom's emergency action, certain state laws can be suspended for qualifying work, helping streamline permitting and environmental review, accelerate floodwater diversion efforts and remove barriers that could delay projects protecting people and communities.
We're also partnering with the @CA_Trans_Agency to identify vulnerable stretches of Highway 1 and advance protections for the coastal communities that depend on this vital route.

🌊 King Tides are continuing to impact California’s coastline through Friday, with coastal flooding already reported across the state.
As El Niño impacts continue, coastal communities should stay alert and prepare for changing conditions.
⚠️ Cal OES urges residents and visitors to:
- Stay out of the water and away from dangerous surf.
- Never drive around barricades or through flooded roads.
- Avoid flooded areas and never enter water of unknown depth.
- Monitor local advisories and take precautions to protect people and property.
Stay informed and check the latest forecasts and warnings at weather.gov.

CNN: As the Pacific overheats, coastlines are taking a beating. What the Governor signed today is an executive order that would free up communities to get earthmovers and heavy bulldozers down on the sand in a matter of hours — instead of sometimes months — which require public meetings and environmental reviews and all of that.
@CAGovernor Gavin Newsom: This is an affordability crisis. This is literally at the core of so many things that that frustrate us and concern us. And I just pray that people start paying attention to what the hell is going on and what we can do about it, because we still have agency, we can still solve this issue.
Dolores Huerta represented the best of us.
California — and the United States — would not be what we are today without her resolute spirit, her passion for justice and fairness, and her commitment to those overlooked and forgotten.
Dolores' fight for gender equity, workers' rights, and civil rights paved the way for generations to come — teaching people what was possible with determination and heart.
Her legacy lies not just in the accomplishments she achieved, but in the people who follow in her footsteps, take up the mantle, and keep creating a better world.
Dolores Huerta representaba lo mejor de nuestra sociedad.
California — y todo Estados Unidos — no serían lo que son hoy sin su espíritu incansable, su pasión por la justicia y la equidad, y su compromiso con quienes tantas veces han sido ignorados y olvidados.
Dolores luchó por la igualdad de género, los derechos laborales y los derechos civiles — enseñándonos lo que es posible con la determinación y pasión.
Su legado no se mide únicamente por todo lo que logró, sino también por las personas que siguen sus pasos, asumen esa responsabilidad y continúan trabajando para construir un mundo mejor.

"Keeping communities safe means taking action before a storm arrives. Cal OES is putting the Governor’s emergency proclamation into action by leading coordination among state agencies, preparing resources, and supporting our local partners. Together, we’re working to protect vital routes like Highway 1, which coastal communities depend on to evacuate safely, connect with essential services, and receive help during emergencies." - Cal OES Director Caroline Thomas Jacobs
I just issued two executive orders to bolster protections along our coasts — and around Highway 1 — ahead of potentially dangerous El Niño storms.
We're proactively putting state agencies to work to guard against possible storm damage and road closures.

Thanks to @CAgovernor’s action, we’re moving faster than ever to prepare for El Niño.
This includes working around the clock with local, state and federal partners to protect our communities – from reinforcing key portions of our Pacific Coast Highway to speeding approvals for flood and storm safety projects.

MAJOR MILESTONE!
Prop 1 has now DELIVERED more than 2,900 PERMANENT HOMES for Californians, including our brave veterans.
Fantastic news in our defense against Donald Trump's attacks on our Constitution and elections.
Make no mistake: Trump won't stop trying to illegally seize power or deface our democracy.
California will keep fighting back.
