34 felonies without consequences erode our democracy. My mom, Dr. Shirley Weber, reflects on Germany's unified commitment to their constitution versus our courts’ inconsistency. The rule of law must apply equally to all. Listen: youtu.be/wlHsAvjaZEI ⚖️

I presented SB 1049 to fix a real problem: providers delivering good care but facing denials over small, fixable errors. This bill allows 90 days to correct claims after a plan action—keeping the focus on patients, not paperwork. #SB1049 #HealthPolicy
Did you know your zip code impacts your health more than your genetic code? 80-90% of health outcomes are determined outside the doctor's office - in where we live, work, and play. These social factors shape our wellbeing far more than medical visits alone. #HealthEquity
Excited to announce my new podcast "Prescribing a Healthier Future" where we explore how policy shapes public health. Join me for deep dives into healthcare equity, community solutions, and conversations that matter. Together, we'll build a healthier California. #HealthPolicy
A small paperwork error shouldn’t cost providers thousands—or limit patient care. SB 1049 gives healthcare providers 90 days to fix correctable claim mistakes so they can get paid for care already delivered. Protect providers. Protect access. #SB1049 #HealthcareAccess #CAleg
SCR 122 is now official. February 2026 marks 100 years of Black History Month—a century of honoring the contributions and resilience of African Americans. Honoring this history means continuing the work to advance equity and justice for all. #BlackHistoryMonth #SCR122

Black Californians live 5 years less than the state average. Black mothers are nearly 3x more likely to die from pregnancy complications, despite most deaths being preventable. Your race or zip code should never determine your health. #BlackHealthEquity
Most people are expected to navigate deductibles, copays, prior authorizations, and coverage limits without ever being taught how insurance really works. Watch the full conversation: https://youtu.be/0ZXqUZl8Pe8

Maternal mental health is the leading complication of pregnancy in CA, affecting 1 in 3 moms. I’m presenting #SCR161 to recognize Maternal Mental Health Awareness Month. We must end the stigma and ensure families can access the care they deserve 🩺🗳️

Hezbollah ensures Israel can no longer hide its losses. Cheaply made FPV drones are crushing tanks & bases, inflicting soldier casualties in the 100s. Israel is now unable to hide its losses due to it all being caught on film. Robert Inlakesh on the implications of these new drone warfare tactics:

Hartenstein screens for Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Wemby is near the level and dropping. Hartenstein again is not really rolling he's looking to hit Wemby to engage him so he can impact Shai. Champagnie holds his help, Caruso flows to the corner and hits another 3. Timely.

When Sergei Krajev, a bus driver, was killed by Gary Jones, both white, NO outrage. No two-tier Britain. No pure cold rage. For Nigel Farage, white lives only matter when the killer is non-white. When the killer's white? White lives don't matter. Farage is the one creating two-tier Britain.
