San Fernando Valley-based lawmaker Jesse Gabriel has been appointed to a leadership position in the state Assembly.

Gabriel, a Democrat from Woodland Hills, will serve as the majority whip, helping to move through the Democratic Caucus’s legislative goals, and work with Speaker Anthony Rendon. He is taking over a position previously held by Todd Gloria, who was sworn-in last week as the mayor of San Diego.

He said this was a “critical moment” and that he was eager to work with fellow lawmakers to “pass a robust legislative agenda that addresses the biggest challenges facing California.”

“We have a difficult road ahead of us, but I am confident that we can make a real difference for folks in the San Fernando Valley and across our state,” he said.

Legislators return with new bills to help Californians hurt by the COVID-19 pandemic

SACRAMENTO — Like little flowers emerging from a charred landscape, some promising pandemic relief bills are sprouting in a California Legislature devastated by COVID-19.
They’ve scarcely been noticed in the fixation over President Trump’s immoral, undemocratic attempt to overturn the voters’ election of Joe Biden — and Gov. Gavin Newsom’s French Laundry dining and unemployment benefit debacles.

Newsom, however, made a smart move last week in an attempt to right his foundering governorship. He recruited the politically savvy Dee Dee Myers to be a senior advisor and head his agency — GO-Biz — that’s supposed to help expand California business.

The California native is best known for being the first female White House press secretary — for President Clinton — but since then has worked in corporate communications, including as a vice president for Warner Bros.
