Thank you to all the men and women who serve so valiantly to keep our communities safe.

This past Friday, Governor Brown signed the Pet Rescue & Adoption Act into law! Through this new policy, CA is setting an example on how businesses, local animal shelters, and rescue groups can work together toward a common goal - ending the inhumane treatment of animals at puppy mills and the unnecessary euthanasia of pets at shelters. Thank you to Social Compassion In Legislation for all their hard work on this issue!

Great article about Dan Okenfuss of my staff and his exceptional family. http://www.sacbee.com/news/local/news-columns-blogs/marcos-breton/article178681261.html

‘I don’t care about height’: This fearless Sacramento kid transcends the ‘m-word’

Hai Okenfuss was born with a form of dwarfism, but don’t call him the “m-word.” It has been hurled at little people for generations. But Hai, a champion youth athlete adopted from a Hanoi orphanage, rises above its ugly history.

Earlier this week, I was proud to stand next to my colleagues from the California Legislative Women’s Caucus as Governor Brown signed a package of bills to support California’s women, children and families. While on stage, I realized that the Governor and I were the only two men in attendance to celebrate this moment alongside all these accomplished women that fought hard for these legislative victories. Too often, my female colleagues are outnumbered at bill signings, committee hearings or discussions about the big issues facing Californians. I hope this serves as inspiration and motivation to everyone – on behalf of our moms, sisters, daughters, grandmas and all the women in our life – to fight so women have more opportunities to have a seat at the table and their voices heard. http://www.capradio.org/articles/2017/10/13/governor-jerry-brown-signs-off-on-eight-womens-caucus-bills/ Visit my website to learn more: https://a45.asmdc.org/press-releases/assemblymember-dababneh-joins-californias-legislative-womens-caucus-and-governor

Come visit the Sherman Oaks street fair this weekend with tens of thousands of your fellow neighbors. Be sure to stop by the animal adoption area to rescue those in need of a family.

Last week a plan to convert a winter shelter in nearby Sylmar to year-round housing for homeless women was approved. This is one more positive step the County is taking to provide for those in need.

With the recent outbreaks of wild fires burning and devastating many communities throughout California and it being National Fire Prevention, I want to make sure you know proper fire safety and prevention measures. In a fire, seconds can mean the difference between residents of our community escaping safely from a fire or having it end in disaster. It is important to have an escape plan in case of a home fire. Here are some ways you can make sure your family & loved ones are prepared in case of an emergency: 1) Draw a map of your home with all members and have an emergency plan. 2) Practice your home fire drill twice a year. 3) Teach children how to escape on their own in case you can’t help. 4) Make sure the number of your home is clearly marked so the fire department can find it. 5) Close doors behind as you leave – this may slow the spread of smoke, heat, and fire. 6) Once outside, stay outside. Never go back inside a burning building.
