Today, as fires rage across our state, our local news outlets are working 24/7 provide their communities with real-time information on risk. This is the work they do every single day, said Assemblywoman Rubio. I’m gratified that my colleagues in the Senate recognize the critical importance of preserving community and ethnic newspapers and providing a lifeline to help them financially stabilize and adopt new delivery models.

As neighbors and valued members of our communities, local journalists and news organizations are uniquely equipped to report quickly on the issues that matter most to their readers--something that has become even more crucial as we grapple with both a pandemic and raging wildfires throughout our state, said Assemblymember Tim Grayson (D-Concord), a principal co-author on the bill. AB 323 will help keep local newspapers afloat and their reporting possible, and I'm thrilled that my colleagues in the Senate recognized that today.
