Amazing work from our MA team getting this historic piece of legislation to the Governor’s desk and signed!
Historic moment with the signing of AB2222. This wouldn’t have been possible without the efforts of @ChrisWardCA @BuffyWicks @jerrymcnerney and the 2/3rds of the legislature whose support we needed to pass this bill. Thank you to @CAgovernor for recognizing the significance of signing this legislation at a time when the loss of local independent newsrooms is threatening government oversight and accountability, leaving communities without critical reporting.View quoted post on X
The force behind this whole movement is the amazing team behind @Rebuild_News under the leadership of @stevenwaldman. We’ve had many major partners like @sagaftra and newsrooms and broadcasters from across the country all supporting this effort. Thank you to all of them.
I look forward to other states following CA’s leadership!
