“There is a very scary environment right now,” Mangia said. “But someone had to step up and defend Medicaid and the basic healthcare it provides for so many people. We weren’t going to let this happen without a fight.”Jim Mangia, St.John’s Community Health latimes.com/politics/story/2…
So proud of my home state. A proud Californian and Los Angeleno! 👏👏👏👏 @CAgovernor
NEW: According to the IMF's 2024 World Economic Outlook data released yesterday and BEA data, California’s nominal GDP reached $4.1 trillion, surpassing Japan’s $4.02 trillion, and placing California as the 4th largest economy — behind only the United States, China, and Germany.
Not only did it grow to be the 4th largest, California’s economy grew at a faster rate than the world’s top three economies in 2024: California's growth rate of 6% outpaced the U.S. (5.3%), China (2.6%) and Germany (2.9%).
However, that success is now being threatened by the reckless tariff policies of the current federal administration.
That's why @CAGovernor Newsom filed a lawsuit that seeks to end President Trump’s tariff chaos, which has wreaked havoc on the economy, destabilized the stock and bond markets, caused hundreds of billions of dollars in losses, and inflicted higher costs for consumers and businesses.
These harms will only continue to grow, as President Trump’s tariffs are projected to shrink the U.S. economy by $100 billion annually.
When Our Voice families met with @LAUSDSup in January 2025 to talk about safety concerns, the superintendent expressed concern about the current political landscape and promised that he/LAUSD would protect students. He said, “I give you my word.” He kept it.
Thank you @LAUSDSup !
