Assemblywoman Autumn Burke’s Statement on SCOTUS Ruling Against Women’s Health Rights in NIFLA v Becerra

Sacramento, CA – We politely asked Crisis Pregnancy Centers to lie less and that didn’t work, so I guess we are going to have to be a little less polite about it.

As a mother and a legislator I’m proud of California’s history of guaranteeing a woman’s right to her reproductive choices and access to a basic level of health care, but that right is an empty promise if she lacks the ability to obtain care and services, or if the provider she’s trusting to care for her doesn’t provide information about all of her health care options.

Plans to Battle Trump’s Tax Plan

Assemblywoman Autumn R. Burke (D-Marina del Rey) was appointed Chair of the California State Assembly Committee on Revenue and Taxation by Speaker Anthony Rendon.

“My colleagues and I will get to work on offsetting the damage done by the President and Congressional Republicans,” said Burke. “We will be looking at various options to ensure that all Californians would be able to obtain some tax relief and in doing so, provide a real, sustainable solution. I am honored to serve as Chair of the Revenue and Taxation committee. I appreciate Speaker Rendon’s trust and support to lead this committee at such a critical time for our state.”
