Governor Brown has signed Senator Jackson's SB 834, which effectively blocks a federal expansion of offshore oil drilling in California waters.

Joined by lawmakers, advocates, and families, Senator Jackson urged passage of her bills to close the gender and race wage gap and combat sexual harassment in the workplace.

Governor Brown signed legislation by Senator Hannah-Beth Jackson to prevent domestic violence homicides by training law enforcement officers to identify domestic abuse victims whose lives are in danger and connect them with local support services.

Recognizing her work to address pesticides, protect marine wildlife, block new offshore oil, and keep pharmaceuticals out of our water, Green California recently honored Senator Jackson as a bold environmental leader.  

Sen. Hannah-Beth Jackson joined Assemblywoman Monique Limon, state and local officials for a hearing on wildfire prevention and recovery. She discussed her SB 1260 to prevent wildfires, SB 821 to improve emergency communications, and SB 917 to protect homeowners who lost their home in fire-induced mudslides.

Senator Jackson joined members of the California National Guard, CalOES, the Santa Barbara County Sheriff's Office and the California Highway Patrol for an aerial tour of the devastated areas of Montecito and surrounding communities in Santa Barbara County as a result of recent mudslides.
