Having more representation within campaigns is important to understanding that, said Jeung.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are seeing a range of different political views, and that, to me, shows the maturation of the community. You can’t just talk about the stereotypical Asian vote,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For many Chinese American voters, Supervisor Chan said, improving public safety isn’t about simply increasing police budgets or policies around harsher prosecutions. Often, she said, people’s general well-being — like the ability to pay the bills, access healthcare, walk on clean streets, attend good schools — shape feelings and conversations around safety and are part of solutions voters want to see.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“What they consider as a safety issue is not just about incarceration or prosecution. It’s actually really more of a day-to-day, like, do I feel safe? Can I go shopping?

In the just-concluded regular legislative session, the San Ramon Democrat and her colleagues instead battled a \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2024/08/california-conservatives-fight-back/\">surging rebellion from conservative California communities\u003c/a> against the state’s liberal governance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On issues including abortion access, election rules and LGBTQ rights, Democrats in Sacramento passed legislation this year to stifle emerging local policies that they argued undermine the state’s commitment to diversity, civil rights and other progressive values.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In certain ways, we have the right to hold the line for our constituencies,” said \u003ca href=\"https://digitaldemocracy.calmatters.org/legislators/rebecca-bauer-kahan-165035\">Bauer-Kahan\u003c/a>, who compared the relationship between the Legislature and local governments to a system of checks and balances. “And I think that’s what we’re doing right now — we’re checking them.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Tensions over local control are nothing new in California politics, as anyone who has followed decades of debate about land use and housing development can attest.

When a Riverside County school board refused to adopt the state-approved curriculum because it referenced assassinated LGBTQ rights activist Harvey Milk, Gov. Gavin Newsom threatened to send the textbook directly to students and bill the district, which then reversed course. Legislators \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/education/k-12-education/2023/09/california-book-bans/\">subsequently passed a law\u003c/a> to penalize school boards that ban books because they include the history or culture of LGBTQ people and other diverse groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Legislature also approved, and Newsom signed, a measure to \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/explainers/new-california-laws/#c2120155-fc6a-4c1b-9323-6291c4b1efd8\">limit when local governments can count ballots by hand\u003c/a>, after Shasta County canceled its contract with a voting machine company because of \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/politics/2024/06/shasta-county-election-administration/\">unfounded election fraud claims\u003c/a> pushed by Trump and his allies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A spate of legislation has followed this year, most controversially \u003ca href=\"https://digitaldemocracy.calmatters.org/bills/ca_202320240ab1955?slug=CA_202320240AB1955\">Assembly Bill 1955\u003c/a> by Assemblymember \u003ca href=\"https://digitaldemocracy.calmatters.org/legislators/christopher-ward-35497\">Chris Ward\u003c/a>, a San Diego Democrat, which \u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/education/k-12-education/2024/07/trans-youth-california/\">prevents school districts from alerting parents\u003c/a> when a student starts identifying as another gender.
