Senator Rosilicie Ochoa Bogh, who represents California’s 23rd Senate District, recently posted a series of messages encouraging public participation in upcoming legislative hearings. The tweets primarily focus on bills #SB1061, #SB1062, and #SB1603, which are scheduled to be discussed in the Senate Natural Resources and Water Committee.
On April 10, 2026, Senator Ochoa Bogh wrote: “#SB1061, #SB1062 and #SB1603 will be heard in the Senate Natural Resources and Water Committee on April 21 upon adjournment of the Senate Emergency Management Committee in Sacramento, and we’re asking supporters to attend committee and submit letters of support.”
In a subsequent post on the same day, she highlighted avenues for public input: “The Senate welcomes public participation! You can submit comments by email or through the Advocacy Portal: https://t.co/XsSyAU71Oa. #WJTCA #SD19 #WesternJoshuaTree”
Senator Ochoa Bogh further emphasized different ways constituents can get involved: “You can make a difference:
– Submit a letter of support
– Attend the hearing and express your support during the “me too” portion
In-person support is powerful, but if you can’t attend, written letters are just as important and still make your voice heard.” (April 10, 2026).
California’s legislative process allows members of the public to participate by submitting comments or letters regarding pending legislation. These contributions may influence committee discussions or outcomes. The referenced bills—#SB1061, #SB1062, and #SB1603—are set for consideration in committees responsible for natural resources policy. Public engagement is commonly encouraged during these stages.
