Watch: Lawmaker brings newborn baby to state assembly floor for a bill she ‘strongly believes’ in
California Assemblywoman Buffy Wicks was in the middle of feeding her four-week-old daughter, Elly, when the homelessness bill vote came up on Monday night.
Asm. @BuffyWicks rushing to the Capitol to support #SB1120, statewide duplexes, with her month-old daughter strapped to her chest, only to have the bill die on a midnight technicality, is the perfect example of how broken California governance is.
