~ Sacramento, California - In a proclamation issued today, Governor Gavin Newsom declared May 2025 as "Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month" in the state of California. This proclamation recognizes the invaluable contributions of over 6 million Californians of Asian or Pacific Islander descent to the state and nation.
The text of the proclamation highlights the rich and diverse heritage of AAPI communities in California, as well as their resilience in the face of discrimination and xenophobic policies. Governor Newsom also acknowledges the historic cultural enclaves created and sustained by AAPI communities, such as Chinatown in San Francisco and Japantowns in California.
The proclamation also pays tribute to the significant role that AAPI leaders have played in shaping California's history, from arts and culture to labor rights and human rights. It emphasizes the importance of celebrating all members of the California family and working together towards a more inclusive state.

In addition to this proclamation, Governor Newsom announced a new tool called CalHeatScore that will help protect vulnerable populations from dangerous heatwaves. This groundbreaking tool provides localized warnings and resources for extreme heat events. The state has also invested $32 million to help communities combat extreme heat.
In other news, Governor Newsom made several appointments on May 28th, including LaCandice Ochoa as Deputy Director of the Independent Living and Community Access Division at the Department of Rehabilitation. Ochoa brings a wealth of experience as Dean of Students at Sacramento State University.
Governor Newsom also issued a statement on a federal court ruling that deemed President Trump's tariffs unlawful. The governor expressed his support for this decision, stating that these tariffs hurt states, consumers, and businesses.
As we celebrate Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month in May 2025, let us remember the invaluable contributions of AAPI communities to our state's history and continue working towards a more inclusive California for all.
