“On behalf of California’s 483 cities, congratulations to Governor-elect Xavier Becerra,” said Cal Cities Executive Director and CEO Carolyn Coleman. “Cities are the heartbeat of California — the level of government closest to the people.

We look forward to working with the new administration from day one to ensure cities have a seat at the table and the tools to deliver for all Californians.”
