## Resource

In this episode of Coffee Culture and the Capitol, Sophia Lorey and Greg Burt break down some of the most significant battles unfolding at the California State Capitol. First, they discuss the growing controversy over male athletes competing in girls' sports following the CIF State Track and Field Championships and share highlights from California Family Council's press conference defending fairness and safety for female athletes. Next, they examine ACA 7, a proposed constitutional amendment that would weaken Proposition 209's ban on race-based preferences in public education. Sophia and Greg unpack the heated committee debate and what the measure could mean for California schools. Finally, they cover AB 1973, legislation that would allow nurse practitioners, certified nurse-midwives, and physician assistants to perform second- and third-trimester abortions. Hear testimony from a former abortionist and medical professionals who warned lawmakers about the serious risks this bill poses to women. Plus, learn how you can make your voice heard through CFC's upcoming Lobby Day at the State Capitol.
