SACRAMENTO – Assembly Republican Leader James Gallagher (Yuba City) celebrated Sen. Marie Alvarado-Gil’s announcement that she has joined the Republican Party and will caucus with Republicans in the Legislature.

“I’d like to welcome Sen. Alvarado-Gil to the Republican Caucus as we fight for common-sense solutions to the crime, homelessness and inflation plaguing our state. Californians are rejecting the increasingly radical agenda of Legislative Democrats and I am confident our Republican Caucus will continue to grow as a result. We welcome all Democrats who have decided that the party has become too radical and too costly for everyday Californians.”
