Join us as we read and discuss books that impact and reflect on the California experience – past, present and future – and how it informs the work of the State Legislature. We’ll delve into a broad range of topics about our state, such as our immigration stories, the history of our development and business patterns, and water and transportation policy. And, of course, the people behind it all. 

The book we’re reading now is The High Sierra: A Love Story by Kim Stanley Robinson. It’s about the author’s lifelong connection with California's Sierra Nevada mountains. Through over 100 visits, he explores the region's geology, history and conservation efforts, intertwining these with his personal experiences. The book offers practical hiking advice and insights into the transformative power of nature, aiming to inspire readers to appreciate and engage with this majestic landscape.
