Jesse Gabriel proudly represents the San Fernando Valley in the California State Legislature. As Chair of the Assembly Budget Committee, he works closely with legislative leadership and the Governor to craft California’s state budget, advance key policy initiatives, and direct hundreds of billions of dollars in state spending.
Recognized by The Sacramento Bee as a “California Influencer,” Jesse has authored more than fifty new laws and established himself as a champion for children, working families, small businesses, reproductive freedom, gun safety, and the environment. His legislative record includes multiple first-in-the-nation measures – including the California Food Safety Act, the Real Food, Healthy Kids Act, the California Victims of Crime Act, and the Gun Violence Prevention & School Safety Act – that have shaped federal policy and inspired similar legislation across more than 30 states.
Jesse also serves as Co-Chair of the California Legislative Jewish Caucus, where he has led statewide efforts to combat antisemitism, strengthen hate crimes laws, and unite diverse communities in the fight against hate and bigotry of all forms.
