There’s a green button for “aye” and a red button for “no” on Concord Assembly member Anamarie Ávila Farías’ desk. Fred Greaves / CalMatters Assembly member Anamarie Ávila Farías on the Assembly floor during session at the state Capitol in Sacramento, on Jan. 23, 2025. They include Republican Assembly member Kate Sanchez of Orange County, north state Republican Sen. Megan Dahle, Democratic Sen. Eloise Gómez Reyes of San Bernardino, Democratic Assembly member Rebecca Bauer-Kahan of San Ramon and Democratic Assembly member Stephanie Nguyen of Elk Grove. Bauer-Kahan sent an emailed statement that said of her 299 missed votes, more than 200 were due to excused absences. Her office didn’t answer questions about whether the public should be able to more easily determine if their lawmakers missed votes because they weren’t there.
