Irwin, State Assembly Honor Cyber Innovation Challenge Winners

(Sacramento) – Assemblymember Jacqui Irwin (D-Thousand Oaks) joined with the rest of the State Assembly in honoring four teams of high school students who won the California Cyber Innovation Challenge, a state-level cyber security championship, sponsored by the California governor’s Go-Biz office. “It’s absolutely critical that we think about security FIRST,” said Assemblymember Irwin. “Even when you’re talking about the “internet of things” – you need to think about how to make the “internet of things” secure.” Here’s more from Assemblymember Irwin and some of the students in this Assembly Access video.

Op-Ed: Even the Playing Field for Community College Students

Earlier this summer, students across California accomplished their dream of a college degree. But for every person who graduates, there are thousands who don’t.

New bill will make it possible to get married on Saturday

Why drive to Vegas?

For $143—$98 for the marriage license and $45 for the actual ceremony—a couple can get hitched quickly and inexpensively during the week at the Ventura County clerk’s office.

And now, as a result of Assemblymember Jacqui Irwin’s (D-Camarillo) new bill, Saturday ceremonies will likely make a comeback.

Judges can start charging for weekend weddings again

The ban on compensating California judges for performing weekend weddings has ended, possibly clearing the way for Saturday nuptials to be restarted at the county government complex in Ventura.

Gov. Jerry Brown signed a bill Monday that immediately restores the opportunity for judges to charge nominal fees for officiating at weddings on weekends or holidays.
