Keeping Our Community Safe

• Assemblymember Jacqui Irwin understands the importance of feeling safe in our homes, schools, streets, and places of worship. Under Jacqui’s leadership, Thousand Oaks was ranked number one in California and number four in the country among safest places to live according to the FBI.

• Jacqui has secured over $13 million in funding for local law enforcement to remove guns from violent felons who are prohibited from possessing firearms.

• She has authored multiple laws to expand the use of Gun Violence Restraining Orders, used by law enforcement and families to remove firearms from dangerous individuals and situations.

• This year she passed a law to make it easier to prosecute “smash-and-grab” Organized Retail Theft that crosses city and county lines. Jacqui has also supported grant programs in the State Budget to provide security upgrades for places of worship.
