The late Steve Jobs once noted, “Things don’t have to change the world to be important.” He could have been speaking about California’s ambitious tech project known as FI$Cal. This new technology system will not change the world, but it is changing the way California State government operates and tracks trillions of dollars flowing through accounts each year.

Once again, tax filing season is upon us. Which means that now is a good time to look into qualifying for federal and state earned income tax credits that can put cash back in your pocket.
Dear Fiona,
I am excited and pleased to hear about the actions you have taken to urge CalSTRS to divest from fossil fuels. Is there anything I can do as a private citizen to offer support of this endeavor? Keep up the great work!

Dear Erin,
Treasurer Ma accompanies UC Davis Health Vice Chancellor of Human Health Sciences and CEO David Lubarsky on a tour of the UC Davis Children’s Surgery Center. The center was built and opened in 2018 with funds from the California Health Facilities Financing Authority (CHFFA). The 20,000-square-foot pediatric facility spans two floors and features state-of-the-art technology. It is the first hospital on the West Coast to be verified a Level I Children’s Surgery Center by the American College of Surgeons (ACS).
Dear Friends,

This new technology system will not change the world, but it is changing the way California State government operates and tracks trillions of dollars flowing through accounts each year.
