“As a lifelong Californian who was raised in a rural community, I have gained tremendous respect for the ranching way of life. Cattlemen and cattlewomen are good stewards of their communities, their land and their livestock,” Dawn said. “I work with CCA members to carry this message throughout the halls of the State Capitol, and to continue to protect and promote the ranching heritage, which ensures an unparalleled product to the people of the state, the nation and the world.”
