A few days ago, Assemblymember Ash Kalra introduced a bill that would establish the California Golden Chanterelle as the official state mushroom. Yup. No kidding.
According to the text of AB261: “This bill would establish the California Golden Chanterelle (Cantharellus californicus) as the official state mushroom.”
According to a reliable Sacramento source, Kalra is taking the lead on this issue for personal reasons. Even though there are more important issues in the state, Kalra wants to be known as a “fungi.”

Karla is such a waste of a Congressman. With all that’s happening in politics, economy, culture wars, world wars, etc – is this all he has to think about?? Mike Honda was 100% better.
Man, put your glasses on.
Kalra not Karla.
State assemblyman.
Glad he isn’t Santa Clara’s.
I would nominate gavin but he is the one keeping us in the dark and feeding us BS.
He must of smoked a few of the shrooms with Becker. Messed up his head. Just like his bad hair plugs.this is what we’re paying politicians to do? 🙄
Shroom. You get a cigar. You hit it. Kalra endorsed and raised money for Becker.

Kalra received over 25 grand from 49ers over the past decade.
That explains ALOT!
What a joke.
Labor flunky.
How many other dingdonngs have taken $$$ from the 49ers or been elected with their $$$ like the 49er 5? Jed throws $$$ everywhere. DUI Kalra isn’t the only idiot. Even our Guvner Gav has. Everybody is sale for the right price. Government sucks at all levels.
