SACRAMENTO – Assemblymember Mary Hayashi (D–Hayward) announced today that her office has launched a new webpage on her official Assembly website that will allow constituents to review a comprehensive list of resources provided by California state agencies.

“This webpage should help anyone looking for a particular service in their community,” Assemblymember Hayashi said. “There are 170 resource links that offer valuable information such as how to prevent identity theft, how to apply for a FasTrak toll device, and how you can receive free cash for college. These wonderful links range from applying for a driver’s license to registering to vote and everything else in between. It’s my hope that residents of the 18th District will benefit from this webpage in order to access a vast array of services available to them.”

To visit the new webpage log on to Assemblymember Hayashi’s official homepage at www.assembly.ca.gov/hayashi and click on the State Resources Websites link. This will lead web browsers to a list of service-based websites. From there click on any of the service links and be directed to the appropriate state agency’s website.

Assemblymember Hayashi noted that a member of her own staff used the webpage to connect a particular California Department of Insurance website where he found an insurance company offering a much better rate for his auto insurance. The staff member now saves over $700 on his annual auto insurance bill with much greater coverage.

“Whether you’re looking for tips to save on prescriptions or attempting to find the nearest recycling center, this new webpage is a convenient and comprehensive resource. I hope everyone living in my district will visit the new webpage and discover information that will make their lives more enjoyable,” Hayashi concluded.

Hayashi serves the 18th Assembly District, which includes San Leandro, Hayward, Dublin, most of Castro Valley and Pleasanton, and a portion of Oakland, as well as the unincorporated areas of Ashland, Cherryland and San Lorenzo.
