RESULT: Californians have rejected a constitutional amendment that would have imposed voter ID requirements.  The measure was a priority for conservative organizers and Republican donors.

A historic night. Latino voters are crucial to building a multiracial democracy.

@AnnieCostabile @TheAthletic Loved listening to you guys break it down after every game this series. Thanks for doing this!

Seven year old me in 1997 growing up in the Bay Area could never have imagined this night. Thirty years was worth the wait. #Valkyries

"INVEST IN WOMEN'S SPORTS!" ‼️

– Tiffany Hayes had to let 'em know 👏

Bay Area, we did it!!! The Golden State @valkyries are WNBA Champions! And we only needed 2 years to do it.

“Dolores, for me and I know for a lot of people, has been a role model of how you can dedicate your life to serving others, to making other people’s lives better.” -Julián Castro, CEO of the Latino Community Foundation

[KQED News @KQEDnews]

Elected officials and civil rights leaders hailed the farmworker activist, who died at age 96, as a hero, giant and legend.

"Dolores was a force for good and a force of nature. We honor Dolores today as we believe she would have wanted: organizing, mobilizing, and affirming our power at the ballot box this November." -LCF CEO Julián Castro

From @TheAthletic: The WNBA Finals starting at 12:30 p.m. Eastern is an embarrassment, our columnist writes. "Inexcusably obtuse planning, astoundingly bad optics, and most of all a wildly crappy thing to do to the people who consume your product." https://t.co/HDqC9Vt2hb

The Valkyries’ arena has quickly become known as the best atmosphere in the WNBA. Here’s how Golden State turned “make it cool” into a basketball mecca known as Ballhalla.

From @TheAthletic: Natalie Nakase has led the Valkyries to the brink of a championship in the team's second year of existence. But her journey was unlikely. This is how a 5-foot-2 walk-on who coached in Japan reached the WNBA Finals. https://t.co/NEqdsRIESw

For all of you with an East Coast bias, half the fans have a 9:30am tip.

For government to work, the people have to trust and participate in the process.

The Trump Administration is actively trying to stop both from happening 4 years ahead of the 2030 Census count.

Thanks to @LeonKrauze for including Latino Community Foundation in his latest.

EXPULSIÓN + EXCLUSIÓN = BORRAR A MILLONES.

Esa es la inquietante ecuación que planteo en mi nueva columna para The Washington Post.

¿Qué sucede cuando las deportaciones masivas se combinan con los cambios propuestos al censo de Estados Unidos?

Millones de personas podrían ser expulsadas o, sencillamente, volverse invisibles.

In today's @HoustonChron, LCF CEO Julián Castro makes the case for Latino voter outreach beyond one election cycle.

As former Mayor of San Antonio, he knows engaging voters at the local level can inspire civic pride and year-round participation. https://t.co/2uvpMH9CuZ

[Katie Scally @KScall]

3 weeks out: Latino voters will shape the outcome of races nationwide. Thanks to @EllyDearman for covering LCF's poll on Texas Latino voters.

“Latinos want real solutions on affordability,” said Julián Castro, the foundation’s CEO.

HISTORY CONTINUES.

In our second year, the Golden State Valkyries are heading to the @WNBA finals.

See you Saturday, Ballhalla ⚔️
