On #FarmWorkerAppreciationDay let's do more than just thank farm workers.

Please consider making a donation to the UFW. Together let’s do all we can to not let the heat turn deadly for farm workers.

"Adan" is harvesting onions in Fresno county. We begin working at 4pm. "It is extremely hot at that time - at times the temperature is 100°. We earn $1.50 per sack which can weigh up to 70 lb. It takes three bucket of onions to fill a sack. " #WeFeedYou

My office secured over 280,000 eggs for families across Rochester after major egg producers ran an illegal scheme to raise the price of eggs to line their own pockets.

The law is clear: price fixing of any kind will not be tolerated in New York.

Contrary to tabloid reports…I mean lies. Poh on Meghan.

"Joel" shares, "We're staking young apple trees, tying them to support them against the wind in Parker WA. We're wearing masks as protection from the polluted air, but it's still bad. I leave with a headache and very irritated eyes. The AQI is 189. I earn min. wage." #WeFeedYou

“Gustavo” is harvesting mangoes in Coachella, CA. “This is very hard work. We start before dawn, but temps are already near 100° while we’re working. It’s physical labor, and it’s hard to do in this kind of heat.” Today’s high in Coachella is forecast to reach 109°. #WeFeedYou

"Adan" sent this from Wapato WA where he's thinning grapevines at a non-union farm. "I earn WA minimum wage. The air quality is terrible now, but we still have to work. The rancher didn't provide me with a mask. My phones' weather app says the AQI is
unhealthy at 182." #WeFeedYou

Donald Trump is in California today for a fundraiser at his golf course.

But he still REFUSES to deliver the federal wildfire disaster aid he promised to Los Angeles wildfire survivors.

Instead, we've watched a presidency defined by corruption, self-dealing, and family enrichment at the expense of the American people.

California keeps America running. We send far more to Washington than we get back.

Stop stiffing Californians, Mr. President. Keep your word.

Billionaires are getting richer, while the rest of us struggle.

The only reason Donald Trump should come to California is to deliver a $15 billion check to help us rebuild & recover from last year's fires.

Joe Biden had a bad debate. Approximately 765 stories and opinion pieces in the NYTimes.

Donald Trump had 300 bank accounts closed because of evidence of money laundering. Nothing to see here, says the same NYTimes.

Do we even need senators? Mitch McConnell has been dead for 52 days and it hasn’t made a difference.

"Martin" is thinning apples at a non-union work site in Parker WA. Due to wildfire smoke, there is a 175 "unhealthy" AQI. He is earning WA minimum wage. #WeFeedYou

[United Farm Workers @UFWupdates]

Farm workers: there's a heat advisory across much of CA. Please be careful. Your life comes first. If your worksite is not offering WATER, SHADE, and REST - call the farm worker heat safety hotline at 1-877-881-8281. Reporting heat safety violations saves workers' lives.

[United Farm Workers @UFWupdates]

"Rena" sent this from Moses Lake WA where she is weeding carrots for a non-union company. She shared: The air is bad. See my cell phone. The AQI is 166, which is unhealthy. We start at 4am. We'll work 7-8 hrs & earn minimum wage. #WeFeedYou

Roma tomato harvesting crew in Los Banos CA. It takes longer to fill a roma bucket vs round tomatoes, so the crew spends more time bent over, working in the hot, trapped humidity of the plant rows. The heat wears them out as they carry full 50lb buckets to the trailer. #WeFeedYou

Bay Area friends: would you consider opening your home to these two cuddly cats? A friend found them behind a gas station. Their sibling, a black cat, got adopted, but it appears no one likes orange cats. They are being kept in a bathroom for the time being and need a home.

The larynx, trachea, neck and spine are all needed to find the cause of death. There is a reason why all those parts were not returned for the second autopsy.

Say his name. Nolan Wells. RIP.

It’s been 1 month since Nolan Wells was murdered and there’s still 0 arrests.
