Nearly 30 percent of Californians live in or near poverty, according to @PPICNotes. If the state enters a recession this year, poverty will certainly spike. This is NOT the time to make cuts to the state's safety net. #CABudget#CALeg
Y'all keep saying comments nah it was a whole entire racist conversation with no breaks and no chasers. It sounded like what I imagine Klan meetings sound like when discussing Black children, criminal justice reform, and voting.
I spent a decade in Stockton doing cross racial Black-Brown organizing and governing and the work was hard but necessary. The enemy is structural and insidious ideas like white supremacy, That's where the fight and focus should be always
@GavinNewsom@cagovernor#AB503 gives judges discretion to respond to youth’s needs on a case-by-case basis. Our kids need us to #EndEndlessProbation so we can give them the attention and support they deserve.
@GavinNewsom@cagovernor we’re calling on you to support California youth by signing #AB503. Our kids need a juvenile justice system centered around care and compassion, not punishment.
#AB503 helps shift our juvenile justice system from one centered around punishment to one based on care. Join us in supporting CA youth #EndEndlessProbation

Things I learned from the Manti Te’o documentary.
1. The media owes him an apology.
