[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Last government shutdown cost us $24B and 120,000 jobs.

This is not something to play politics with.

This is people’s ability to pay their mortgage. Buy their kids Christmas presents. Put food on their table. It’s 800,000 lives being thrown into chaos -- over a pointless wall.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

This shutdown is not something to be “proud” of. It’s an avoidable and manufactured crisis -- based off a wall that will be nothing more than a monument of stupidity.

It will disrupt hundreds of thousands of lives.

It’s an embarrassment.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Asking to be considered a refugee & applying for status isn’t a crime.

It wasn’t for Jewish families fleeing Germany.
It wasn’t for targeted families fleeing Rwanda.
It wasn’t for communities fleeing war-torn Syria.
And it isn’t for those fleeing violence in Central America.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

Paradise, CA.

We mourn with you. We stand with you.

@HardballChris please tell the mayor of Chico CA to suggest @POTUS send the troops home from the border and send their tents, cots, portable showers and latrines to Chico to provide temporary housing for fire victims, send a portable medical clinic also! #CampFireSmoke #CampFire

For that matter what is being done to educate residents about precautions they should be taking? Still so few wearing masks. And most stores are sold out. Would love to see the city getting the word out. Flyers in biz windows at least? #CAFires

[Erin Palmquist @erinpalmquist]

.@LibbySchaaf is something being done to support people living on the street as we near hazardous air quality? Are there distribution centers for masks?

“There were many people who weren’t willing to be on camera. It was quite a risk for people & still continues to be, but Ghazwan was so determined because he wanted a voice for his story as part of his healing process..
