.@NoraVargasSD's Board of Supervisors win is pretty significant in terms of criminal justice reform. In an Oct. 16 Q&A w/ the @sdut editorial board, she talked about why she opposes outsourcing jail medical and mental health services:
@Asm_Nazarian Is this the price you are willing to pay to limit liability? LA sheriff's department is so corrup that the sheriff himself and the undersheriff went to PRISON. Who do you stand with? #SB731 https://t.co/ry6E6gbiof
@VoteCottie you don't get to talk about heroes like Martin Luther King Jr. or John Lewis while voting no on the most important civil rights bill of our time. #SB731
57 years after the #MarchOnWashington, the fight for justice and equality continues on. In honor of heroes like Martin Luther Kinh Jr. and @repjohnlewis we must continue our peaceful work towards a more perfect union.
@vinnyeng@AsmMikeGipson@GavinNewsom Anyone can pledge a vote when they know it's not going to come up for a vote and it will die at midnight tonight. It's an empty gesture
@Rendon63rd People are literally dying on the streets while you play political games. A man was shot 20 times in LA by the sheriffs while you were hiding. You are holding up this vote knowing that it will die at midnight. Do your job.
Family, I’m with you in this fight. As the peoples' voice in #AD64, I am proud to support #SB731. We need justice and we need #policereform - and we need it now. Join me.
@Evan_Low You don't get to talk about a civil rights icon and national treasure John Lewis while voting no on California's most important civil rights bill. #SB731#yesonsb731 Stop talking about civil rights. Period.
"Get out there and push, speak out and get in the way the same way my generation got it the way. Get in trouble. Good trouble. Necessary trouble." - @repjohnlewis ❤️ #VOTE
@kylekuzma While we are being honest, @AsmMuratsuchi@AsmEdChau@KansenChu@Evan_Low you don't get to decry racism when it is directed at Asians then turn a blind eye when our brothers and sisters are getting killed at the hands of the police. #SB731
Please call @AsmMikeGipson and ask him why he is working AGAINST SB731! moderate and sensible police reform in CA. He represents Compton and Watts and is obviously representing special interests and not the PEOPLE.
His numbers are (310)324-6408
And (916) 319-2064. Let’s do this
No, @AsmEdChau you don't get to take the moral high ground and call for an end to racism when you don't stand with our black and brown brothers and sisters against police violence. #yesonsb731#SB731
My op-ed today in Cal Matters on the need for all of us to stand together to stop hateful acts against Asian-Americans during the COVID-19 pandemic.
