Newsom has been called one of “the most pro-Latino governors” which some point to as a driving force behind this recall. But will #Latinx voters help keep him in office?

The board for Tucson’s largest school district @tucsonunified will hold an emergency meeting Wed. morning at 7:30 a.m. and immediately go into executive to discuss potential litigation over Arizona’s HB 2898–a law signed by @dougducey that prohibits mask mandates at schools.

Hoy ha sido un día dictatorial en El Salvador. Hubo otros y habrá más.

U.S. companies pay the low wages that create extreme poverty in Mexico.

Americans buy the drugs that fuel extreme violence in Mexico.

Crime feeds off poverty in a vicious cycle that's destroying our southern neighbor.

@julito77 @ElFaroEnglish I am saddened and frightened for the country as Bukele’s actions grow more and more egregious. It shows how quickly these actions - similar to what Trump did/was trying to do in the U.S. can destroy a more fragile democracy.

@julito77 @ElFaroEnglish I had the honor and life-changin experience of working with the journalists of @_elfaro_ when I lived in El Salvador. This news outlet has long been dedicated to telling the truth of what’s happening there, risking their lives to do so.

@samsanders I love, love, love this! CVS is always plays some good tunes!

Poner en cadena nacional una reunión privada con embajadores lanza un mensaje muy preocupante de parte de Bukele: me importa un carajo la comunidad internacional. Eso, poco a poco, nos va dejando aislados en el país con un autócrata en el poder.

Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele’s message to the international community after the new legislative assembly replaced the country’s 5 constitutional court judges: “We are cleaning our house and this is not your concern.”

Tamaulipas won't take migrants families back so US flies them to El Paso and sends them across to the border to Juarez. Most arrive not knowing where they have been taken.

The pandemic didn't slow the flow of illegal drugs into the U.S. How did traffickers work around the border restrictions? They hired more Americans.

"The work undocumented farmworkers do is essential because without their contribution, there would be a food shortage."

Q: How can we honor our immigrant essential workers?
A: Provide a path to citizenship, worker protections, & access to healthcare.

America’s double standards on full display when a U.S. senator can freely cross into Mexico during a pandemic & treat his family to a resort vacation while millions of Mexicans are prohibited from freely crossing into the U.S. to see their families because of that same pandemic.

Almost half of California family child care providers haven't been able to pay themselves at some point during the pandemic and 22% missed a rent or mortgage payment, according to a survey from the @CSCCEUCB. https://t.co/6Fne6yru5D

And with Vice President @KamalaHarris casting the crucial tie-breaking vote, at 5:30am after 14 hours of debate, the Senate has passed a $1.9 trillion budget for COVID relief. Georgia voters made this possible.

[Kate Sheehy @khsheehy]

@mariana_dale @KPCC @LAist You should absolutely do that.
