It's not partisan to hold all elected officials accountable to the same standards.
It's not partisan to stand up for the basic rights of all citizens, regardless of their background or beliefs.

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

Please, please, please stand up and be counted. Our future depends on it. If you're afraid, don't be. If you're too busy, don't be. Be there. Be a true patriot.

one of my takeaways from this great piece is that weiss just doesn’t…sound like an intelligent person? or at least, not someone who has thought even a little bit about how and why they think the things that they do. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gieT...

A "Kavanaugh Stop" in action — masked law enforcement agents stopping Latinos and demanding to see their papers.
In response to:
Laura N. Rodriguez Presa
On Sunday morning, federal agents arrived at Marquette Park and demanded documentation from Latinos eating at a makeshift food stand.
