Federal food assistance has resumed for thousands of Santa Cruz County residents after a shutdown-related disruption in early November, with local agencies scrambling to fill gaps through pop-up food pantries and expanded food bank operations.

Sometimes workers comp claims adjusters send letters saying they are closing their file and it is confusing to the injured worker. If that happens to you, call our office and ask for a free consultation with one of our attorneys or hearing representative. 831-753-9127

Wasting a COUPLE OF BILLION of taxpayer dollars on a silly name change for a department that’s already bloated, wasteful, & can’t pass an audit is a fitting symbol of the Trump administration.

Catalina “Xóchitl” Santiago spent nearly two months in ICE detention—despite having protection under DACA—until a federal judge ruled that the government had no reason to keep her in custody and ordered her release.

DHS is still vowing to "explore every available option to remove" her. My latest:
Then they came for the Dreamers
Immigrants brought here as children were told they wouldn’t be deported. Now, they’re being targeted anyway.

⚠️ Be aware: ICE plans to pay private contractors to monitor social media 24/7, scanning platforms like TikTok, Instagram, Reddit, WhatsApp & X for “enforcement leads.”

Everyday posts could be fed into ICE databases & cross-referenced w/ phone data, biometrics & property records 🧵

Government shutdowns come with real consequences: limited air traffic safety oversight, federal workers aren't paid, SNAP funding issues and much more.

Meanwhile, Trump is building a ballroom and ramping long-term efforts to fire civil servants.

This is NOT okay.

A grape harvest crew sets the freshly picked grapes out to dry. Without the intense summer heat, the humidity during fall and winter poses a different challenge. It is vital to ensure the fruit is dry before being packed in boxes and shipped all around the world. #WeFeedYou

Did you know you do not have to stick with the workers comp clinic that the employer sends you to after you get injured? The workers comp insurance carrier usually has a medical provider network that has more than that one clinic and you can change doctors! Our office can help find you a new doc!

Reminder: The 22nd Amendment prohibits anyone from being elected president more than twice.

"Probably not" is not an okay answer for something that is explicitly blocked by the constitution.

Trump couldn't care less about the Constitution he swore an oath to protect.

During a recent raid, 300+ farmworkers were detained by ICE & National Guard agents, & 57‑year‑old Jaime Alanís Garcia became the first known fatality during these recent Trump-era raids.

Why Did This Farmworker Die in an Immigration Raid?
With Trump and Stephen Miller cheering on ICE’s terror tactics, Jaime Alanis Garcia’s fatal fall in the raid on Glass House Farms was the most recent example of a death foretold.

Many California counties divide communities into zones. Evacuation orders are given by zone, meaning only certain areas are asked to leave at a time.

Knowing your zone means you can:
✔ Leave faster
✔ Avoid dangerous routes
✔ Keep your loved ones safe
✔ Help first responders do their job

These CA Central Coast strawberry workers are in a field that is full of weeds. This means there aren't as many strawberries to picked and the harvesting process is a lot slower, so they are paid by the hour. #WeFeedYou

Trump signed away our federal lands to the oil, gas, and coal industries.

The budget bill gives polluters everything they want while destroying support for clean energy.

He's rolled out the red carpet for Big Oil and Coal to destroy our planet.
