A young Black couple just had a baby at home. LAPD showed up, guns drawn on the father and his newborn baby! They were criminalized for giving birth. I am sick of us not being seen as autonomous beings. SICK!!!

14 million ppl voted for @JoeBiden , overwhelmingly earning him the nomination for President and @KamalaHarris for VP. The most undemocratic thing to do is to invalidate those votes bc you don't like the Black woman on the ticket. It's a they. It's NOT a him. #BidenHarris2024

On the floor now for the 14th and possibly the last Speaker vote. It feels eerie on the floor. McCarthy sold away Congress for his own gain, and you can feel the glee and peril. Oh, will we have to fight to protect Lady Democracy.

While salaries start January 3rd, freshman members don't get a PAYCHECK until February. That goes for new staff as well; and the rent and utilities are still due. These are extra financial burdens for so many that live check to check. Unaffordability in this country is REAL!

Most Californians oppose killing bobcats for pleasure. My bill to ban the #trophyhunting of CA's elusive and majestic cat passed out of its last committee (woo hoo!) and will now head to the Senate for a vote. Then we're over to @GavinNewsom 's desk! #RoarForAB1254 #CaLeg

Long probation terms are more harmful than helpful. Our system minimizes access to support while maximizing scrutiny & punishment. Meant to reduce recidivism, probation has become a pipeline for re-entry into prison. The Assembly will vote on #AB1950 , probation reform, today!

What’s the hold up, people???   We need #PaidSickDaysNOW .   We are creating a cycle of health care violence by not taking care of the people who take care of us.

If I look confused and upset, it's because I am. People who have done their time are funding a system that is more invested in self perpetuation than in rehabilitation. Extended imprisonment because someone is indigent is inhumane.
