Having a mental illness is not a crime.

That’s why I introduced the Mental Health Justice Act. If enacted, trained
healthcare professionals would respond to folks experiencing a mental
health crisis rather than police. [ [link removed] ]Can you quickly add your name in
support of this legislation?

Just like if you were having a heart attack, you’d want an ambulance and a
hospital—if you’re experiencing a mental health crisis, you should receive
proper care from trained mental healthcare professionals.

Roughly a quarter of the people who are killed by law enforcement are
experiencing a mental health crisis at the time. We can’t address police
violence without talking about mental health.

I won’t BS you, the unfortunate reality is that with Kevin McCarthy and
Republicans holding the House majority, this bill doesn’t have much of a
chance at becoming law this year. But these are the types of bills I’ll
champion in the Senate, and through California alone we can flip a handful
of MAGA-held seats and give Democrats the House majority.

like this a real priority.
