Tune into Fox News (don't, actually) and you will see a steady stream of Trump sycophants alongside curious case of California Derangement Syndrome.
But here are some cold, hard FACTS you will never see on the network.
🆙 Prices are not, down ... they are UP.
☕️ Coffee: UP 18.9%
🛜 Utilities: UP 11.7%
💡Electricity: UP 5.1%
🚗 Vehicles: UP 11.5%
💰 Middle class families in California pay LESS in taxes than in states like Texas, Oklahoma, and Arkansas.
🔴 Life expectancy, infant mortality, deaths of despair, wages and uninsured rates are all worse off in red states.
🚨 For Greg Abbott and Texas Republicans talking trash: California is the fourth largest economy in the WORLD. We contribute $83 billion to the federal government while Texas takes $71 billion.
🥇 California is #1 in manufacturing, #1 in farming, #1 in new business starts, #1 in tech and VC investments, #1 in Fortune 500 companies, and the #1 public higher education system in the country.
👨👩👧👧 California has some of the strongest gun laws in the country and as a result has a 43% lower gun death rate than the rest of the U.S. according to data from the CDC while President Trump oversaw the largest spike in homicides recorded in U.S. history.
😡 Republicans across the country are fanning the flames of culture wars to distract from the fact that on health, wealth, and economic outcomes they are failing.
🗳️ When Democrats go on OFFENSE, we WIN.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!

ℹ️ To my fellow Democrats — don't scroll past this. 🇺🇸
I have a book coming out in a few weeks. It's called "Young Man in a Hurry." It's a good book. Very personal. At the same time, we just spent a bunch of money on passing Prop 50, so now I need to refill that coffers at my Campaign for Democracy for the fights ahead
If you make a contribution of ANY AMOUNT, I'll send you a copy of my new book when it comes out. The average cost per book is $22.45 including shipping. If you can give that, great. If you can only give $5, great. If you want to cover the cost for a few folks who can only give a few bucks, great.
