While we are waiting to hear from the Secretary of State's office about our final signature total and the amount of money we're going to need to raise to make up the difference in our filing fee, you can still contribute to our efforts by donating a few dollars. We don't have an exact number, but we do know that it will be around $800, so that's what we're shooting for until we know for sure. If you can afford to contribute a few bucks, we welcome your involvement. If you can't afford it, we certainly understand that too. Many of us can't. If you have enough that you can afford to kick in a little extra for those who can't afford it, that would be great too.

The logical result of everyone using self-check registers is that the number of employees and the number of hours that stores give to their employees will be greatly reduced. While it's true that automation is unstoppable, we can make a personal choice to not contribute to somebody's job being lost, or to a store cutting its hours so that someone cannot work full time. I have made a choice, for myself, not to use self-check registers at the store, when I go to the library or if I go out to eat. Putting people out of work, on an individual level, and contributing to inequality and a shrinking job market are not more convenient to me. If you haven't made this choice for yourself, I hope that you will think about it.

A memo obtained by the L.A. Times shows that U.S. taxpayers have been paying millions of dollars “to Guaidó and his faction… to pay for their salaries, airfare, ‘good governance’ training, propaganda, technical assistance for holding elections and other ‘democracy-building’ projects.”

When you look through some of the military spending bills, and it says X amount of money goes to Cuba and N amount of money goes to Venezuela, this is where your tax dollars are going.

When we talk about health care or education, we are asked "How will we pay for it?" but no one asks any questions about giving someone millions of your tax dollars to lead a coup.

This is one of the main issues that drives me to run against Mike Thompson, who consistently votes for our government to interfere in the affairs of sovereign nations, putting people's lives at risk. For money.

Last Tuesday the Napa City Council voted 3-2 to approve the small cell agreement with Verizon despite about 40 speakers against the agreement and zero speakers in favor. The Council heard that Verizon had been dishonest about their attempts to notify every neighbor, dishonest about the text they sent to residents and dishonest about small cell antennae being 5G ready. When Verizon decides to switch to 5G, they won't need any further agreement with the city, thanks to the Telecommunications Act of 1996.

You have probably heard of Rodney Reed by now, who is set to be executed on November 20th. His case is a perfect example of why the death penalty needs to be abolished. All of the evidence in the murder he is accused of points to a rookie police officer, with an aggressive and racist history, learning of his fiancee's affair with Rodney and murdering her. All of the state's evidence has been disproved, and because of advances in DNA testing, there is DNA which the defense has been trying to get tested for years, even offering to pay for the testing. State legislators have been contacting Governor Abbott to get a stay of execution, so the man can have a fair trial. If Governor Abbott foes nothing, in ten days Texas will execute what is, almost assuredly, an innocent man.

There are lakes and rivers that are contaminated with mercury all over this country, including Lake Berryessa and Clear Lake. There are people that want to do the hard work of cleaning our waterways, but have been waiting for the EPA to grant the money.

For many many decades this problem has gone ignored. Why? Because the natural environment has no financial value until it is destroyed. And because our economic system is designed to prioritize money over all else.

When I am elected, I will put together a team of Congresspeople to focus on this issue. Together we will hold press conferences to inform the public of the contamination, the benefits of our water being clean and how long this has gone ignored for.

As the public becomes more and more aware of this issue, and sees elected officials and their wealthy donors making excuses about why they think dirty water is better, this will become an important issue, and the head of the EPA, whomever it is at that time, will be under a great deal of pressure to go to Congress and ask for the money to start doing the work. It is a long, hard road, but we can do that.
I picked up trash at North Vallejo Park with my partner, Paula, Saturday, at a Clean With Hakeem event. I'm proud to be cleaning up this park, which is basically an extension of my own neighborhood, and I appreciate Vallejo City Council Member Hakeem Brown bringing the cleaning crew to an often ignored part of town.
