A Personal Note from Andy Wong, PowerPAC

  Dear Friend,  Through all our communications I am hoping that you are getting to know us and me. That we build a sense of trust and community with you. It is your generous support that allows us to do the work we do. But I want to take a moment to share a personal note. My father, at age 101 pas…

Wyoming to Democracy: Buck Off!

  Friend -  Liz Cheney’s overwhelming defeat in Wyoming is terrifying. The inmates are truly running the asylum — and they are painting Wyoming orange. Cheney will not be remembered as a champion for communities of color, queer communities, abortion rights or as someone in any hurry to save the wo…

When a Cheney loses in Wyo, be very afraid!

  Friend -  No one has ever called Wyoming a bellwether for anything outside of bronc riding and hunting gear — but what happened in Wyoming’s primary on Tuesday is part of a scary trend that is turning red states orange.  I’m not going to hold back here: we should all be extremely worried. The da…

Do you feel safe?

 Hi there Friend,   As you read this message, do you feel safe? Whether you are at home, on the go, or at a cafe - do you feel safe?  Most Oaklanders, no matter where we live, are concerned about what keeps us safe at our homes, in our churches, in our cars, at our schools, and in our streets.  As…

 Hi there Friend -   My name is Greg Hodge but around Oakland, I am known simply as Baba Greg.  I am running for mayor to serve the City I love so dearly - its people, its distinct neighborhood life and the spirit that makes us who we are. I believe in Oakland’s ability to rise and our leadership …

We can’t do this without you

 Friend -   Grassroots organizations like ourselves don’t have deep-pocketed donors like the Alt-Right and Always Trumpers. We rely on the generosity of people like you. We like to call that running on people power, and that’s what PowerPAC needs right now.  Can you chip in and help us make an im…

Tampons and Formula

 Friend -   Not sure about you, but since the lockdown of 2020 happened, I joined a bunch of FB groups to chase down everyday items like toilet paper, paper towels, baby wipes, and yes, even gently used clothing and furniture.  I learned two things since joining those groups: 1) there are plenty …

Break the cycle

  Friend - Most of the time, district attorneys get all the bad rap. Years of racial bias, the school-to-prison pipeline, and mass incarceration has created a fractured relationship with those who are supposed to protect our communities. It’s a vicious cycle that Contra Costa County DA Diana Becto…

  Friend -   Across our nation, reform-minded district attorneys are making impactful changes towards criminal justice. A few good DAs -- like Diana Becton from Contra Costa County -- are boldly leading the way in reshaping “What is justice?”   But they can’t do it alone. They need support from pe…
