quick campaign update

  Hey, there! 👋 As of today, we're officially 101 days out from November 3rd, 2020. That means we have 101 days to convince the folks of CA-38 that we need to keep Linda right where she belongs -- in Congress. This year has placed our country under unprecedented strain,…

What's best for students and teachers?

... that's a question on a lot of folks' minds right now. While there isn't a one-size-fits-all solution, the solution should not put students' and teachers' health at risk -- which is exactly what would happen if schools reopened without adhering to proper safety precauti…

Hold ICE Accountable >>

In an effort to curb the spread of COVID-19, ICE staff have resulted to using harsh, disinfectant chemicals in detention facilities, causing itchy rashes, bloody noses, burning eyes, fainting, and coughing fits for people in ICE custody. This is nothing short of a human r…

ICE detention centers have seen a spike in COVID-19 cases, jeopardizing the health of the people in ICE custody. To make matters worse, there are new reports that ICE staff are disinfecting facilities with hazardous chemicals. For detained people, the use of harsh disinf…

Roger Stone

Once again, Donald Trump has lowered the bar for presidential standards by granting clemency to his close friend and political ally Roger Stone -- despite a jury convicting Stone of lying to Congress, witness tampering, and obstructing a congressional committee proceeding.…

The USPS needs our help

Let's get one thing straight: The USPS will play a central role in November's election. Due to COVID-19, we'll likely see a higher number of people voting-by-mail than ever before. Therefore, it's imperative we have a functioning postal service so ballots are delivered and…

The problem with COVID-19 testing...

COVID-19 testing. Now.

As COVID-19 cases continue to rise nationwide, the Trump administration has decided to cut off funding for public testing sites. Make no mistake -- this decision will have disastrous consequences, especially in Black and Latino communities which are disproportionately …

While July 4th may look different this year, today we reflect on the progress our country has made and the long way we have left to go. After 244 years, we have yet to achieve true equality for all Americans, but this dream for our nation is within reach. Under the rig…

Defending our progress

In the last two weeks, we have seen the Supreme Court rule in favor of nondiscrimination protections for LGBTQ workers, the preservation of DACA, and a woman's right to choose in Louisiana.  Like many of you, I'm happily surprised by the Supreme Court's decisions. That said, I …

Big cats are not pets.
