What Ruth Bader Ginsburg fought for >>

Harley Rouda for Congress     Like so many of you, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's death left me stunned and deeply saddened. She was a force of a justice and a woman -- someone who was relentless in her pursuit of justice and grounded by her sense of right. She led a life striving towards m…

Debating... an empty chair

Harley Rouda for Congress     Last night, Harley debated... an empty chair. You heard that right. He went to debate his opponent, and she never showed -- calling the debate biased because a local Democratic group wanted to have a watch party of the event.  The truth is: Michelle Steel has …

A "where were you" moment
