I can't even explain how tired I was after having issues with flights etc...to just run as fast as I could to make it.

Get your favorite pens ready for the Great American Write-In. On March 9th, we will be writing postcards to @GavinNewsom to continue demanding he honor Sithy and Laura gubernatorial pardons requests. Pardons are just one of the many ways we keep our families together. #WeGotUs

.@GavinNewsom vetoed the #HOMEAct despite majority support & no org opposition. The bill addressed the cruel double punishment of immigrant communities.
@SenToniAtkins @CASpeakerRivas, incoming Pro Tem @ilike_mike thx for your support for #AB1306
It’s time for a veto override.
