We would like to thank @SteveBradford and the CA State Senate for passing #SB567 -- this bill will make critical changes to the state's felony sentencing law to ensure that courts impose a maximum sentence only when justified by proven aggravating facts @CACJNews #CunninghamFix

Thank you @AsmToddGloria and @UtilityReform for all of your work on #AB2788. Communities across #CA can rest easier knowing that their utility data will no longer be arbitrarily disclosed to immigration authorities.
Our privacy is important and the government’s access to our individual data should be done with proper judicial review. My bill #AB2788 to ensure immigration officials get a warrant or subpoena before obtaining our utility data was just signed into law by @GavinNewsom.
So many people to thank for the #ab3070 victory! but now we need to get that signature !! @cacjnews latimes.com/california/story…
Replying to @DrWeber4CA
@AsmShirleyWeber you did incredible work on this! congrats to you, your team -- as always it's an honor to collaborate with you.....
SUCCESS! Right before time ran out, #AB3070 to end racial discrimination in juries passed CA Senate & Assembly! Now it’s off for Gov. @GavinNewsom’s signature! The last hurdle. This bill is necessary to confront the present racial bias in jury selection.

Today is the day to pass #AB3070 in California! People of color are overrepresented in jails and underrepresented on juries. Stop prosecutors from unfairly striking people of color from juries. Let your legislators know! @BrendonWoodsPD @svdebug @ExonerateNation @NorCalInnocence
