History teaches us that attacks on voting rights are never isolated incidents. Dr. King reminds us that injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere, so Assembly Democrats stand with our brethren in places like Tennessee where Trump and his minions are trying to silence minority voters. Assembly Democrats stand firmly with those fighting to have their voice heard.
Earlier today, @brotherjones_ stood alongside the California Legislative Black Caucus (@CLBC ) to call out Republican-led gerrymandering efforts targeting Black and brown voters across the South and nationwide.
Our democracy works when every voice is heard and every vote counts.
We will not be silent. We will not be intimidated. And we will not go back.
As @asmlashae said, our vote is our voice. Voting is a fundamental right and AJR 29 is about protecting California voters. Assembly Republicans voted against this resolution, once again siding with Trump.
Black History is American History. We are grateful for the sacrifices of those who came before us and honored to continue in their legacy. #blackhistorymonth #bhm100
Senator Weber Pierson is setting the record straight. Black history in America does not start with enslavement. African descendants in the U.S. carry a long history of their ancestors living in a rich, prosperous society before being forcefully taken from their native lands.
