Please enact the California Voting Rights Act of 2026
With voting rights under attack federally California should lead in the other direction. Please enact SB 1164 and SB 1360.
Stop the Terror on Los Angeles Communities! Pasadena, Irvine, Long Beach, and who knows where next, have been subjected to late night military “training” with only a couple of hours notice before flash bangs, automatic gunfire, bombs, and helicopters defend without reprieve until the wee hours of th
Please enact AB 412, the AI Copyright Transparency Act - expose “AI” companies
The “AI” scraper bots are out of control. They ignore the robots.txt equivalent for LLMs and have made obscene amounts of money for their scam artist creators, while putting real artists out of work (and effectively DDoS-ing their servers). California should force “AI” companies’ hands by passing AB
Support Ramos’ Native bills package: AB 1681, 1769, 1841, 1889, 2018, 2115
Please support Assemblymember Ramos’ six bills that would, per Native News Online, “expand protections for crime victims, establish California Native American Day as a paid holiday for state employees, modernize missing persons investigations and formally acknowledge the state’s historic atrocities
Please don’t defend AIPAC in 2026 - Wendy Carillo has legit issues but not this
I read in the LA Reporter/Squawk Box about Senator Stern criticizing Wendy Carrillo for a supposedly antiSemitic campaign ad (to whoever’s reading, Squawk Box is SO good, kind of like Capitol Morning Report but for free [by the way you can kind of get CMR free from this RSS feed: https://capitolmr.
Please enact AB 1856, revising and refining the AB 1043 age verification law
AB 1856 (Age verification signals: software applications and online services) is a good revision of AB 1043, exempting open source operating systems from the age verification mandate and restricting the requirement to software that is hosted on an App Store. This shifts the burden of responsibility
CHP Amber Alerts & Other State Alerts Should Not Direct People to X
I want to urge the State to have emergency alerts link to a secure, privacy-respecting site on the open web rather than a private-sector social media platform. CHP has its own website, for example. X is especially bad, and not just because it nominally requires an account to view posts. Yesterday I
California Superior Court “AI” pilot programs undermine the judiciary
I’m writing in response to CalMatter’s reporting today that the LA and Riverside County Superior Courts are conducting “AI” law clerk pilot programs. LLMs are barely helpful in writing computer code - it’s completely fantastical and a violation of civil rights for them to guide court decisions by dr
California desperately needs a stronger revenue base than the “AI” bubble
If California is pinning its fiscal hopes on IPOs from the likes of OpenAI and SpaceX, we’re doomed. There is already talk of delaying the former’s because their financials are too disgusting for the public, and Musk is the ultimate scam artist - and mass murder of the 21st Century. Please make co
Please oppose AB 2664 - bad for Jews & California, good for Israel
This is another bill purporting to protect Jewish people that in fact protects the state of Israel, to the detriment of Palestinians and Jews and everyone else. I don’t know why Asm. Bauer-Kahan keeps trying to take California down the same disastrous roads UK Labor has already tripped down, but we
Please renew Stop the Hate to combat ascendant anti-Black hate
The Stop the Hate Program is needed now more than ever. In the past two weeks we’ve seen an explosive rollback of the Civil Rights movement by the Supreme Court and Southern legislatures, and a Republican legislator just admitted Rep. Clyburn’s South Carolina district was redrawn for being too Black
