On this #420day, we celebrate the 52nd anniversary of performers β€œGail & Dale” singing the hit, β€œOne Toke Over the Line,” on Lawrence Welk.

Neither had an idea the song was about pot, and Welk thought the song was a β€œmodern spiritual.”

Being progressive in a red state isn’t a weakness. It’s frontline democracy work. You matter.

Your visibility shifts culture. Claim your values, stay rooted, and don’t dim your politics.

Speak boldly, act locally, and know that your presence is pushing progress- even if it feels slow.

News headline reading: "Farmworker activist Alfredo Juarez detained by ICE; Alfredo "Lelo" Juarez is an outspoken advocate for farm worker rights. His supporters believe he was targeted for those beliefs.

News headline reading: "Farmworker activist Alfredo Juarez detained by ICE; Alfredo "Lelo" Juarez is an outspoken advocate for farm worker rights. His supporters believe he was targeted for those beliefs.

Last week, ICE agents violently removed farmworker organizer and advocate Alfredo Juarez from his car while dropping his partner off at work.

He was likely targeted because of his work for farmworkers’ basic rights, such as overtime pay & protections from extreme heat.

The U.S. Department of Ag's abrupt end of funding for California’s Local Food Purchase Assistance Program will cause food-insecure families to have fewer options, children to miss essential meals & farmers who have built their livelihoods around feeding our communities to face devastating losses.
