I was happy to support @seiu2015.bsky.social's efforts at our Board of Supervisors meeting. IHSS workers are in dire need of a wage that reflects the rising cost of living. Without these workers recipients would lose access to care or be forced into a skilled nursing facility at four times the cost.

The California Democratic Party is organizing multiple Yes on Prop 50! community canvassing events on several dates leading up to the special election. This is a great way to get involved and support the cause!

The Epstein Files are an indicator of a larger problem in the United States.
YouTube video by Jim Salegui for CA CD1 The Epstein Files are an indicator of a larger problem in the United States.

I'm greatful for the leadership displayed by @khanna.house.gov Rep. Massie in support of these courageous women. They have begun the difficult task of demanding transparency. We must work together to ensure accountability and justice follow.

This Labor Day, I am grateful for the workers who gave their lives to establish better working conditions and rights for future generations.

With the National Labor Relations Board in jeopardy, we must work together to support our labor unions! πŸ’ͺ

A Federal Appellate Court Finds the NLRB to Be Unconstitutional And just like that, it frees Elon Muskβ€”and any fellow employersβ€”to violate whatever rights their workers thought they enjoyed.

"And in this era of judge shopping, mega-companies that may have one part-time employee or a single post office box in one of those states β€œmay now flood the Fifth Circuit” to avoid any enforcement of decisions upholding workers’ rights,.."

Photo of Tweet from Governor Josh Shapiro @GovernorShapiro

It reads:
President Trump can sign whatever executive order he wants to sign - but it won't change the Constitution.

And according to our Constitution, the authority to set our election rules belongs to the states.

We will protect mail in ballots in Pennsylvania.

#VoteByMail improves participation & access for #rural communities, #disabled residents, & deployed #military members.

We need to strengthen and protect the right to #vote, which includes strengthening & protecting the #USPS.

I am strongly in support of Governor Newsom's effort to redistrict California in response to Republican efforts to gerrymander the next election. While I agree that mid-decade redistricting as well as gerrymandering are both extremely problematic, our democracy is on the line and as the most populated state in the union, California has a duty to fight in defense of The People. Authoritarianism is a clear and present danger to our citizens and the nation as a whole and we must do everything we can to resist. I especially appreciate the representatives that vote in favor of this action even at the expense of their next election.

We've had an eventful week with a trolling Newsom, a defiant sandwich sling, welcoming a war criminal, & a rattled LaMalfa, but it still wasn't enough to forget the Epstein files!

Regardless of CA maps, I am committed to securing districts, serving The People, and defending our democracy.

Saturday is the biggest event of the year in Plumas Lake…the annual block party!

Come out to Eufay Wood Park between 3:30pm & 9:00pm for music, food, vendors, kids activities, cornhole, a beer garden, and more.

I’ll be pouring beer from 3:30-7:30 so stop by and say hello.

The People must realize that

MSM outlets profit off your outrage & fear

Russian troll farms are designed to sow discord such that you see the opposite view point as unhinged & unreachable

Americans have more commonalities than differences

Extremists are the outliers

Govt. Website 'Glitch' Removes Trump's Least Favorite Part of Constitution Trump is trying to take over the Library of Congress, but its website already deleted a part of the Constitution that Trump officials don’t like.

Trump's admin removed sections of the Constitution from the Library of Congress's site including Habeas Corpus, the Titles & Emoluments clause, States' rights, and the requirement to maintain a Navy. Americans must work together to preserve our democracy. #jim4ca

We are on the cusp of a recession
YouTube video by Jim Salegui for CA CD1 We are on the cusp of a recession

The release of 2nd quarter's GDP data, combined with the May, June, and July #jobs reports indicate that the US is on the cusp of a #recession.

It's always more difficult to organize when you're in survival mode, but we must continue to #resist.

The primary job of a Representative is to listen to your constituents, develop solutions, and advocate for their best interests.

It's simple for those of us with a moral compass.

Trump’s Domestic Use of Military Set to Get Worse, Leaked Memo Shows A Department of Homeland Security memo obtained by TNR signals top-level discussions about a potential escalation of the Pentagon’s domestic anti-immigration role, and lays out new details.

"The conflation of a low-level threat like transnational criminal organizations with Al Qaeda, which was actually attempting to topple the United States government, is a clear attempt to use excessive force for a purpose normally handled by civil authorities."

Nearly 4,000 NASA employees opt to leave agency through deferred resignation program The employees who have chosen to leave the agency amount to about 20% of NASA's workforce.

Studies estimate that for every $1 the U.S. government spends on #NASA, the #economy is boosted by $7-$14. NASA is a proven positive revenue stream & these cuts are fiscal malpractice. The loss to institutional knowledge will be devastating.

Home - Global Footprint Network The Ecological Footprint metric shows how much nature we use compared to how much nature we have.

Today is #EarthOvershootDay β€” the day when humanity’s demands on nature surpass Earth’s ability to replenish itself in a year. This year’s date (a week earlier than 2024) means that people are using nature 1.8 times faster than Earth can replenish itself.
