Stopped by the mermorials for Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Just Voted stickers continue to be added.
ICE is staying at this hotel in downtown Minneapolis. Instead of screaming at them, we tried serenading them with encouragement to defect and lay down their weapons. #singingresistance
Superior Court of Placer County, We the People believe in your capacity for courage and in the possibility of change for ourselves and for our posterity. Plz release full police body-cam videos to Sacramento TV Stations now. We the People need this now more than ever. Signed, another GV survivor
I’m a gun violence prevention advocate, and I am going to keep shouting this from my teeny rooftop: We cannot solve gun violence in the United States when the perpetrator of gun violence is the government of the United States.
Murmuration: we see where to go by looking to those right beside us; together, we show each other how to fly. #KeepGoing #EndGunViolence #LoveIsEverywhere
Misinformation is worse than no information—and without science, it prevails. Grateful for this review of my book.
Padilla: If this is how DHS responds to a senator with a question you can only imagine what they're doing to farm workers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the Los Angeles community and throughout California.
Wow. California Sen. Alex Padilla is wrestled and detained by federal officers after showing up to DHS Sec. Kristi Noem's press conference in LA. (video from Bill Melugin of Fox News)

Four years ago today, an employee at the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority property opened fire with three pistols and high capacity magazines in San Jose, California. He shot and killed nine of his coworkers.
Christopher was a smart, funny, and fiercely competitive young man, who is among countless young people whose lives have been cut short by our nation’s preventable gun violence crisis. “The only thing that’s important to me now is the work that we do to stop gun violence,” said Rich.
Today marks 11 years since the horrific Isla Vista killings. Take a moment to honor Christopher, Rich, and all whose children have been stolen by gun violence by sharing his #MomentsThatSurvive story.
Moments that Survive: Richard
For us, life has completely changed. They say you get over it but I can’t. I don’t want to. For me, getting over it would betray Chris.

Our volunteers attended the oral arguments at the Third Appellate District Court,for Sacramento TV Stations vs the City of Roseville. We hope Roseville and Placer County will agree to transparency and release the full body cam footage from the 2023 Mahany Park shooting. @momsdemand.bsky.social
CA @momsdemand.bsky.social is honored to support @robbonta.bsky.social, @giffords.org, & our CVI Partners to speak out about the devastating impact of the abrupt termination of $811 million in federal grants for effective, evidence-based crime reduction programs.
Today, we joined @agrobbonta.oag.ca.gov, CA lawmakers and advocates to urge the Trump administration to restore the funding they cut to local community violence intervention groups. These cuts are a betrayal of bipartisan investment in our communities and will cost people their lives.
Please take a moment to call your reps: 📲202-224-3121 to connect Tell them: FUND CVI NOW! Our communities can’t wait.
As a California @momsdemand.bsky.social Volunteer, I know record-low CA homicide rates isn’t accidental – they're thx to effective programs like #CalVIP. As Trump cuts ≈$1B in public safety grants, CA must protect this success. CalVIP funding ensures these life-saving programs continue. #ProtectCVI
Shout out to California @momsdemand.bsky.social volunteers for ALWAYS showing up to support gun safety legislation. #AB1489 passed through Assembly Public Safety🎉Thanks to Assemblymember Isaac Bryan for your leadership on this bill, alcohol and service firearms def don’t mix!
Sen. McMorrow is right: If ending gun violence is an issue you are passionate about, there’s a place for you in our movement. And, no, you don’t have to be a mom, or even a parent, to join us! @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social
Today in committee, an opponent of AB 1127, a bill that will ban DIY machine guns, stated that they would challenge this legislation in court—and win. So let me be clear: We love our children more than you love your guns. Mark my words, we will win—we have no other option.
Grateful to our bill authors and witnesses who helped get AB 1127 “The Glock Bill” through Asm Judiciary committee! Stop the spread of DIY Machine Guns! #CALeg @momsdemand.bsky.social
It’s been three years since a Glock switch was used in a horrific act of mass gun violence in downtown Sacramento, California, which left six people dead and 12 others wounded. Now, our volunteers are asking state lawmakers to hold Glock accountable and ban these deadly devices, once and for all.
CA @momsdemand.bsky.social & @studentsdemand.bsky.social spoke in support of AB1127, the Glock Bill, at the Assembly Public Safety hearing. Stop the spread of DIY machine guns! #CALeg
