THANKS TO THE AMAZING FREEWAY SIGN CREATORS!
Thanks so much to Al Franklin and his helpers who held this freeway sign up during Friday Rush Hour, July 4th weekend, on the I-80 overpass at Bell Road, on the way up to Lake Tahoe. Could not be a better place and time for exposure! Lots of traffic and a sign you could not miss. Very legible, despite our only lousy photo, below. What a great way to make the point about our King OOPS President.

VOTE FROM HOME, NOW MORE THAN EVER
In light of the coronavirus pandemic, the upcoming November presidential election may be heavily weighted towards people voting from home. We don’t know if we will feel safe going to the polls in person. To be sure you can cast your vote in safety, vote with a vote-by-mail ballot. In California, any registered voter may vote using a vote-by-mail ballot instead of going to the polls on Election Day. To request a vote-by-mail ballot for a single election or to request a vote-by-mail ballot for all elections (permanent vote-by-mail voting), follow the simple process described here.
WHY PEOPLE DON’T VOTE (2016 CA District 4, a whopping 43% did not vote)
Also, in November, if it is safe to do so, and if you prefer, you can drop off your vote-by-mail ballot at your polling place on Election Day.

The Supreme Court today ruled that President Trump is not immune from the law and could not block the release of his tax returns to state prosecutors who subpoenaed them.

Organized labor fought hard for a say in worker protections, a fair retirement, and weekends (imagine a life without weekends!), and I'm proud to be on the side of working people here in the North State.
