NEW President Donald Trump’s executive order on mail voting is highly likely to be declared unconstitutional and blocked by courts. But it might also screw up the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) 30 ongoing lawsuits for state voter rolls. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/trumps-anti-voting-order-may-backfire-damaging-dojs-voter-roll-campaign/

It takes courage to be yourself, no matter who you are.

On Transgender Day of Visibility, California sees and celebrates trans communities across the state — and we recommit to protecting your fundamental rights and your safety.

We’re proud to have recently secured a ruling ensuring the Trump Admin’s Kennedy Declaration cannot be used to strip away transgender individuals’ access to gender-affirming care.  
 
At CA DOJ, we remain committed to fighting for LGTBQ+ rights and freedoms this #TransDayofVisibility and every day.

That means civil lawsuits can move forward. The court also rejected Trump’s First Amendment defense and blocked a DOJ effort that could have shielded him from liability.

After weeks of negotiations, Republicans caved to our demands to fund DHS without a blank check for ICE and CBP.

NEWS: Republican Leader John Thune told Trump that Senate Republicans would finally join Senate Democrats to support funding all of DHS except ICE.

Donald Trump said no.

This shutdown is on him alone.

Not a single Senate Democrat will support the SAVE Act. Not this week. Not next week. Not ever.

We will oppose it on the floor as long as it takes.

That’s why I’m urging you, with all the gravity this moment demands, to add your name to a petition telling Congress: abolish ICE.

When enough of us raise our voices together, we remind our leaders — and ourselves — that compassion is our strength, not cruelty.

They have tried everything they can think of to distract us and prevent the truth from coming out — posting racist memes and even shutting down the House. But we will not stop until all involved are held accountable and the survivors get justice.

Los Angeles was ground zero for Trump’s war on immigrants and his abuse of power. Now, Minnesotans exercising their First Amendment rights are being violently suppressed by his secret police — leaving people dead.

Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller must resign.

Donald Trump must fire Kristi Noem immediately.

Or Democrats will initiate impeachment proceedings against her in the House.

We can do this the easy way or the hard way.

That empathy extended well beyond his films. Rob was a passionate advocate for children and for civil rights — from taking on Big Tobacco, fighting for marriage equality, to serving as a powerful voice in early education. He made California a better place through his good works.

Today, for the first time in six months, Angelenos are living without the National Guard unlawfully deployed in their city.

Our team fought tirelessly against President Trump’s unlawful attempts to militarize American cities, and while the fight is not over, this is a step in the right direction.
