This is on you. Resign.
Devastating. Heidi and I are lifting up in prayer the family of the U.S. Capitol Police officer who tragically lost his life keeping us safe. He was a true hero. Yesterday's terrorist attack was a horrific assault on our democracy. Every terrorist needs to be fully prosecuted.

Yesterday the world witnessed a horrific attack on America’s democracy driven by a mob of white vigilantes encouraged by President Trump. The confederate flag was waved in the halls of the Capitol. (Thread 1/4)

The mRNA vaccines (Pfizer and Moderna) are kind of brilliant at a science level. I’ve had a few people in my real non-Twitter life ask me to explain how it works so I’m going to try my best here in this thread while I’m waiting for a patient to show.

As we near the end of 2020, we look back at what we've achieved but this is also a look forward at what we are capable of as a community. No matter the results of the elections, we will stand strong and move forward together. Read our 2020 annual report sff.org/2020annualreport
Gov. Newsom SUPPORTS @Schools1stCA because: "residential property owners and small businesses are protected" "it's a fair, phased-in, and long-overdue reform" "it's consistent with California's progressive fiscal values" ‼️ RT to thank @GavinNewsom for supporting #YesOn15 ‼️

Did you catch the video at the launch of The Partnership for the Bay's Future? Hear from @LISCMaurice, @fredgblackwell, @sliccardo, Priscilla Chan and other leaders who are bringing together the policy, philanthropy, business and faith communities to build #HomesForTheBay.
The #housingcrisis has reached a point where it affects everybody, but black folks were the canaries in the coal mine. There are policy reasons for that, and there needs to be systemic policy solutions. -@fredgblackwell @TSFF #HomesForTheBay

My newest in @Newsweek . Based on my book, #StateofResistanceCA, I talk about how California moved past immigrant-bashing - & how the nation can do the same. Spoiler alert: it involves organizing (& punishing politicians who portray immigrants as bandits). newsweek.com/trumps-anti-imm…
