Background

Undocumented Californians are facing a health care crisis. Over the last two years, the federal government has carried out harmful attacks on immigrant communities by separating families, increasing deportations, and undermining our health care system and safety net. This has resulted in serious trauma that is affecting the physical and mental well-being of many Californians. It is critical that our state take action now to protect the health of all low-income Californians, regardless of where they were born. Undocumented adults have contributed to our economy and social fabric for decades. They are 10% of our workforce and are parents to 1 in 6 children in California.

Submit a letter on behalf of your Indivisible group in support of ACA 6, which places a state constitutional amendment on the 2020 ballot that restores voting rights to Californians serving a period of parole in California.

Background

Our democracy is rooted in the idea that everyone’s voice matters. However, in violation of these core American values, California continues to lock some people out of the voting booth. Currently, nearly 50,000 people in the Golden State are barred from participating in local, state, and federal elections simply because they are on parole. Because of persistent structural inequalities in our criminal legal system, these community members are disproportionately people of color.

Background

We did amazing work last year on AB 3131. It would have added transparency into police militarization. Though that bill was ultimately vetoed, we moved it so much further than anyone thought was possible and demonstrated the impact of our collective power.

This year, the California legislature will be considering AB 392 to change the police use of deadly force policy in California — this is the new version of AB 931 from last year, which stalled in the last days of session. Given the high incidence of police shootings in California and their disproportionate impact on people of color, it is important than ever that we stand as allies with the communities most impacted by police violence.
