Some call us shortsighted if we focus on retaking Congress in the midterms rather than on what comes next. No! Thatโs like calling shortsighted those on the Titanic who focused on avoiding the iceberg rather than on the rest of the voyage. Thereโs no โrest of the voyageโ if we hit the damn iceberg!

California has walked the walk on independent redistricting at the state level for 15 years. But we cannot unilaterally disarm while other states throw out the rules to gain power. With one vote, Californians can punch back and also demand nationwide independent redistricting.

Ex-farm worker here. We need to talk about this whole "But a living wage for farm workers would spike the cost of food!" thing. Not true AT ALL. Y'all don't understand how fast experienced farm workers are. The average tomato picker pulls 650lbs per hour. At $20/hr, that's $0.03/lb for labor.
