“I am a concerned person calling to request the immediate release of Wilfredo Rivero. Wilfredo went to ICE today to update the agency on his new address. Attempting to comply with ICE’s rules should not lead to someone’s arrest. Thank you.”

Today, Wilfredo, a 25 year old resident of Siskiyou County, in rural Northern California, came to Sacramento (a nearly 6 hour drive!) to update his address with the ICE field office. he’s been shackled and caged and his family fears he will be deported in the next day or two.

Last week, the (barely) runner-up in the Sacramento mayor's race alleged a campaign contribution offer she called a "crime," but did not say who the "donors" were. Today, in the Sacramento Bee, the reveal (of those who deny any wrongdoing).

Developer Paul Petrovich told the City Council he did not offer money for a vote. But Cofer’s conversation was allegedly with somebody else.

Our very own amazing mayoral candidate Dr. Flo Cofer succinctly and completely laying out the reasons for the way many view homelessness and the ways efforts have not been evidence based and the ways it can be adequately addressed by following the evidence and leading with empathy.

A community member shared some videos of Phil’s supporters. It seems landlords, parking lots, vacant properties, empty buildings, and airbnb property owners…support Phil. That seems to not be in alignment with our community.

In case you were under the mistaken impression that they cared about addressing the issue. This would do nothing to get folks housing and has everything to do with further harming our unhoused who are also “residents” (who Jennings and Guerra cynically reference as a rationale for the measure)…

Recent News: The County of Sacramento BOS wants to sign residents up for a $1 billion jail expansion. At a cost of $10 million per bed.

The City of Sacramento’s Law and Leg members Guerra and Kaplan, who each have accepted over $20k from landlords…don’t want to stop Tenant Harassment.
