HUD leadership should hold itself to a higher standard than this. This kind of divisiveness does not solve anything. @placercountydemocrats.org #placerdems #CADEM #Democrats #Trump #Congress #CA03

These kinds of acts not only threaten non-white residents, but threaten healthy and free speech. It is these kinds of displays and rhetoric that make violence more likely. Everyone who wants to live in an equal, just, and loving society must make it clear that these are not American values. #America

Sadly, promoting racist conspiracy theories and stereotypes in public discourse has been increasingly re-normalized. We must loudly reject such efforts and statements. We cannot allow this ignorance and intimidation to prevail once again. #AntiRacist

They are becoming increasingly emboldened to show themselves in Placer County. In 2023, it was a group of Proud Boys harassing a pastor and openly displaying white power hand signs during a school board meeting in Roseville. Now they are marching in Auburn. goldcountrymedia.com/news/282781/...

We cannot allow this to be acceptable in Placer County. While Placer County elected officials would prefer not to talk about it, people need to know that this is happening in their cities. @placercountydemocrats.org #PlacerDems #Democrats #CADEM

If you cannot walk your neighborhood, we encourage you to phonebank. This is another easy way to talk to Democrats about why we need to pass Prop. 50. There are 12 phone banking sessions every week. Sign up at www.mobilize.us/cadems/event...

Canvassing is the most effective way of campaigning. Talking to people in your community is what it will take to pass Prop 50.

@placercountydemocrats.org will be having canvassing events this Saturday, September 13, in Roseville, Rocklin, Lincoln, and Auburn. We will provide you with training and send you out with a partner to talk to your neighbors.

We need a trade policy that promotes labor standards and unions around the world. That is how we increase trade without sending jobs overseas. We need to continue our investment in higher education and achieve universal healthcare so that they are accessible to all, not just the wealthy.

The Democratic Party will always remain steadfast and vocal in its support of organized labor. We must make clear that if you want a strong middle class, you must support policies that help the workers of the middle class, not the top 1% in our economy. #labor #unions #democraticparty

The lives upended by mass layoffs mean nothing to Trump and this Republican controlled Congress. They cut taxes for the wealthiest Americans while cutting our the safety nets for working people who fall on hard times.

Instead of keeping promises to support workers, the Trump Administration is quickly pushing forward with attacks on organized labor and weakening worker protections. This is becoming one of the most dire moments for labor in modern American history.

From farmworkers to ironworkers; from longshoremen to autoworkers; from teachers and nurses to scientists and engineers; and all other union workers, these are the people who brought us out of the gilded age and into a new deal. Thank you for your proud history of making America better.

The night's theme was "Together, We Rise" because we are stronger when we bring people together and lift each other up. This is how we protect each other from attacks on our communities and work towards a better quality of life for all.

We had several candidates speak and we presented awards to several deserving and hardworking Placer County Democrats. I want to give a big thank you to all of the dinner's sponsors, our Blue Legacy Donors, our volunteers, and to those who sponsored young Democrats, so that they could attend.
