There will be another 60 vote Friday* on the garbage shutdown deal. If we can convince just one Senator from the 52 republicans and 8 Dems that voted yes to flip, we could still stop this. Please jump on the phone today, call them, and share this widely.

Two-thirds of California's power comes from clean energy.
For 9 in 10 days so far this year, we were 100% powered for some part of the day by clean energy.
The Golden State has become the world's fourth-largest economy because of our climate leadership, not in spite of it.

Don't assume it's ICE. If you see masked ununiformed thugs dragging someone into an unmarked vehicle, dial 911 and let local law enforcement sort out who's authorized to do what.
PolitiFact - Do ICE officers have ‘federal immunity’ as White House official Stephen Miller said?

Do ICE officers have ‘federal immunity’?
Stephen Miller said ICE agents have federal immunity. Agents have broad protections when they’re conducting official duties. But they’re not immune from prosecution if they break state or federal law.

Update on our @wisconsinwatch.org story on permanently and totally disabled workers: New legislation would give them a raise for the first time since 2016. The lack of raises has cost 77-year-old Jimmy Novy an estimated $21,000, had his worker's comp check kept pace with inflation.

I can't tell you how many interviews I've done where I've been asked: If Trump's policies are so problematic, why are U.S. stocks rising so rapidly.
A bit of international context illustrates the real issue here.
U.S. stocks have dramatically underperformed other advanced economies.
