California's workers are about to get more paid sick days!
With @SenGonzalez33’s bill, Californians won't have to choose between getting paid and taking care of themselves or a family member.
We're helping workers, reducing inequality, and supporting a California for all.

These are my teammates. We are Olympic champions. Three of us tried to give birth. Two of us experienced near-death complications. One of us died. We have to, and we will do more. Tori’s death cannot and will not be in vain.

Sen. @aishabbwahab (D-Hayward):
"We came here united in the thought that in this country it does not matter where you come from; it only matters what you plan to do with your life. Loving each other, respecting each other -- these are the things that make us great Americans."

It’s degrading to have your government deem you unworthy of shaping the course of your own life, unworthy of controlling even your own organs. It’s degrading to have your government declare your ongoing human life less important, and less real, than a hypothetical future one.
