August 12, 2022 by Jonathan 1 Comment

Open Letter to Governor Newsom August-11-2022Download

Dear Allies,

Thank you to everyone who signed the open letter to Governor Newsom urging him to reconsider his CARE Court proposal. There were over 500 signatories!

Yesterday, Disability Rights California staff along with other disability and housing advocates hand delivered the letter to Governor Newsom’s office. Attached is a PDF copy of the letter and it is posted on DRC’s website at https://www.disabilityrightsca.org/latest-news/open-letter-to-governor-newsom-we-do-not-need-care-court-sb-1338.

Over the next few weeks, DRC will share the letter with all members of the Legislature before the final votes.

In solidarity,

Jenny Olson

People-Powered Change Wins They say “the revolutio People-Powered Change Wins
They say “the revolution will not be funded.” And it’s true. Those in power currently rely on vast amounts of money to orchestrate their influence. We are organizing more and more PEOPLE into this movement to bring down systemic oppression and build a more just society. We are inherently PEOPLE-POWERED.
