We're proud to join @ProRepCoalition in its effort to advance multiparty democracy through proportional representation in CA! A proportional system would help CA move beyond the two-party doom loop of the past and towards the representative, responsive democracy of the future.

Big idea in @POLITICOMag from @leedrutman, @cerin & @RobOldham24: a "constructive" motion to vacate. The idea is simple, require a replacement before the Speaker can be ousted. politico.com/news/magazine/…

The President's pardon power is NOT unlimited. The Constitution doesn't allow pardons that: -Place POTUS above the law, -Subvert someone's Constitutional rights, -Function as a bribe or to obstruct justice, or -License lawbreaking on the president's behalf.

Political violence is spiking in the US. According to @protctdemocracy people are angrier, more inflamed and quicker to hurt or kill over politics than anytime in at least a generation. This trend could have profound consequences for democracy.👇
