Fun to see @JDVance
take a ballot selfie in @HuffPost. Monica Torres quotes me saying it is "a magnificent display of civic participation" when I authored the law to enshrine the free speech rights of Californians to share how they voted in 2016.

Commuting death penalty sentences was a good idea in 2017. The next best time is now.
This is the moment for a gubernatorial candidate to pledge to commute death penalty sentences to life without parole. xitter.cf/sfchronicle/status/901…
Sites like @DraftKings & @FanDuel operate illegally in CA. Advertising & sponsorships should be banned in media, venues & w/teams to protect consumers from predatory behavior of targeting betting losers with AI. It's like marketing liquor to alcoholics.

What a goofball move by Stanford.
Stanford University is facing criticism for using generative AI to change the photo of a Hispanic male student into a non-existent Black woman for a dining hall advertisement. sfchronicle.com/bayarea/arti…

Antisemitic chants erupted at a San Francisco press conference Wednesday when protesters shouted "Tax the Jews" for over a minute without intervention. This wasn't policy debate—it was the weaponization of dangerous stereotypes falsely portraying Jews as wealthy and greedy.
Mayor @DanielLurie was right to call this out. When hate goes unchallenged, it emboldens extremists and normalizes antisemitism. We must stand together against hate wherever it appears.
Read Marc Levine's full statement.
At an event this afternoon, a group of individuals that were chanting "tax the rich" began to shout "tax the Jews." This was an event I put on with Supervisor Mahmood, labor leaders, and dozens of workers to announce a plan that creates more jobs for those workers and housing for San Franciscans.
Suggesting that Jews are wealthy is a tired trope, and targeting our community at an event focused on creating economic opportunity for San Franciscans is decidedly antisemitic. I will never accept hate directed at the Jewish community or any community in our city. Those are not San Francisco values—we’re better than that.
I wrote this in 2016 & Daily Fantasy Sports betting still operates illegally in CA. It is time for @NBA & @MLB
to end equity stakes in FanDuel & DraftKings and all leagues to end partnerships with DFS which lend it credibility. It is just a crap shoot.

The CA Dept. of Justice just released its 2024 Hate Crime Report. 75 % of all faith-based hate crimes in the state targeted Jews —again the single most-attacked religious group in CA [CA DOJ, 2024 report, p. 13]. @AGRobBonta
Silence normalizes hate. Share the numbers, elevate Jewish voices, and hold institutions accountable. 📊✊🏼 #StopAntisemitism #HateCrimes #California

.@MarcLevine of @ADLCalifornia said there was “raw antisemitism” on display at the board meeting.
“Most disturbing was that the rhetoric came from elected board members,” he said in a statement.

As my colleague @MarcLevine said, “No one should have to hide who they are to order a cup of coffee, but at Jerusalem Coffee House, antisemitism was literally on the menu.” This lawsuit demonstrates that we will not tolerate antisemitic discrimination anywhere.
Refused service simply for being Jewish. You read that right. Today, alongside @BeneschLaw, we filed a federal lawsuit against the operators of Jerusalem Coffee House in Oakland on behalf of a Jewish customer alleging that the cafe violated his civil rights. adl.org/resources/press-rele…
Front row seat to history as Congress is sworn in and elects its Speaker. – at Capitol Hill, Washington
Today Yahya Sinwar faced accountability for the unspeakable horror of the 10/7 Hamas massacre of 1200 people including horrific sexual crimes and the murder of babies and grandparents.
Sinwar is responsible for the ensuing war he began which can come to an end when over 100 hostages including Americans and remains of murdered hostages are free. We shall pursue justice. #BringThemHomeNow
This doesn't end until all the remaining hostages are returned, including American citizens. These are people whose families & friends were butchered on 10/7. Since that day, they have endured over a year of unimaginable brutality & suffering in Hamas captivity. #BringThemHomeNow
