Drop boxes stay open today until polls close. Go to ocvote.gov for locations, including drive up drop boxes. 🌧
If you're in line when polls close, #stayinline! You'll still be able to vote. 🗳

Under President Biden, the deficit fell by $1.4 trillion this year. That’s the largest one-year drop in American history.
Congressional Republicans are pushing for tax cuts skewed to the wealthy that would add $3 trillion to the deficit.

Just another sad example of Ms. Steel's SOP:
Say anything regardless of the truth
In her approach, there is no truth, no honor & no commitment to service. For Steel, there's only an all-consuming attempt to maintain position & power.
She embodies today's GOP.

These are more than racist, the are very much in-line with early nazi propaganda aimed at getting the public to accept what they had planned for the Jews. It's the height of irresponsibility for any vendor to accept or distribute this messaging. – at Eugene, OR

As the affirmative action case reaches the Supreme Court, @AAPolicyForum's Kristin Penner & I push back hard on the false lone-wolf narrative around conservative activist Ed Blum #defenddiversity

Most Asian Americans support affirmative action. The plaintiffs do not reflect the larger population.

For one AAPI candidate to attack another by pulling out Chinese “red scare” tropes harms our entire community and is beyond appalling. To AAPIs in Orange County: Vote her out. Jay Chen for CA-45!!

Shame on you Michelle for advancing right-wing bull-shit like this. You are an absolute disgrace. It’s disturbing that would have decided to embrace the kind of rhetoric that has resulted in violence against the Asian American community. You are unfit for office.

“[This] should be an opportunity to highlight the diversity and achievement of the Asian American community. Instead, one candidate is using racist attacks and advertisements to question the patriotism and loyalty of an American military veteran.” #CA45

Coming soon: "It's outrageous that anybody would hold me responsible for this heinous act just because I starred in a campaign ad firing hundreds of rounds from a machine gun at a photo of Nancy Pelosi."

Agreed. It’s definitely bizarre to see an ad from a group led by former Trump officials, condemning the rise of anti-Asian hate, when Trump’s scapegoating of Asian Americans during COVID-19 led to so much hate against our communities. 🧵

More than 200 bipartisan former military leaders, ambassadors & national security leaders at @NSLforAmerica have stepped up to endorse Lieutenant Commander JAY CHEN for Congress in #CA45
Chen is a patriot who loves his family, community & US 🇺🇸

Group withdrawals endorsement of Michelle Steel over anti-Asian attacks. She is denounced for spreading misinformation in an attempt to paint a Taiwanese American as a communist.

Michelle Steele's new ad attacking the patriotism of @jfchen, who served in our military, is pathetic and shameful. Anyone who takes the crisis of anti-Asian hate in this country seriously should condemn Michelle & her dangerous tactics in the strongest of terms. This is NOT ok.

ICYMI: Based on our latest report, we know that there's a correlation between political anti-Asian scapegoating and the language used in anti-Asian hate incidents. Here are several steps politicians can take to help reduce this harm during the final few weeks of #2022Midterms🧵

AAPI leaders in Congress will be canvassing in #CA45 for JAY CHEN tomorrow.

On this day 75 years ago, October 20, 1947, the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) began hearings to investigate alleged Communist influence in Hollywood. As a result, you may have never heard of one of the most famous Black entertainers of that time, Hazel Scott. 🧵
