CAIR-CA is here to help! Join us for a general overview of how voting works including things like how to check your voter registration status, how and where you can vote depending on where you live, how to make sense of what will be on your ballot, and where you can find some helpful resources to make sure you and all the voters you know are ready to make your voice heard in this crucial election.
In other upcoming webinars, we'll be going in depth on some of the specifics of how to vote and how to understand what we're voting for. Get started by joining us for this first one!

Let's get AB 3228 signed!

What is it? AB 3228 requires all private prison operators in the state to abide by the standards of care in their contracts and creates a civil cause of action in state court for violations of these standards. The bill also provides attorneys fees for plaintiffs that are successful in their suit.

If signed into a law in California, other states may follow in going after these private prison companies that think they are above the law.

Please sign and share our petition asking Governor Newsom to sign the bill! Link is in our bio!

Get out the Count, California!

The Census Day of Action is approaching this Thursday! By participating in the #2020Census, we’re ensuring that our neighborhoods get adequate funding for school programs, health care services, public transportation, and housing programs. This is the type of act that can address racial inequities, health disparities and more.   The Census is completely confidential and will never ask for your citizenship status. Answers cannot be shared with employers, law enforcement, ICE, landlords, or anyone else. Take the Census, today, by phone at 844-330-2020, online at my2020Census.gov, or by mail. There is power in our existence! #EveryoneCounts

🎉 BREAKING 🎉
The House just passed the #NoBanAct, the first step to repealing the Trump administration’s cruel and discriminatory Muslim Ban!! Let’s keep the momentum going!!
👉Our statement: "We are thrilled that a majority of the House voted to overturn the Trump administration's cruel and discriminatory Muslim and African bans. We are so grateful to those who voted 'Yes.' Families have been torn apart for too long due to Trump's xenophobic and bigoted policies, and this is a crucial step toward justice for these families. Our work to repeal the bans is far from over, and we will continue to push to overturn unjust policies that target vulnerable and marginalized communities."

🚨PLEASE leave a comment of your own on the asylum rule by the end of today. Every comment makes a big impact in saving asylum!

Press release statement: “The Trump administration’s proposed rule would essentially eliminate most people’s ability to obtain asylum. For desperate families and individuals escaping untold suffering, persecution and violence in their home countries, this rule could be a death sentence. We must do everything we can to push back and halt this dangerous proposal.” - CAIR-SV/CC IRC Attorney Sahreen Manzar
