The system is broken.

Billionaires get richer. Workers get replaced by algorithms.

The economic disruption is here. And California is taking action today.

We have to build a future that protects workers, supports small businesses, and ensures the new economy works for everyone, not just a handful of tech companies.

It’s time to rewrite the rules to make sure THE PEOPLE benefit.Image

Trump has been standing on the stage tonight doing nothing but spewing lies — don’t believe them.
TRUMP LIES: “I am the one that got the cost down for insulin.”

FACT CHECK: Trump did not cap insulin costs. @JoeBiden did.
TRUMP LIES: On overturning Roe v. Wade: “This is something that everybody wanted.”

FACT CHECK: The overwhelming majority of Americans support Roe v. Wade.

@GregAbbott_TX this will be launching in your state today.
@GovHolcomb the people of Indiana will be seeing these as they drive to work today.

THREAD: Some people (...meaning the @GOP and @NRA) like to point to horrific shootings like yesterday’s and say CA’s strict gun laws don’t work.

The reality is that is simply not true.

A quick review...
In 1993, CA had the 3rd highest rate of gun homicides in the country and the 16th highest rate of gun deaths overall.

Since then CA has become a national leader on gun safety.
The most recent CDC data shows:

- CA has the 7th lowest gun death rate in the nation
- CA’s gun-related death rates are 40% below national average.
- CA’s gun homicides among 15-24-year olds fell to the lowest rate since 1970.

CA has tripled and sustained our pace of administering the #COVID19 vaccine.

But we know we must do more and move faster including:
1. Simplifying our vaccine eligibility framework:

- CA is moving to a single, statewide, baseline standard

- Continue through 65+ and healthcare workers, prioritize first responders, food & ag workers, teachers & school staff
 
-From there, transition to age-based eligibility
2. Standardize vaccine information & data:

- Partnering with @salesforce and others to create one end-to-end data system, My Turn.

- Californians will be able to make appointments & sign up to know when it’s their turn

This will help track our vaccines & eliminate data lags.
