In 2021, @BrightlineDef worked with low-income #SF tenants to get them government-funded air purifiers. But only half got them, due to red tape.
So they worked with @CCSROC @LaVozLatinaSF to cut the tape. Now? Devices are landing in tenants’ hands.

AB 2537 just passed out of the #CA legislature thanks to the leadership of @AsmDawnAddis. If @CAGovernor signs the bill, CA could be the first state to fund dedicated community capacity for #OffshoreWind projects and increase local and Tribal engagement for equitable development!
back again, back again - back to where it all began - Mission Local covers my return to @sfzinefest as its Guest of Honor in 2024. I also look back nostalgically to 2012, when I was self-publishing and stapling comic booklets by hand: missionlocal.org/2024/08/for…
ADVOCATE is recommended by @bookriot in comics about lawyers, both real and fictional, and I love that my book is listed next to a really fun comic about She-Hulk 😆: bookriot.com/graphic-novels-…
