The NAACP is suing DOJ for records on the 1,000+ election monitors it plans to send to the polls on Nov. 3. One question it wants answered: Does a lawyer who pleaded guilty to hacking election websites work for the department? We broke the story on him back in August. Read it here:

Community members gathered at the Federal Immigration Court location to raise awareness and support of those that have been wrongfully detained by ICE.  The community also raised voices in opposition to unwarranted military actions as well as other unjust and violent acts by ICE and other federal government agencies.  This event was organized by Indivisible Resisters Contra Costa, a grassroots, nonpartisan group advocating for policies to support immigration reform, campaign finance reform, universal healthcare, racial justice, and to protect our environment.
