A vast majority of students we surveyed believe when we organize, we can have influence, but only 27% of students have been a part of a campaign. That's why we organize students on campus, to empower students to get activated! Sign up to be a member: www.sfrising.org/get-involved/#volu…

Prop 50 is about safeguarding the power working-class communities of color have built in CA. While Texas redrew their congressional maps behind closed doors without input from the public, California is sending new maps to voters to decide. Let’s vote YES on 50 this November 5th! #Prop50 #California

Having a plan in place to deal with ICE is critical to protecting immigrant communities. We thank Supe. Chyanne Chen for introducing this resolution, and the unanimous vote made by the Board to pass it. As a sanctuary city, we can & should be doing more to ensure immigrants feel safe & protected.

House representatives decided to starve our country and passed the reconciliation bill to fill the pockets of wealthy billionaires. This bill will cut nearly $1 trillion in funding for critical programs like health insurance, food assistance, childcare, and more. www.npr.org/2025/05/21/n...

Here's what's in the GOP megabill that's just passed the House
At the center of the sweeping bill is trillions in tax cuts, which Republicans aim to partially offset through changes to safety net programs like Medicaid and SNAP.
