I feel you, squirrel. Stay cool today.

First day at University of California Center Sacramento is in the books. And the team already has a great event on deck. Check it out! uccs.ucdavis.edu/events/what-ha…

Happening now at UC Center Sacramento: Professor Erik Engstrom from UC Davis speaking on “What Happens if a Presidential Candidate Becomes Unable to Stand for Election or Assume Office?” Thoughtful discussion, no spin, and burritos for lunch.

Kate and Alex were once A and B. If Dan or I had to say something about one of them when they were within earshot, we’d use A or B as code. They caught on. A and B turned 21 this week. ❤️A❤️B

Maybe, just maybe you have questions about the conduct of this election? About who can use which campaign funds? About ensuring an accurate outcome? Join Rick Hasen at UC Center Sacramento in 10 min! Lunch provided. Can’t join us? Check out the zoom afterwards.

Come see KQED's Marisa Lagos moderate California Teachers Association's Teri Holoman, FM3 Research's David Metz, former state Finance Director Keely Bosler and CalChamber’s Ben Golombek as they tell us what to expect in the final days of the 2024 legislative session!
