California AB 2483 just passed the Assembly Floor! This bill ensures incarcerated firefighters can access the certifications they need to continue their careers after release. A win for fairness, safety, and second chances. Onto the Senate!

Virginia is the 6th state to ban masked law enforcement. Cristine Soto DeBerry told the Washington Post that masking creates a back door to absolute immunity for federal agents. You can't hold accountable someone you can't identify. #NoSecretPolice

Philadelphia DA Krasner to the Trump admin: "A federal badge is not a license to violate the Constitution, and it is not a shield from state criminal law." Prosecutors across the country are ready to back that up. #AccountabilityNow

Virginia is the sixth state to ban masked federal agents. HB 1482 & SB 352 just passed — law enforcement can't conceal their face while on duty in the Commonwealth. You have the right to know who is policing you. #AccountabilityNow #RuleOfLaw

The No Secret Police Act just passed the CA Senate floor. SB 1004 demands accountability from every officer — including federal agents who've been hiding behind masks in our communities. #NoSecretPoliceAct #UnmaskInjustice

Incarcerated firefighters provided 42% of CAL FIRE's emergency response hours in 2024. AB 2483 just cleared Assembly Appropriations — it would turn their on-the-job experience into real certifications and career pathways after release. CAL FIRE needs 2,400+ hires. They're ready. #AB2483

Federal VOCA funding in CA was cut 45% in 2024, then 40% in 2025. We joined 79 orgs urging Senators Padilla and Schiff to bring S. 1892 — the Crime Victims Fund Stabilization Act — to a vote. The House passed it unanimously. Survivors can't wait. #VOCA

George Retes, a U.S. veteran, was held by ICE for 3 days — no charges, no explanation. State officers can be sued for this. Federal agents can't. SB747 closes that gap. #NoKingsAct

Royal Ramey fought California wildfires while incarcerated. When he came home, no path forward existed — so he built one. 360+ people have come through his program. AB 2483 would make that official for everyone. #AB2483

Incarcerated firefighters battle California's wildfires — then come home to locked doors. AB 2483 changes that. Assemblymember Elhawary's bill ensures they earn real certifications while incarcerated, so they can keep fighting fires when they're free. #PublicSafety

#AB2483 by Assemblymember Elhawary would grant certifications to incarcerated firefighters so they can continue their firefighting careers after release. This breaks down barriers to employment and recognizes the skills and sacrifice of the incarcerated firefighters who put their lives on the line.

SB 1004 just passed Senate Public Safety. California's ban on masked law enforcement now covers local, state, and federal agents. Courts confirmed it's constitutional. 30 states have similar bills in motion.

A California sheriff seized 650,000 ballots based on claims from an activist group — no verified fraud, no expert analysis, no insider witnesses. Newly unsealed warrants show how easily it happened. calmatters.org/politics/202...

Safety and second chances go hand in hand. Every day, people return home ready to work, rebuild, and contribute — and the communities that welcome them back are stronger for it. #JusticeReform #CommunityTrust

You can sue a local cop for violating your constitutional rights. You can't sue a federal agent for the same thing. That loophole has been wide open for years — and 18 states are now moving to close it. #NoKingsAct

As DOJ gets politicized and U.S. Attorney offices get gutted, state and local prosecutors are the backstop. Your DA and AG can open investigations, create evidence portals, protect victims. Build that relationship now. #RuleOfLaw

Masked federal agents are driving survivors away from the systems built to protect them. Reports are down. Cases are being dropped. Robyn Sordelett calls it what it is: a public safety crisis. #NoSecretPoliceAct #UnmaskInjustice

SB 627 was paused on one technical point — it covered federal and local officers but not state officers. The federal government itself pointed to the fix. SB 1004 applies the rule equally to everyone. Follow our tracker to see what's moving near you: prosecutorsallianceaction.org/federal-over...

"We have never worn masks my entire career."–That's from a a longtime ICE field office director who served under four presidents. California's No Secret Police Act and similar legislation nationwide aim to ban masked law enforcement. The public safety includes a right to know who is policing them.

Shouting out two important Virginia bills waiting to be signed by Governer Spanberger!

Incarcerated Californians already fight wildfires. They already complete fire training. AB 2483 certifies them for it — giving them credentials to build careers in fire service when they come home. #PublicSafety

Yale Law School + the Center for Policing Equity just published a playbook for cities resisting federal overreach: end secret policing, communicate with communities, hold federal authorities accountable. Every local leader needs this. Link to report👇 www.justicehappenshere.yale.edu/reports/the-...

AB 2483 passed committee today. Formerly incarcerated firefighters fought California's deadliest fires — for years, for almost nothing. This bill gives them a real path to CAL FIRE careers after release. Long overdue. #PublicSafety

Before the Supreme Court, Sonia Sotomayor was a Manhattan prosecutor. She became the first Latina justice in history — and has spent decades writing opinions that center the people most affected by the law. #WomensHistoryMonth #ProsecutorsAlliance

California banned masked, unidentified officers — federal agents included. Dozens of states are advancing the same. Check our tracker to see what's moving near you. prosecutorsallianceaction.org/federal-over... #NoSecretPoliceAct

$100M shortfall. That's what federal VOCA cuts left in California — fewer shelter nights, fewer counseling sessions, fewer survivors supported through the hardest moments of their lives. Newsom and the Legislature filled the gap two years running. Do it again. #VOCA

CA's incarcerated firefighters battled the wildfires. AB2483 would give them the certifications to keep doing it after release. #FirefightingToFreedom ✅ Take Action ✅ Share this post ✅ Call your CA legislators and tell them to support AB 2483

Gun homicides had been falling since 2022. Researchers credit sustained investment in prevention. The Trump Administration just cut over $1 billion of those programs. Safe communities require prevention, not just prosecution. #PublicSafety www.thetrace.org/2026/01/trum...

Prison fire crews do the same dangerous work as paid firefighters — but leave without the certs to get hired. AB 2483 fixes that, so their skills count on the outside. 🎥: @bavcmedia & @ffrp_ca

From Maravilla to MALDEF to $3.4 billion granted for housing, education, and immigration. Antonia Hernández spent her career using the law to create change. Happy Women's History Month. 🌟 #WomensHistoryMonth

A federal law enforcement whistleblower just confirmed what many feared: ICE recruits are being taught to ignore the Fourth Amendment. California is pushing back. #NoKingsAct

Federal immigration crackdowns are eroding trust and making communities less safe. That’s why Prosecutors Alliance Action is backing California’s #NoSecretPolice (SB747) and #NoKingsAct — to ensure transparency and real accountability. No masks. No one above the law. reason.com/2026/02/16/a...

Constance Baker Motley wrote the original complaint in Brown v. Board of Education and worked alongside Thurgood Marshall at the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund to dismantle segregation. Today, we honor her as #BlackHistoryMonth draws to a close.

Honoring the trailblazing legacy of Constance Baker Motley The first Black woman appointed to be a federal judge, to argue before the U.S. Supreme Court, and to serve in the New York State Senate. #BlackHistoryMonth

Sometimes being in the room is the message. U.S. citizen & vet George Retes went to work and was detained, pepper sprayed, and held for 3 days by federal agents. He attended the State of the Union. We’re fighting for #SB747, the #NoKingsAct, so people can sue when their rights are violated.

This isn’t politics. It’s life and death. Proud to stand with Aisha Wahab in support of SB 747 — because accountability isn’t optional. No one is above the law. If your rights are violated, you deserve the power to sue and seek justice. #SB747 #RuleOfLaw #WeThePeople #NoKingsAct

Proud to co-sponsor AB 2483 with Assemblymember Sade Elhawary to create real career pathways for incarcerated firefighters. This bill creates opportunity with accountability, strengthening our wildfire response and supporting successful reentry.

This Black History Month, we honor Spottswood William Robinson III—a trailblazer for justice. ⚖️ First Black judge on the U.S. District Court for D.C. (1964) ⚖️ First Black judge & Chief Judge of the D.C. Circuit #BlackHistoryMonth #CivilRights

Meet Eunice Hunton Carter, one of the first Black women prosecutors, exposed the network behind Lucky Luciano—leading to the biggest mob conviction in U.S. history. This Black History Month, we remember her legacy. ✊🏾 #BlackHistoryMonth #LegalHistory #BlackWomenInLaw

Masked secret police have no place in a democracy. We’re proud to support VA SB 352 by Sen. Salim to ban state & federal law enforcement from wearing masks while policing our communities. No public safety without transparency & accountability. #VAleg #NoSecretPolice

300+ former federal prosecutors are sounding the alarm. DOJ must stop blocking Minnesota state and local law enforcement from investigating the killings of Renee Good and Alex Pretti. No officer or agency is above the law. Read the full letter: prosecutorsalliance.org/wp-content/u...

If the federal government won’t defend constitutional rights, states like California will. We're pushing back against unconstitutional federal tactics through the No Kings Act in California, which lets people sue federal agents who violate their rights. No one is above the law—including ICE.
