        But there's good news. He's being challenged by a progressive democrat. Someone who talks about mass incarceration.

        He talks about having seen the failure of the drug war firsthand. And again - Hillary won the county by 20% LAST YEAR. It's winnable.

        Can you imagine what a shift in policy this would be? From a Sessions-admirer to criminal justice reformer? This is a huge opportunity.

        So let's do this. June 5th is the election. Let's throw out the right-wing DA and Sheriff and elect @PhillipsforDA and @MiloForSheriff.

        Sacramento! Together we can change your justice system from the inside out! Let’s oust your horrible sheriff & oust your horrible DA & replace them with people determined to end mass incarceration. That’s why we just endorsed our first sheriff. We can’t be on the sidelines.pic.twitter.com/C5PgqUpr7i

        how is that even considered a "defense" for your members running down a lady in the street with an SUV. My god! there is only one response needed. The officer is being fired.

        Since when do police speculate on what happened before even getting a statement? This "sheriff" is a joke.

        If someone was paid a million dollars to be there, it still wouldn't be legal to run them over.

        Seems to me when certain elected officials don't like people protesting, they blame "paid" protesters instead of their own inadequacies & racist tenets. This good ole boy sheriff need to go. #VoteThemAllOut

        💥Right on! The Sacramento county sheriff is a Trump puppet. But Police Chief Daniel Hahn is dedicated to turning this around. Also, Mayor Darryl Steinberg and the Sacramento Kings organization solidly support #policereform. Give them a chance. #BLMSacramento #TheResistance

        Sacramento craigslist under jobs-> government has repeated ads wanting paid activists at $17/h- for a Republican group. They’re paid, we’re hurting and angry.
