Californians United for a Responsible Budget (CURB)

Last year when we passed the Racial Justice Act, we vowed to come back to make the bill retroactive. We are excited to co-sponsor and honor Dr. King’s legacy today with #RJA4All to extend equal justice under the law for ALL Black & Brown people impacted by racism in the courts. Passing the Racial Justice Act in 2020 was a HUGE step forward, but our work is not done. ... Join us as we make history again with the Racial Justice Act for All #RJA4All this year, and extend #CivilRights in the courtroom for everyone. #AB256 #ConfrontRacism
