Today, our nation mourns the senseless loss of eight lives during a mass shooting in the Atlanta metropolitan area. Our hearts go out to the families and friends impacted by this unspeakable tragedy.

As we’ve witnessed the rise of hate crimes against the AAPI community, there has been so much grief, pain, and fear. Dismantling the racism, discrimination, and xenophobia in our country requires all of us. Only through our unity can we uplift and empower the voices of our AAPI Sisters, Brothers, and Siblings.

In solidarity, the California Democratic Party is standing together to stop AAPI hate.

Former Apprentice star and Home Alone 2 cameo appearance, Donald J. Trump made the news again as his Senate Impeachment trial kicks off today.

While his GOP goons like Kevin McCarthy and Devin Nunes grandstand with partisan talking points, California Democrats are committed to holding the Republican party accountable for siding with insurrectionists, white supremacists, and Q-Anon supporters.

We haven’t forgotten: 7 California Republicans supported Trump’s insurrection. And we’ll be there supporting the Democrats fighting to take their seats.

In literally every other workplace in America: supporting an anti-semitic, anti-democratic, white supremacist terror event is a fireable offense.

So why are these Trump hacks still in office?

Hope is here.

Small businesses drive California’s economy, employ nearly half of all private sector employees and create two-thirds of new jobs. As California faces challenges due to the global pandemic, California Democrats continue to prioritize the health of every person while fighting for small business relief.

That’s why Governor Gavin Newsom and California Democratic leaders established California’s Small Business COVID-19 Relief Grant Program. The program has already awarded over $225 million to more than 21,000 small businesses with 77% of selected applicants being from underserved and disadvantaged communities.

And that’s just the beginning. There’s another $237.5 million up for grabs in the second round of funding. If you are a small business owner who has been impacted by COVID-19, apply for this small business grant by February 8th!
APPLY NOW » For more information on grant requirements and eligibility, along with links to application tips and webinars, visit CAReliefGrant.com

It’s like Asm. Wendy Carrillo said, “Small businesses are the backbone of our state economy. They shape the character, culture and authenticity of our neighborhoods and create opportunities for Californians to thrive and achieve the American Dream.”
