Judges in 3 states have blocked Trump's public charge rule nationally. The rule will NOT go into effect tomorrow as anticipated. Immigrant families should continue getting the health and nutrition services that they need. #protectimmigrantfamilies https://t.co/DKYhxWWNSE
Thank you @GavinNewsom and @Scott_Wiener! https://t.co/Ka3IoKYdQ5
Governor @GavinNewsom signed our legislation to ensure new moms can lactate at work!
Too many people are forced to lactate in bad conditions. #SB142 ensures they can do so with dignity.
New moms shouldn’t have to choose between returning to work & breastfeeding their babies. https://t.co/O06sePNO7O
We know that nutritious food is an important step on the path to healthy adulthood. We are still focused on serving ALL families. WIC is NOT INCLUDED in the public charge rule expansion, and immigrant families can and should still count on us. #ProtectImmigrantFamilies https://t.co/UA9HvAvPbu
