The LA fires highlight a deep injustice: formerly incarcerated firefighters, who risked their lives battling wildfires for pennies, are barred from using that same experience for a stable career post-release. They deserve pardons. Read more from @Ericangelo_ms of @AllianceforBMOC

And last week, our very own @william_fitz spoke with Bloomberg about successful campaigns to stop companies like Google from being in the business of war. These historical victories do not have to be a blip. We can build life-first tech by putting binding rules in place to protect against the worst of AI.

"Firefighting, with its extreme risk and stark benefit to the public good, is a glaring example of how California depends on prisoner labor and the exploitation of the people who perform it. This reality jeopardizes the state’s proclaimed values and implicates both the public and our elected representatives. Granting clemency would affirm our commitments to justice and human rights, and to a vision of dignity and fairness for all."
