Vote NO on the Republican Recall September 14th

National Republicans have found their latest scheme, recalling Governor Gavin Newsom. The Republican Recall is a partisan power grab and an attempt by national Republicans and the far-right to force a costly re-election for taxpayers and seize control in California, the nation’s largest Democratic state.  

What’s at stake? The consequences of a Republican Governor will have a dire impact on the daily lives of Californians that are already living in an environment frought with many challenges – a global pandemic and rising COVID cases; an economic recession, racial injustices and a climate crisis. The leaders of the Republican Recall seek to repeal clean air protections, roll back gun safety laws, strip migrant workers of their protections, and take away critical access to healthcare during a pandemic. 

GET INVOLVED AND TAKE ACTION!  Help Stop the Recall by participating in any of the activities below.  For more information on volunteering, contact Cecilia at volunteer@contracostadems.com or call 510-693-4259!

June 15, CADEM launches organizing effort to Stop the Republican Recall

From the California Democratic Party:

Today, we face the biggest threat in years from the GOP. The Republican National Committee, wealthy Trump donors and right-wing extremists have joined forces in an attempt to recall Governor Gavin Newsom.

The California Democratic Party (CADEM) is playing a critical grassroots organizing role in the anti-recall effort. As a part of the effort, CADEM will launch an organizing effort to Stop the Republican Recall on June 15 from 6 – 7 p.m. We’ll use this time to learn more about the recall effort against Governor Gavin Newsom and how we’ll work together over the next few months to fight back against the right-wing Republican recall attempt.

Resolution against the Republican recall of Governor Gavin Newsom

DPCCC membership approved the following resolution at the April 15, 2021 regular meeting.

WHEREAS, the effort to recall Governor Newsom is a partisan power grab spearheaded by Donald Trump’s National Republican Party, the California Republican Party, and top Trump donors advocating to overturn fair elections, having already worked to delegitimize the American electoral process; and frivolously using California taxpayer dollars to fund this partisan ploy to derail the progress Governor Newsom has made to save lives, provide a safety net for struggling Californians as we are making significant strides returning our lives to normal; and

WHEREAS, the pro-recall ranks are filled with a coalition of anti-vaxxers, Q-Anon conspiracy theorists, and militia groups whose aim is to disrupt and distract from California’s progress on COVID-19 recovery, equitable mass vaccinations, and school reopenings while their leaders disseminate anti-vaccination and anti-immigration propaganda on social media sites, actively work against public interest and advocate for the microchipping of immigrants, and

WHEREAS, by uniting, Democrats will prevent Trump’s Republican Party from taking over the California government and will stand united against any candidate who seeks the office and helps Republicans succeed.

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Democratic Party of Contra Costa County opposes the recall of Governor Gavin Newsom.
