When our representatives are making important
decisions that impact all of our lives I believe it is important to ask
one basic question before making
those decisions, Is this good for
the children? Just imagine what our world would be
like if that question was asked prior to making decisions about going to
war, the environment, education or healthcare.

Our Featured Guests
1. Debbie McKay, President of the League of Women
Voters announces a livestream workshop "How to Run for City or Town
Council" on Wednesday July 15, 2020 6:00 to 7:30 PM to interest more
residents of diverse backgrounds to campaign for public offices in
the county. If you have been thinking of running for such an
elected position or would like to know what is involved in such a
run and offer support, this is the workshop for you. The League has
assembled some elected officials with firsthand experience to guide
you on the path in this webinar. The panel includes Esther Lemus,
Town of Windsor Vice Mayor, Victoria Fleming, Santa Rosa City Vice
Mayor, Marta Cruz-Concepcion Cloverdale City Council member, and
former Santa Rosa City Council member, Lee Pierce, who will share
how they successfully ran for office.
About our Guest: Debbie McKay is a lifelong
resident of Sonoma County and has always been active in the
community. Previously she served as the treasurer and president of
the YWCA. Currently, she is the president of the League of Women
Voters, and former Chair of the League's Outreach Committee where
she taught over 60 local community members how to register citizens
to vote.
2. Mary Moore revisits the
actions of her, Karen Sarri, author of Stolen Lives, and
others in the late 1990s after a spate of killings by law
enforcement officers in Sonoma County to spur the U.S. Civil Rights
Commission to hold hearings and make a report in 2000, in which a
Citizens' Review Board of County Law Enforcement was highly
recommended. The report was ignored by the County Supervisors. It
took the killing of 13-year old Andy Lopez in 2013 to create a
public uproar that resulted in the Supervisors creating the
Independent Office of Law Enforcement Review and Outreach (IOLERO),
whose first director Jerry Threet found to be ineffective without
subpoena power to force compliance by the Sheriff's Office to hand
over records or attend hearings. Mr. Threet is now leading the
charge to encourage the Supervisors to place the Evelyn Cheatham
Effective IOLERO Ordinance on the November ballot, which strengthens
oversight and accountability of the Sheriff's Office. Mary calls the
present day IOLERO, crumbs thrown to the public instead of a proper
citizen's review board with subpoena power. Mary hopes the kiling of
George Floyd and the national protests has created an atmosphere to
effect real change locally in Sonoma County. The Board of
Supervisors will take up the topic of a more effective IOLERO at
Tuesday
July 14th Board meeting, Item 27.
About our Guest: Mary Moore has been a social
justice activist since 1962 focusing on issues or racism, sexism and
classism. In the late ‘70s she organized a statewide network to stop
Diablo Canyon and Rancho Secco nukes. She co founded the Bohemian
Grove Action Network in 1980 to raise awareness of the elite and
small network of men with outsized influence that gather annually at
Bohemian Grove in Sonoma County. n the mid ‘90s she helped to start
a local movement against police abuse, getting the US Civil Rights
Com. to hold hearings in Sonoma County and documenting the
unacceptable amount of killings by police. She is currently working
on an archives project for the Bancroft Library in Berkeley.
