Without vigilant watch and constant fight, Democracy could wither and die.

Our mission is to build a democracy of, by and for the people. We are actively participating in policy making through legislations and ballot measures, and civic engagement through voter registration and issue canvassing in local, state and national level.

Currently we meet every first Sunday at 4pm. Please join us.

Indivisible National launched the Hands off Our Vote campaign this year. We know that Trump and his Big Lie cronies are plotting to do everything they can to undermine our elections in 2026. Sign up for the campaign because we need all of us to counter their lies, and help our neighbors vote.

Despite Democratic trifecta California is not as progressive as we could be. Money and lobbyists play too big a play in our state chambers. Still Citizens Independent Redistricting Commission and Term Limits are slowly turning our state chambers to look more like our state.

Gender: 2024 was the historic year for women to achieve gender parity in State Senate, 21 women out of 40. This happened partly because Republicans are strategically seeking women (5 out of 10 Senate), 20s-30s (6 out of 30) and people of color (4 Asian + 8 Latino out of 30) as candidates. In Assembly 37 out of 80 are women while Republicans have 6 out of 20. Gender disparity is closing. However at the Federal level only 15 House of Representatives are women out of 52 seats, and both US Senators are male. Without term limit it will take a long time to fix the disparity.

Age: Majority of CA legislatures are in their 40s and 50s. Term limits are shifting the trend, but Democrats are not moving as fast as Republicans.

20s and 30s in various population

CA General 28%

CA Leg 16.7%
Democrat Leg 15.5%
Republican Leg 20%

Race & Ethnicity: While we are getting more diverse, Hispanic are under represented while White are over represented in our legislative chambers. These are self identification and Latino/a could be also white.

Race/Ethnicity CA General CA Leg Dems Rep.  
African American 5% 10 (7.5%) 10   0
Asian       15% 13 (10.8%)   9   4
Hispanic/Latino       40% 41 (34.1%) 33   8
White not Latino       34% 50 (41.6%) 33 17
Multi/Other 6%   6 (5%)   5   1

Since the Motor Voter Program started in 2018, voter registration is up, and about 20% of our population, 4.7 millions Californians are estimated eligible but not registered as of 2024. Public Policy Institute of California reported who are the unregistered voters and infrequent voters.

The voter turnout is yet to be improved especially in midterms and down ballot races. Civic education and engagement are essential to improve both voter registration and voter turnout.

The corporate power reset was first proposed in a state ballot initiative in Montana by a bipartisan group called the Transparent Election Initiative led by former state Commissioner of Political Practices Jeff Mangan. Mangan dubbed the ballot measure “The Montana Plan,” grounding the plan in Montana’s history of anti-corruption measures. The plan collected over 50,000 signatures in 11 weeks with an all-volunteer campaign. This November Montana voters will be the first to have the chance to move this reform forward at the ballot box.

With the passage of Hawaii’s state bill, and active legislation in 14 other states, it now appears that the Montana Plan is going national.
