I made a small campaign donation to Doug Jones, who's running against Roy Moore in Alabama.

I signed up for training to work with an organization that monitors and documents ICE enforcement activities in Santa Clara county: https://www.pactsj.org/santa-clara-county-rapid-response-network/. I've been wanting to do more related to immigration rights - this seems like a good way to dip my toe in the water.

And, I actually started this back in October, but I've been learning Spanish. Because as I've looked into opportunities to get more involved in immigration rights, it's become clear that I can be a great deal more useful with some basic fluency in the languages most commonly spoken by local immigrant communities. And I have a bit of a head start of Spanish compared to Vietnamese.
