Vote for Jessica Morse - US House CA03 - A Democrat Seeking to Beat Republican Kevin Kiley - The CA03 District is from Mount Lassen to Lake Tahoe to Death Valley... and the Sacramento Suburbs near Folsom Prison. Let's Make the US HOUSE BLUE!


The Primary resulted with Kiley getting 55.1% and Morse Getting 42.9%... With 47% of the Votes Counted... SO... They Both are in the Runoff Election November 5th... GO GO GO!

CandidatePartyVotes
Kevin Kiley *Rep.69,067
Jessica Morse Dem.53,842

Remember that Kevin Kiley was part of the Idiotic GOP Failure to Recall Governor Gavin Newsom... 
The turning point for the campaign, according to Newsom’s strategists, came in the governor’s adoption of aggressive mask and vaccine mandates — both widely popular in California — and in Newsom’s avalanche of spending depicting his top Republican opponent, Larry Elder, as an anti-science clone of former President Donald Trump.


Jessica Morse

I applaud the House of Representatives for passing these critical aid packages. We cannot allow Russia’s authoritarian aggression to go unchecked. For months, MAGA extremists have played politics with funding for Ukraine, and today, they failed. The consequences of Ukraine losing are too high. If Russia advances further, a NATO ally could be next — drawing in not just our dollars, but our troops. As your next Congresswoman, I look forward to continuing the fight to protect democracy at home and abroad.

Headline: Who is Kevin Kiley and what would he do as governor? He's an Anti-Vax Freak!

Jessica Morse US House CA03 - A Democrat Seeking to Beat Kevin Kiley


I’m so honored to have earned the endorsement of the
League of Conservation Voters Action Fund in my race to represent #CA03 in Congress! LCV are on the frontlines in the fight to tackle the climate crisis. They are a leading force for good – working to keep our communities healthy and sustainable, confront environmental injustice, and strengthen our democracy. I’m honored to have their support!
— with League of Conservation Voters.
Jessica Morse

Congressman Pete McCloskey established Earth Day more than 50 years ago. His work to protect our environment laid the foundation for the progress we continue to make here in California.
I was grateful for the opportunity to visit with Pete today to thank him for his support and advice over the years. Please join me in sending love to him and his wife, Helen.

#CA03 is not only home to the most beautiful mountains of California, it’s also the headwaters for 60 percent of California’s water supply.
This Earth Day, help me ensure we flip the seat and get an advocate who will protect this vital ecology while fighting the climate crisis that threatens our homes and future.

Did you know that I'm the only woman challenger in California to move forward after our March 5th primary?

In a year where reproductive freedom is unquestionably on the ballot, the fact that I’m the only woman left to draw the contrast is both sobering and cements my commitment to ensuring that we have a voice in Congress.

I have a big fundraising deadline for the end of the first quarter of 2024 this Sunday, and if I’m going to be the last woman standing in California after polls close on November 5, I need your help to reach our next major benchmark. Chip in before Sunday to send me to Congress this November so we can get to work!

Let’s do this for your daughters and granddaughters.

Jessica Morse announced on Tuesday that she’ll run in Eastern California — in an attempt to unseat Republican Congressman Kevin Kiley in District 3.

Jessica Morse

Mourning the passing of former State Superintendent of Public Instruction, Delaine Eastin. I had the privilege of running alongside Delaine on the campaign trail in 2018 when she was running for governor. She embraced my campaign and supported it with great enthusiasm. I will forever be grateful for her advice and friendship.

Delaine was a model for how to lead as a public servant. She paved the way for more women to run for office and serve in leadership roles, and she was incredibly generous with her time and energy — uplifting me and others even during her own campaigns.

I loved watching Delaine deliver passionate speeches about her efforts to ensure our education system provided students with the necessary support and tools for success in the classroom. She was a fierce advocate for school food programs, ensuring our kids had the nutrition they needed. Delaine also fought for smaller class sizes and advocated for inclusive policies, pushing for our schools to provide essential resources to students with disabilities. Her work directly improved the educational experiences of countless students in California, and will reverberate for generations to come.

I’m sending love and support to Delaine’s family and friends. Let us honor her legacy by continuing to advocate for the causes she cared about so deeply. Rest in power, Delaine.

Five years ago, shortly after the #CampFire decimated the town of Paradise, I went up to help. I filmed this video thinking I was going to help for a few days but ended up on the ground through the next month working side-by-side with local heroes who, with resilience, strength, and courage rebuilt their community. https://www.facebook.com/jessica.morse.336/videos/10215833174875001
I met a paradise school board member who had lost her home in the fire, but was going shelter by shelter to track down each of her students to ensure they were safe.
Emulating their resolve, I spent the next four years working every day to prevent wildfires like the Camp Fire. I didn't relent until we had a state-wide strategy and resources to actively mitigate these fires. We now have tools and resources to meet the fire crisis head on so other communities don't need to test their courage and grit like the people of Paradise. #ParadiseStrong #CAWildfire


When Jessica Morse sees a problem, she runs toward it and wants to help solve it. In Congress, she will do what she always does when facing a problem: listen and learn, find common ground to build a coalition of support, and put forth the best ideas to solve it. Jessica needs your support to protect what’s important – our homes from wildfire, our paychecks, our healthcare, and abortion rights.

My Music Video: eARThsong - about Growing Our Own Food in Chico, Living With Horses...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tERVWVZUNyw

This Song was written at a time that we were living in Chico, California and were surrounded by a corral with 4 horses. We were also growing many plants including Morning Glory Flowers that eventually got so tall that they climbed up to the roof of the little house. The tomato plants produced an abundance of food... quite a miracle... especially to eat them hot off the vine... the earth in Chico is dark black and fertile... 

(lyrics) Bm A D G Planting, planting, planting seeds D A D May our garden grow... Bm A D G May God bless the earth and rain D A D And sprout the seeds I sow D A D And sprout the seeds I sow CHORUS: G Bm We've been tilling soil since the dawn of time A E The fertile loam of home is nature most divine G Bm The lady with the hand upon the plow A E is identical, then and now Weeding, weeding, weeding weeds feed 'em to the horses may God bless the new-born foal and teach it natures forces and teach it natures forces Riding, riding, riding steeds just like long ago May God bless the hay they eat and set their eyes aglow and set their eyes aglow

Question from 2021:

I Wonder Why Fresh Water from The Sacramento River Flows into the Ocean? Why Not Use It To Water Crops? After All, The Colorado River is Pumped Dry... and That's a BIG River... It Dug the Grand Canyon... 

We are Having a Drought Here in California... This Water COULD be used to Grow Crops, Water Livestock, Take Showers or Make Ice Cubes for a Scotch on the Rocks... But NO... It Flows Out into The Ocean at San Francisco... 

Sacramento-river-Scottys-Chico-California-CA-vandergreg-gregvan

Many People say we Need to Provide a Lot of Cool Water for the Salmon to Swim in... I Wonder... What if We Cared More about Human Life than Fish? What if the Salmon All Died in the Sacramento River... They Still Have The Klamath and Columbia Rivers to Swim in... What if We Just Pumped the Sacramento and San Joaquin Rivers Dry and Spread all that water over Farmland in the Central Valley... A LOT Would Evaporate and Fall as Rain When It Reached the Sierra Nevada... In Effect RECYCLING The Water... and Allowing the Hydroelectric Power Plants to Generate Electricity... In My Area, SMUD Generates all Electricity Using Power Plants on the American River... But They Create NO Electricity Without Rain... 

 

closeup of golden bear at the Klamath River Bridge - Yurok Reservation

Sadly... The Klamath is a River is Having a Water Crisis too... It is Home to The YUROK and HOOPA Tribes. When I worked at the Welfare office in Eureka I Had a LOT Of Contact With People from those Tribes... They REALLY Understand The Salmon as They Have been Living in Harmony for a Thousand Years... The Fish have a FIVE Year Cycle and If One Year (like 2021) has a Massive Kill then The Total Population is Reduced by 20%... The Four Years of Salmon living in the Ocean are not Affected... 

We Had a Massive Kill During the Presidency of George Bush the Son... Same Problem... The Potato Farmers in Oregon wanted the Water for crops but the Fishermen wanted to Keep the Fish Alive... My Brother in Law is a Tourist Fly Fisherman who came out here from Delaware on Vacation specifically to Fish the Klamath and Trinity River... 

What Finally Happened was there was a Huge Loss of Money for the Motel Owners, Tour Guides and Restaurants who depend on the Salmon to Attract Tourists... about ten times the Increase in profit of the Potato Farmers...

"Why do we allow fresh water from the 
Sacramento River to flow into the Ocean?"

after all... 
We Pump the Colorado River Dry before it Gets to the Ocean in Mexico... and No One Complains About THAT!

all the water from the Colorado River is used to Drink, Water Crops, Fill Swimming Pools, Shower, Water Animals and Make Ice Cubes for a Scotch on the Rocks Beverage...

I say leave Nature ALONE but cut down on human reproduction to reach for a better, more equitable, balance. Humans have already altered, disrupted and destroyed far too much on the planet!  So much in fact, we’re causing thousands of species of animals, plants and insects to go extinct by the day! Enough is enough!  This Central Valley used to be home to deer, antelope, bear, and thousands of other species of both animals and plants.  Now they are crowed out by humans for growing endless mono-crops for human a cattle feed and housing.  Its selfish, greedy and insane. And not just here, the whole Earth is  being similarly destroy for human USE and its  the only home we have in the Universe!  All  because of not having the foresight to control our own  f’g numbers!

Of course, power hungry world and church leaders with politicians leading the way, like more and  more people to fill their coffers!!
back to the story now in progress: California Rice Farmers Pump Water from The Thermalito Afterbay Downstream from the Oroville Dam to Water Their Crops. This Year the Oroville Dam is at Historic Record Low Water Levels. So Low that the Hydro Electric Power Generating Station was TURNED OFF...

Thermalito Afterbay Downstream from Oroville CA


What IF? Would Pumping all that water out of the River and Into Fields that are Growing Crops Change the Climate of California's Central Valley? In the Summer, all that water would evaporate and then fall as rain when those clouds meet the Sierra Nevada Mountains... In General, the Wind Flows from West to East... WE NEED RAIN...

The Objection to Pumping the Sacramento River Dry is That Salmon Need the Water to Survive... and They Would Go Extinct... In That One River... Other Rivers, Like The Klamath and The Columbia and Rivers in Canada and Alaska would NOT Be Changed... and The Salmon Would Continue to Survive There...

and... What IF Salmon Became Extinct? The Drought is The Western USA Is Putting Salmon in the Klamath River in Danger Right Now... Even With The Dams being Removed...
It's Entirely Possible That Salmon are Not Important...
