Yes, the newsletter is reaching you a day earlier than usual. With Thanksgiving this Thursday, we wanted to get the news out before the holiday...
Personally, I like this time of year. Not for the hustle and bustle of the holidays, but for the quiet time. There is nothing I so desperately that I will stand in line for hours just to get the hottest deal of the season. The sound of nature is what I desire most...peaceful.
Of course, who can make it through the holidays without searching for the perfect gifts?
Need some ideas? Here is what is on my list:
- The gift of grace.
- The gift of friendship.
- The gift of time.
- The gift of encouragement.
- The gift of understanding.
They are priceless gifts! Good for giving and receiving. They won't break your bank, but they will fill your heart to overflowing.
Sincerely,
Rorie Johnston

Every year since 1998, the Escondido Police Department has hosted an annual Christmas party to give kids who have been the victims of abuse, neglect, and violent crime a Christmas they might not otherwise get to experience. This year the party will be held on Thursday, December 7, 2017. The event will include food, a magic show, face painting, a visit with Santa Claus, and every child in attendance will receive gifts.

Changing the Culture in Sacramento
By Assemblymember Marie Waldron
Last month 140 legislators, staffers, consultants and lobbyists signed a letter declaring that there is a "pervasive culture of sexual harassment" in Sacramento. Signatories include six current legislators, a Board of Equalization member; both Republicans and Democrats. Allegations have been made against current and past legislators.
Unfortunately, given the power and influence of some of the alleged perpetrators, the consequences of speaking up about inappropriate behavior can be significant. For too long, this problem has been swept under the rug, with victims afraid to speak out or to identify those responsible.
Assemblymember Laura Friedman (D - Glendale), Chair of Assembly Rules Subcommittee on Harassment, Discrimination, Retaliation Prevention and Response, and myself as Vice Chair, announced that our committee will gather information about mistreatment from victims and examine current practices and policies. We will do all that we can to ensure that a culture that seems to wink at abuse, harassment and obnoxious behavior changes immediately. In addition, victims must feel safe when reporting these incidents; we must ensure that retaliation or threats of retaliation are not tolerated.
The Legislative Women's Caucus is advocating for a bi-partisan, bi-cameral approach with the singular end goal of no more victims. Connecting victims to services, creating a safe reporting system, holding perpetrators accountable and changing the Capitol culture are critical sub goals.
California has a longstanding reputation of supporting justice and equality for all. Apparently however, we still have a long way to go.
Position and power should never be used as weapons.
Minority Floor Leader Marie Waldron, R-Escondido, represents the 75
th Assembly District in the California Legislature, which includes the communities of
Bonsall, Escondido, Fallbrook, Hidden Meadows, Pala, Palomar Mountain, Pauma Valley, Rainbow, San Marcos, Temecula, Valley Center and Vista.
