On Monday we ended carotid restraint in San Diego, and now we have a chance to end it across California. My office has been in discussions with @AsmMikeGipson all week, and Assembly Bill 1196 has my endorsement and support. Thank you Assemblymember Gipson. — PolitiTweet.org

A lot of San Diegans have a passion for fishing and boating, and the City has been able to partner with the County to reopen all lakes and reservoirs to the public. Thanks to @shermansd7 @dianne_jacob and @SteveVaus for working with us to get this done. Here’s the schedule: https://t.co/d4AxxiN9Y0 — PolitiTweet.org

More California agencies are joining @SanDiegoPD in stopping carotid restraints. It’s an important step, and they’re in good company: over a dozen departments in the San Diego region did the same this week. Thank you @WatsonvillePD, @SantaCruzPolice and @ChiefAndyMills! — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

We have deep wounds in our nation, and we can start the healing here. Some in the community have been concerned about SDPD’s use of carotid restraints. I hear you. @ChiefNisleit hears you. @GGomezD9 and @CD4Monica have advocated for you. This technique will end immediately. https://t.co/ykFeA5tmzE — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

America is grieving. People are scared, angry, and in despair. People want things to change. Our nation can be better than this. So let’s use this as an opportunity to see what we can do differently. https://t.co/5A05wO0Zmz — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

When we see injustice, words are good. Peaceful action is even better. This was our message to San Diegans today. https://t.co/Zo2j9djmKD — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

What happened to George Floyd never should have happened. Not there, not anywhere. We’re taking steps to ensure it never happens here. This morning we met with community leaders and shared that @ChiefNisleit has decided to stop SDPD’s use of the carotid restraint, effective now. https://t.co/GBhfT3P3dX — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

Peaceful protesters march because they care about our community, justice, and accountability. Looters and rioters do not. We won’t stand for anyone hijacking this moment to perpetuate violence. The City will keep working to maintain order. — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

We hear you. We hear your passion and we hear your pain. The mission of police is to facilitate and protect the ability to peacefully exercise the 1st Amendment, because we will not tolerate violence in San Diego. Please exercise our right as Americans to protest — peacefully. https://t.co/BywlyTneAG — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

George Floyd’s death is a reminder, especially during these difficult times, that we have to care for each other. Because our actions affect one another. We're all connected. We're not adversaries, we're Americans. And we're all in this together. — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

George Floyd's death is a tragedy and never should have happened. The actions by Minneapolis police officers were wrong, unacceptable, and @SanDiegoPD and I condemn them in the strongest possible terms. They robbed a man of his life. George should be alive today. https://t.co/lJNeF7vAoc — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

The more we reopen our economy, the greater the need for rapid, COVID-19 testing. The men and women at @my_helix are on track to implement large-scale testing to help address the millions of tests we'll need nationally to open up safely! 🧬 🧪 ➡️ https://t.co/idTt3GkvE0 https://t.co/m1eNrHSxLU — PolitiTweet.org

A few more steps remain, but with the City Council's approval we can now move forward toward initiating escrow so @SDSU can break ground! #GoAztecs — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

It takes a team to get an agreement like this done. Thank you @SDSU and @CalState for your commitment, and @MaraWElliott for working to protect the City's interests. — PolitiTweet.org

Kevin Faulconer @Kevin_Faulconer

This is a complex agreement and we got it done right. I support the terms and know this outcome is something our whole city can be proud of. https://t.co/C1ZDFDmAPO — PolitiTweet.org

Slow Streets are picking up speed in San Diego! Folks have loved having more room to physically distance while walking and jogging outside. Now we’re doubling the size of the program by adding 100 new blocks. Do you want your block on the list? Tell us: https://t.co/fYGiLdak7X — PolitiTweet.org
