Wednesday is the Housing Elements Workshop #3 at 6 pm.

The entire document is 590 pages. The comment period ends July 14. This workshop is not on the City website front page as of 1:35 pm on June 25.

The Housing Element Draft is available for comment from now until Thursday, July 14, 2022. Do not leave this to the last minute.

Pregnant and In Jail (A Song)

Carol Denney
Wednesday June 29, 2022 - 12:51:00 PM



a woman scorned is one thing it can get pretty bad

but force her into childbirth and she can get pretty mad

she's going to start to organize it's going to happen fast

and if you all get in her way she's going to kick your ass



CHORUS:

pregnant and in jail , pregnant and in jail

let the men do all the work, we're pregnant and in jail (x2)
