FOCUS: Take your rage, terror & devastation & channel it for critically important use. Run! Run for every LOCAL office/position, no matter how seemingly small, NOW! School boards, election officials, city councils, all of it. Flip your priorities & engage-this is the ground game.

Failure isn’t an option because, if I fail, I’m failing children, and I’m not going to fail children. It is my job to show up for them and to protect them and to ensure their health and safety and well-being in this state.

Y'all.
Senator Cavanaugh is still going. It's been more than 3 weeks. She's still holding the Nebraska legislature to a standstill over how they plan to target trans kids.
Seriously. I will remember the fight she is showing forever.
She's going to stop this bill.

After hours of heartbreaking testimonies from trans kids, adults, parents of trans kids, medical professionals, and allies, the Florida Board of Medicine UNANIMOUSLY voted down an amendment protecting gender affirming care. SHAME.!
Anyone working to stop human beings from learning about our complete collective histories is a coward.

Honoring one of the least honorable men in America makes no sense! Philadelphians are right to rally against it.

Fun Fact: Child Marriage is already legal in 43 US states.
Only Delaware, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, and Rhode Island have set the minimum age at 18 and eliminated all exceptions - All Blue States

A conservative state like Montana is still seeing a representative push forward a bill to cover ALL gender affirming care (not just on medicaid, but for all insurance plans).
Why do we not see more liberal states doing this?

The trans community is vast, diverse, and nuanced. Please help us reflect our community's diversity by sharing your story with us in the U.S. Trans Survey today. ustranssurvey.org

Perhaps the #GOP needs to reevaluate the strategy of attacking a small population of children as a way to gain power…

This is why we'll win the fight for trans rights. Because we're not a concept to be debated. We're your family, your neighbors, your colleagues, & more.
& if you don't think you know us, rest assured—even 30,000' in the sky—you're never far from someone who cares about us. [3/3]

Ballot measures to protect abortion access and reproductive freedom are UNDEFEATED tonight.
5-0.
The pundits were wrong. Abortion matters. Abortion motivated. Abortion won.

We bet on the people of Pennsylvania - and you didn’t let us down
And I won’t let you down. Thank you.
