Nine weeks of hustle & outreach. Nine weeks of believing we are in this together. Decades of strategy, grit + building. Wednesday’s terrorism seeks to distract us from what has been & what will be. So let’s take today to celebrate the orgs that brought us Tuesday’s victory:

Look out for those in politics who like to label themselves “fiscally responsible,” yet only seem to care about the price of justice - not the cost of oppression.
Everything has a price. And an unjust society is far costlier than one that invests in & values all people.

Yes, it’s a gateway to a prison cell and a permanent record for a disproportionate number of black and brown men. But, go ahead Mr Crime Bill, we wouldn’t want to starve the beast known as the prison industrial complex…
