This is beyond disgusting.
🧵 On Saturday, January 27th at the @KamalaHarris "Get The Vote Out" event in Las Vegas, two visible members of the Muslim community wearing hijabs were not let in by campaign officials. The Biden/Harris campaign is clearly fanning the flames of Islamophobia.

🇵🇸 It’s official! ✌🏼 400,000+ marched on Washington for Gaza today demanding President Biden end the genocide in Gaza and stop all funding to #ApartheidIsrael. #LetGazaLive #FreePalestine #March4Gaza

That’s right. Abortion justice is a winning issue with the people. Our fight for reproductive freedom, bodily autonomy, and collective liberation is far from over — and when we fight, we win.
Last year we came together to elect repro freedom champions, reject candidates who support abortion bans, and lock reproductive freedom into state constitutions. And we’re going to do it bigger and better this year. 😎

Formosa Plastics is responsible for violating environmental, health, and human rights at home in St. James, in Texas, and abroad in Vietnam. That's why we're in DC today: to demand justice for ALL victims of this corporate polluter. teapawt.net/i/broadcasts/1BRKjPooL…

The March 23,2024 election is the first step in turning the leadership around in Louisiana. Vote for progressive DSCC candidates based on your state house district!
So I am hearing that 2 time losing Candidate Caroline Fayard is making calls that she wants to be Chair of the La Democratic Party! Ran as strongly anti choice both races ! We will not let an anti choice woman lead our party ! No idea what makes her think she is qualified😑

Yep. "An election for judge in Baton Rouge was decided just 2 years ago by 2 votes. No judge found votes to throw out to create a new election. They let the Republican take the bench." teapawt.net/GaryChambersJr/status/…
People don’t steal things from you that have no value. People steal something because it’s worth something to someone. The work to steal the Black vote and Black power is as old as America, just new tricks, playing the same game. Henry Whitehorn will appeal the ruling of the judge who voided the election of the sheriff of Caddo Parish. This isn’t over. If the courts decide to stick to this ruling and void the election, it’s the job of Black folks and forward thinking white folks to make John Nicholson wishes he had kept his 1 vote loss. An election for judge in Baton Rouge was decided just 2 years ago by 2 votes. No judge found votes to throw out to create a new election. They let the Republican take the bench. People only steal things they find value in, I hope more of us take this as a way to see what’s happening in 2023. #CivicsforthePeople #AlwaysRising

Email councilmembers NOW [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Just say NO to criminalizing people feeding their neighbors!
City Council has quietly placed their ordinance to criminalize feeding the homeless back on the agenda. Will probably pass today.
