These are the same people who don’t trust a ballot being dropped in a dropbox, but think a live baby is just fine. Make it make sense. https://t.co/hjcRyu7lDO

Attn @GovHolcomb: you & the general assembly have put the interests of a radical minority over the needs of this state. In doing so, YOU have made #Indiana less competitive and created a hostile environment for women. #BansOffIndiana #AbortionIsHealthcare #INLegis

[BLM INDY @indy10people]

The governor of Indiana has signed SB1 into law, effective 9/15.

In a state that boasts high eviction rates, homelessness rates, food apartheids, teacher shortages, and robust police budgets, an abortion ban is yet another targeted act of legislative and state violence.

🚨 ACTION ALERT 🚨

The Indiana Senate is set to vote TOMORROW on banning abortion. We need you at the Statehouse with us & @w4cindiana to stop this cruel bill.

Plan to be at the Statehouse all day on Saturday, and wear green! 🟢

Stay tuned for more details. #BansOffIndiana

[Aly Austin, MPA @AlyAustinIN]

Just horrible. #FreeThemAll https://t.co/Fg7XRBc84H

[ACLU of Indiana @ACLUIndiana]

🚨 BREAKING: Over 200 Indiana businesses in 39 cities have come out in support of protecting Hoosiers' reproductive freedom.

Simply put, restricting access to abortion is bad for business. #DontBanEqualityIN

This year everyone's attention has been focused on Congress passing major climate legislation. But at the same time, state legislatures and Governors have quietly passed new climate and clean energy efforts across the country. Long thread of the wins you may have missed in 2022:

This thread will be dedicated to the victims of the mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas.

As a parent, my heart is broken seeing these faces and their ages.

My condolences to their families during this difficult time 🙏🏻

Health experts say the U.S. may be in a “hidden” COVID-19 wave — one much larger than reported data would suggest. https://t.co/koWds6C8Fb

[Aly Austin, MPA @AlyAustinIN]

At this point, being against gun control is enabling mass murder. #Uvalde

[CBS News @CBSNews]

The number of active shooter incidents in the U.S. rose by 52.5% from 2020 to 2021, and over four years, from 2017 to 2021, there was a 96.8% increase, according to the FBI. https://t.co/z7um33QPDO

This thread will be dedicated to the victims of the mass shooting in Buffalo.

This is Ruth Whitfield, 86. Her son, the former Buffalo Fire Commissioner, said she was on her way from visiting her husband in a nursing home and stopped at the store to get something to eat.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

49-51, codifying Roe fails in the Senate.

No Manchin.
No Collins.
No Murkowski.

70% of Americans want Roe upheld. This is undemocratic.

[Charles DeLoach @DeLoach_NC]

We need Democrats on every news channel across the country talking about abortion rights like this.
