[Wendell Pierce @WendellPierce]

Elections have consequences. The Supreme Court will be changed for a generation. I’ll never see a moderate court again in my lifetime. Alito and Thomas will step down and Trump will appoint 40 year old partisans to the bench. The damage he is about to inflict on our institutions the next 2 years will be irreparable.

What is democracy? It’s tough to admit, but the US is no longer seen as the world’s most stable democracy. This election showed that! True democracy thrives when people engage, hold leaders accountable & stand up for fairness, equality, & justice for all. #Election2024

Elect @ColinAllredTX

[Olivia Julianna 🇺🇸🦅🗳️ @0liviajulianna]

Donald Trump just said Kamala Harris will never get the votes in the U.S senate to codify Roe v Wade.

We CAN get that majority by electing @ColinAllredTX.

It is the most likely pickup opportunity for Democrats this year. WE CAN DO THIS!

Happy Heavenly Birthday! Sending love to his family on today.

[Nina Turner @ninaturner]

Tamir Rice should be celebrating his 22nd birthday today with his loved ones.

Only in America:

convicted felons cannot vote in the upcoming election (except in two states), but a man convicted of 34 felony counts could potentially be elected President of the United States this November.

Trust the collective wisdom of the people

[Secretary Xavier Becerra @SecBecerra]

Today @HHSGov through @HHSOCR announced a proposed rule, updating its regulation implementing Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, that prohibits discrimination on the basis of disability.

Y’all … *ahem* this tweet is for us scaredy cats, and us only!

#TheBlackening is NOT scary! You can go see it! It’s more comedy than horror. There are a few jump scares, a few deaths, but it’s not gory! It’s not a regular horror film! You’re gonna be FINE! Take yo ass on now!

[Dominique Brown Washington @Dee_Washington1]

Moving forward if you ask me to teach you to play spades I will. #theblackening

[LBJ Women's Campaign School @LBJWCS]

Cohort 4 has officially launched! Last weekend women from across the nation joined together in Austin to kick-off the 2023 LBJ Women's Campaign School! The weekend was jam-packed with passion, community, gratitude, and learning! #LBJWCS #WomenInPolitics #WhatStartsHere

Attacks on democracy undermine the fundamental principles of fairness, justice, and representation. We must stand together to protect our institutions and ensure that every voice is heard #DefendDemocracy #ProtectOurRights https://t.co/x5J5NTn2Uq

[Keith Fitz-Gerald @fitz_keith]

Looking forward to a great conversation! 💯😀

Overdraft fees disproportionately affect people of color & underserved communities. Financial institutions must stop exploiting vulnerable populations & start providing fair and equitable services #financialjustice #equality https://t.co/NvMltJjkaE

[Dominique Brown Washington @Dee_Washington1]

"Social justice” is not a buzzword or a trend. It is an essential pursuit to correct the systemic problems at the core of our society. We must prioritize equality, fairness, and inclusivity to create a world that truly works for everyone. #socialjustice #systemicchange

[Dominique Brown Washington @Dee_Washington1]

It's important to advocate for policies that simplify and streamline the redetermination process, while also addressing the underlying systemic issues that perpetuate healthcare disparities. #Medicaid #HealthEquity #UnderservedCommunities

[Dominique Brown Washington @Dee_Washington1]

Medicaid redetermination plays a crucial role in health equity by ensuring those eligible for Medicaid continue to receive coverage. The process can also create barriers for people, especially those from underserved communities. #Medicaid #HealthEquity #UnderservedCommunities

[Epilepsy Foundation of America @EpilepsyFdn]

Thank you @RepJimCosta & @RepGregMurphy for launching & co-chairing the Congressional Epilepsy Caucus, which will help increase support for issues & build champions in Congress to speak up for the 3.4 million Americans living with #epilepsy. Learn more: https://t.co/iLKeFMTgh1

HB 1315- Seizure Safe Schools Act was successfully voted out of the House today! Congratulations @Denisefor80

[Dominique Brown Washington @Dee_Washington1]

Super proud of my home state. HB 1315 passed unanimously in committee. This legislation is important for students with epilepsy or seizure disorder so that they can feel safe & supported in school! Thank you @Denisefor80 for sponsoring legislation.

[Democratic Party of Arkansas @ArkDems]

“My teacher did not know what [my seizures] were. She thought I was being disrespectful.”

12-year-old Reece Shipley — who suffered from 200 seizures a day — urged the House Education Committee to pass The Seizure Safe Schools Act from @Denisefor80

The bill passed unanimously!

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

I am praying for #GeorgeFloyd’s family who, after erroneous, terribly insensitive comments that never should have been made, are enduring more today than they were yesterday.
