The Louisville shooter used an AR-15 to kill his coworkers and shatter the community. These weapons of war have no place in our communities. Tell Congress to restore the assault weapon ban & help us #EndGunViolence. https://t.co/OoPuKtynjO @AFTunion

Commentary: The GOP campaign to prevent voter fraud — in a state that boasts elections with a 99.98% accuracy rate — and mandate only certain forms of photo ID to stop voter impersonation — in a state that reports zero cases of it — is a partisan hoax.

“The banning of all books from schools until they can be reviewed by state authorities is as grotesque and un-American an act as can be committed. It’s a desecration of America’s most sacred freedom by DeSantis, a low man who seeks power by bullying.” https://t.co/5eRH67GpH0
