These homophobes were yelling Westboro Baptist-style anti-LGBT+ slogans. What do you think I’m gonna do? Take them seriously?😂💃🏽🪩
If you want to associate w/ their views, that’s your business.
But NY-14 will ALWAYS have a champion for LGBTQ+ people on my watch. Period. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️💕

EXCITED for this collab w/ @usfca Prof. #SergioDeLaTorre on his #DACA sculpture, a play on #iconic LOVE sculpture by @robertindiana. He seeks to "re-contextualize the meaning of the word love from a visual questioning of our relationship with immigrants." #DreamerFund#Art

Where I am right now. North Dakota. Working on the ground. My fave thing to do as a journalist. Being on the ground. And in case you’re wondering why am I in North Dakota? It’s because this state has seen the greatest percentage growth of Latinos in the last decade. Hello futuro.
With the help of #GGULaw Professor Monica Valencia and Centro Legal de La Raza, Deisy secured asylum in the U.S. and a new life for herself and her three children.

As a survivor, I am thinking about how Brett Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas are credibly accused of having violated and harassed women and are now the ones about to deny us our right to abortion care.
Abusers do not belong in public office. Period.
