PASS THE SAVE ACT NOW!
I was able to obtain an ID as a black, disabled, widowed, HOMELESS, mother of 5. I used my married name, in a wheelchair, rode the bus and I had to get my ID through General Delivery at the Post Office. But I got it.
This was me in 2017. Shortly after we’d lost everything. Everything in this pic was given to me by people I’d met along the way.
My wheelchair came from a free clinic. They gave it to me when they saw my sons carrying me on their backs because all the ligaments were torn in my knee.
That purse was given to me by the stripper next door in the motel where we stayed. I was kind to her when she was struggling.
Those sunglasses came from a bar tender who would see me roll past him in my wheelchair. I liked to sing karaoke at a casino across the street from the motel.
Despite my circumstances, my life was manageable. It wasn’t great. But we were pushing through. So when someone says that there’s some reason to not pass the Save Act because it’s not fair, show them this tweet.
I voted for President Trump in 2016 because when he said, “What the hell do you have to loose?” Because I was being evicted, car getting repossessed, and disabled with no health care.
People like me are the ones who suffer when waste, fraud, and abuse are allowed to happen because of unsecured elections.
PASS THE SAVE ACT NOW!
Paying tribute to Michael Reagan, who passed away this week. As someone who is also adopted, and whose political views shifted from Democrat to Republican inspired by his father President Ronald Reagan, it was a profound honor to photograph him at an event in Houston in 2007
Also worth noting that the “healthy” range for BP was reduced, making previously “acceptable” BP suddenly “high”. Good way to get more people on a liifetime of BP meds.
@MichaelBerrySho I’ve never drank or smoked weed and thought this was the dumbest thing ever for them to do. The fact that they agreed so quickly on this makes me want to ask more questions
Greg Abbott would be doing Dan Patrick a huge favor by vetoing his backward SB3. The mullah tendencies of Neocons cost elections. This was a solution for no problem, while Texans DO care about property taxes & get no relief. Huge mistake.
@DaddyPilot213@Damirror91 you are speaking from a position of ignorance to make such a broad assumption. not sure who you are trying to impress, but you are for sure not accurate in general
