GEORGIA: the election is TODAY. Stacey Abrams has a vision for equity and justice. She’d also be the first black woman governor in HISTORY.

Show up and vote for her today. And share this widely so others know, too.

Breaking: NJ gov signs automatic voter registration law. Could register 600,000 new voters. 13th state to enact AVR. Huge news for voting rights https://t.co/HWcF8aAS4O

@jamilsylvester @ShaunKing Thanks for sharing, Jams. This is such a good, brief summary of this vast issue (with great book recs).

Big protest for #StephonClark, the unarmed Black man who was shot and killed by police, happening in Sacramento right now. Protestors blocking the entrance to the Kings game.

In all seriousness, Black History Month is an opportunity to lift up the stories & voices of folks who too often go unrecognized. Use this month (and every month) to lift up the work of black feminists, black lgbtq folks, black immigrants, & black people who are incarcerated.

To equate Dreamers with MS-13 and criminal gangs was completely irresponsible.

[Yamiche Alcindor @Yamiche]

The Democrats pulled out a Kennedy speaking Spanish, talking about #MeToo and #BlackLivesMatter, and who is young. These midterms are going to be so interesting.

[Kamala Harris @KamalaHarris]

Dreamers should not be used as a bargaining chip or held hostage in exchange for anti-immigrant policies. #SOTU

[Clint Smith @ClintSmithIII]

Just to be clear: Trump brought out a grieving family to use as a part of a political performance meant to demonize immigrants as being inherently violent when the research clearly shows that immigrants, both documented & undocumented, commit less crime than native born Americans

[Clint Smith @ClintSmithIII]

Wild how you can work to advance the agenda of a racist sexual predator & still feel entitled enough to complain about celebrities reading a book that’s mean to your boss.

[Lawrence O'Donnell @Lawrence]

When a racist (George Wallace) ran for president in 1968, TV news did not hire commentators to defend the racism of the racist. We had to wait for 2016 for that to happen. In ‘68 the racist came in 3rd. In 2016 the racist won. TV news continues to pay defenders of the racist.

YOOOO Auntie Maxine went IN on 45. Sheesh.

"Let me be clear tonight. The people of Haiti have been through more... withstood more -- they've fought back against more injustice than our President ever has." Anderson Cooper choked back tears as he reflected on the devastating quake nearly 8 years ago https://t.co/Yuh5xe3P8Q

To our brothers, sisters, and friends in immigrant communities at home and across the world, know that we stand with you. Immigrants don’t just belong in America, immigrants have helped build America.
