@Miriam2626 You think Jasmine wants to have armed guards?? You’re so close. Maybe try again.

[Charlie Gearing @GearingforTexas]

You missed one in the back, Greg! Parent here ✋ My family and district strongly oppose your #VoucherScam!

Plus, parents, aunts, uncles, godparents, grandparents, and any sentient Texan of either party can see right through the #VoucherScam meant to destroy our public schools!

[Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett @RepJasmine]

Whenever Republicans run out of ideas (hint: all the time) they run back to their old reliable: demonize trans folk.

My Republican colleague’s slurs and performative meltdowns don’t protect women. Reproductive rights do.

As the son of formerly undocumented immigrants, I find the mayor’s remarks not only deeply misleading but also harmful in their fearmongering. It’s easy for Eric to say the city will help deport immigrants committing violent crimes. Hell, I’d be happy to deport anyone committing violent crimes, including citizens. It sounds good, but the problem is that he’s scapegoating immigrants for political gain by conflating immigration with criminality and portraying undocumented people as a burden on our schools and hospitals.

Eric, like the Republicans he’s aligning with, ignores the fact that immigrants pay billions in taxes, often without access to the public benefits they help fund, and are vital to industries that support our communities. This kind of rhetoric inflames fear rather than addressing facts.

I fought for this country to defend the values of justice, equality, and opportunity, not to stand by while vulnerable communities are scapegoated for political gain. If the mayor and others like him truly believe immigrants and their children are only a “strain,” perhaps they should have been willing to go to war in my place. It’s ironic that while the mayor uses such divisive rhetoric, he’s comfortable with the children of immigrants risking their lives while serving on the Dallas Police Department and as part of his personal security detail.

Public safety is critical, but we should focus on targeting actual violent offenders without demonizing entire groups. Fearmongering might get attention, but it does nothing to solve the complex challenges we face. This is just another example of what a truly reprehensible person @Johnson4Dallas is.

[Jasmine Crockett @JasmineForUS]

I get that we are but imperfect beings on this Earth, especially those of us in “leadership,” but DAMN, can we not just agree on basic shit like if you didn’t grow up needing active shooter drills, then children today or even tomorrow shouldn’t need them too?! Can we just say kids deserve better? We have wasted millions attacking books… we’ve wasted millions attacking history… we’ve wasted millions worried about who plays what sports in school & the last time I checked the number 1 cause of death for children is gun violence and yet NO solutions on that from my “esteemed” colleagues.

I’m tired… and frankly we ALL should be if we have a heart!

Georgia deserves our sincere thoughts… the ones that lead to thoughtful legislative solutions & prayers for the passage of & prevention of some of this senseless devastation.

We can now step forward by electing our first woman President. VP Harris is one of the most qualified people to seek the Presidency and with our help, she 👏 will 👏 win 👏 & send Trumpism + its hateful, regressive, backwards policies back to the depths from which they came.

[Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett @RepJasmine]

This display is in the same building as my office.

Republicans are lying to you when they say they support IVF. This is what they truly believe. They will ban IVF the first chance they get.

They are playing in your face.

for perspective, trump was found guilty on more counts than there are tracks on the tortured poets department: the anthology

[Wendy Davis @wendydavis]

In another attempt to create a back door route to “fetal personhood” This is some scary stuff my friends.They want to own our bodies. Freedom/liberty anyone???

This is where extremists want to take us, friends. And only our votes can save us. #MyBodyMyBallot

This guy mentions that he runs a "pregnancy center" - Are you aware that Texas lawmakers voted to send YOUR tax dollars to fund these places to the tune of $80m a year?

[Rachael Nelson Gearing @RachaelVirginia]

@Canaansdad1987 She’s my congresswoman and was my state rep. She’s literally this amazing in person all the time!

My heart breaks for all the women in Alabama trying desperately to have a baby via IVF whose dreams are now shattered because of what republican lawmakers have decided. This is beyond cruel.

[Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett @RepJasmine]

Nex Benedict should be here today.

My heart breaks for their family, their friends, their community, and all the years they never got to experience.

Every legislator, pundit, and promoter of anti-trans hate should feel this loss on their conscience.

[Jennifer Haberkorn @jenhab]

Somewhere in Alabama there is at least one woman, hoping IVF could help her have a baby, who just saw several thousand dollars and ~7-10 days of injecting herself with drugs all go down the drain.

[Stephen A Smith @stephenasmith]

This is a disgrace. It is inhumane.

On Texas’ new immigration bill.

[Dallas City Council District 2 @CityofDallasD2]

I am excited to announce District 2’s first ever Gun Buyback Program! This is a great opportunity for folks to voluntarily exchange firearms for gift cards if they want to. We will also have informational resources for those seeking help with challenging or dangerous situations.

[Rachael Nelson Gearing @RachaelVirginia]

@JasmineForUS I read all these tweets in your voice and it makes my day. Let 'em know, Congresswoman!

We miss you back in Dallas but we know you are working for us up there!

[Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett @RepJasmine]

On this day 25 years ago, Matthew Shepard was murdered in a vile hate crime—and that same anti-LGBTQI+ hate continues to fester today.

Alongside my @EqualityCaucus colleagues, I'm dedicated to honoring Matthew’s legacy by ensuring the safety of LGBTQI+ people across the country.
