Last week, Governor Lujan Grisham signed the New Mexico Voting Rights Act into law, advancing the fundamental rights of New Mexicans.
States across the country must continue to take steps to strengthen our democracy.
Holy shit. Rep. Jamaal Bowman is directly calling out Republican members of Congress as they walk out of the Capitol building right now. We need to confront & expose every one of them. Make them answer. This is leadership and truly amazing.
While Republicans say that there's nothing we can do about mass shootings, Democrats have a plan to protect America's children: reinstate the assault weapons ban.
Your political survival is nothing compared to the survival of our Nation's children.
This white man had the caucasity to imply that prejudice experienced by some white people today is somehow comparable to the centuries of racism faced by people of color in America. The surgical takedown was executed to perfection.
70% of Americans have less than $1000 in savings, a generation has been priced out of homeownership, people go bankrupt from getting sick. Yet we always seem to have the $ to bail out the rich.

America is in a state of emergency for teenage girls. And with radical anti-choice Christofascists stripping girls and women of their reproductive rights, it's even more alarming. (And, BTW, just remember these stats only include REPORTED assaults). https://t.co/ufZXTeRY5F
Lastly, perhaps the thing that kills me the most, IS THESE FUCKERS NEVER TRULY GAVE UP ANYTHING TO BEGIN WITH! They were never truly locked down or quarantining, unlike the shit we've been doing for the past 4 years to keep 3 vulnerable people safe. They are such little bitches.
I think 2023 will actually be harder because none of us, not a single person except for the massively privileged, has had a moment to recover from the sheer horror and unrelenting brutality of the past few years.
In 3 yrs, COVID has killed more than 1M in the U.S., disabled many others and cut life expectancy by 2.5 yrs. Despite declarations that the pandemic is over, COVID remains the 3rd leading cause of death. We’re at the end of the beginning, not the beginning of the end, of COVID.
Beginning TODAY, veterans can get emergency suicide crisis care from any VA medical facility or outside provider.
