@haymaymj The mentorship I’ve got today, for both my career and personal life would have been incredibly helpful in earlier years of my adulthood. Specially if they’re looking to be entrepreneurs, understanding contracts and the importance of negotiation, 401k/IRA’s (finances overall)
Every teacher, every person who interacts with teenagers, spread the most excellent word: All Foster care teens can now go to MN colleges for free. This is so huge & good!
I have spent the past few days researching the training of Uvalde officers, including the tactics they were expected to use to halt school shooters.
The documents are jarring. Here’s a thread of our findings so far.
1/9
Uvalde is a largely Latino community. At a press conference earlier today about the shooting, authorities said nothing in Spanish and did not address any Spanish-speaking journalists.
The best way to make this progress is to stop talking about what we can’t agree on and start talking about what we can and getting to work. No matter if that’s climate change gun safety healthcare whatever it might be progress is progress.
Let’s get to work.
In less than 24 hours we already have over 100 marches in 46 states set for June 11.
We are demanding action on gun violence from Congress not as liberals and conservatives but as Americans who are fighting for a more perfect union where our kids are safe.
BREAKING: Authorities now confirm they are examining the response of police in Uvalde in the shooting of 19 children amid conflicting witness statements, including what steps they took to stop the gunman. Part of the review will include a timeline based on radio traffic. (1/3)

Let’s make this time different. Americans can demand action on something the vast majority of us agree on. Let’s stop debating and do something. That’s what we did after Parkland with a Republican state legislature and it saved lives. We need congress to act.
