I actually did come here to make friends.

If y'all aren't following the debate and protest around this last minute, horrific abortion ban bill in WV, you're missing some of the best and worst displays of humanity I've seen in awhile. Wish I could be in Charleston today.

This 12-year-old girl in West Virginia just stood up to lawmakers attempting to criminalize abortion with NO exceptions for victims of rape or incest.

“Some here say they are pro-life… What about my life?”

West Virginia is the fifth least affordable state in the country — not because its cost of living is particularly high, but because wages are so low. https://t.co/vt0DHPvsA4

My name is Dr. Sydnee Smirl McElroy and I am excited to announce today my candidacy for the WV House of Delegates 26th District. https://t.co/u7b6XAdQi9

Tucked away inside the Build Back Better Act was a four-year extension of an excise tax that funds a program that helps sick coal miners. The current rate of the tax will expire at the end of this year, and the program faces insolvency. My latest: https://t.co/tneYMVGNqf

@PodSaveAmerica @jonfavs @TVietor08 @jonlovett @danpfeiffer As someone who fully supports student loan debt forgiveness, I’ve always wondered how forgiveness can solve the problem if we don’t first address the cost of college and predatory loans in general. Won’t this just be a continuous issue without first addressing the root causes?

@jonfavs @JeffHorwitz @WSJ Haven’t seen polls, but, anecdotally, I know there are a decent number of progressives in the Richmond area who will vote for her. In such a tight race, that could make a difference.

[Stephanie Stanton @astephstanton]

@jonfavs @JeffHorwitz @WSJ Y’all’s VA Gov race coverage is missing the importance of the third party candidate here. Princess Blanding is an activist whose brother (Marcus David Peters) was killed by police a few years back.

Sen. Manchin’s op-ed on the #ForThePeopleAct is full of unsound, unserious arguments. 

Let’s unpack it.

[Stephanie Stanton @astephstanton]

@Sen_JoeManchin @Sen_JoeManchin Yes, we will all have to live with their decision. But, unlike the rest of the American people, you actually have the power to do something about it.

[Brian Schatz @brianschatz]

There were 54 votes in favor of enacting the January 6 Commission, and 35 opposed, but because our rules are completely bananas that means that the 35 WON THE VOTE. The filibuster must go.

@AkilahObviously What is happening with those teens, though?? The TEENS, Akilah! Help me understand!
