@Lin_Manuel my 9 year old niece is at @LurieChildrens getting treated for bone cancer. Hamilton is her favorite, and after watching twice on her phone yesterday, she woke up with this dream. #oneminuteintermission
To everyone saying that these Parkland teenagers are planted and scripted, you obviously haven't worked with the students I see every year @HOBY. They are the movers and shakers and will change the world. I support all of the Parkland students looking to be the change!!
I’m in total awe of the extraordinary students in Florida. Like every movement for progress in our history, gun reform will take unyielding courage and endurance. But @barackobama and I believe in you, we’re proud of you, and we’re behind you every step of the way.
I’m so proud of these students right now. They are standing up, not backing down, and showing what it means to speak truth to power. They make my heart glow. Please please please we need real gun control. It works. https://t.co/fNCKZWBy20
This is idiotic. Not you though, I’m not saying YOU’RE idiotic, only that you’re repeating dangerous, heartless, spineless, and stupid conspiracy theories. Stop it. (My teens and all their friends are that articulate) https://t.co/UmMrLgswFD
We lack systemized ways to track data on guns, gun violence, & who’s shooting & being shot because the NRA has used its $$ to make GATHERING THAT DATA ILLEGAL. They’ve made data gathering, one of the pillars of democracy & how we properly govern, against the law.
Young people have helped lead all our great movements. How inspiring to see it again in so many smart, fearless students standing up for their right to be safe; marching and organizing to remake the world as it should be. We've been waiting for you. And we've got your backs.
