This is truly great news.
And for people to truly be freed from having their lives haunted by unjust marijuana convictions, we must work to *expunge* records beyond pardoning.
Between that and descheduling cannabis, we can make huge steps forward for so many communities.
Third: We classify marijuana at the same level as heroin – and more serious than fentanyl. It makes no sense. I’m asking @SecBecerra and the Attorney General to initiate the process of reviewing how marijuana is scheduled under federal law.
ICYMI: The #INSen race is neck and neck!
A vote for @GoMcDermott is a vote to codify #RoevWade and stop Indiana’s abortion ban for good.
As for @SenToddYoung? He’s 100% anti-choice and too extreme for Hoosiers.
Republicans would like you to know that they need you to be poor so they can exploit that poverty to use you for wars, and then when you come back they’ll vote against funding your healthcare.
A political director for Texas Right to Life, the premier anti-abortion group in the state, has been arrested for - wait for it - the online solicitation of a minor.
Because “protect the lives of children,” right? https://t.co/h9zoFD8saN
@Jim_Jordan I’m an American that already paid off 2 sets of student loans. I also have a heart, so I’m cheering for any American this will help. It’s great news!
“#SB1 will not reduce the demand for abortions among Indiana residents.”
Outlawing abortion will lead to women making life-threatening decisions.
Indiana’s F-rated quality of life will get worse because of the @indgop’s extremist agenda. #BansOffIndiana https://t.co/XpH50jLUVp
@INDems @GovHolcomb @indgop Well Indiana, stop whining about the “brain drain”. Every young person should get the hell out of this awful state as fast as they can. I’m definitely ready to take my tax dollars elsewhere.
Indiana has the third highest maternal mortality rate in the country, which disproportionately impacts women of color.
Restricting access to safe, legal abortion care would put even more pregnant Hoosiers' lives at risk.
@phil_diane @jbxfade @GovHolcomb It is an abortion as is having a D&C for miscarriage. The way many state laws have been proposed, these things could be illegal. That’s the problem, lawmakers just want to control things without understanding all of the implications.
@GovHolcomb Then you better start changing everything about how this state functions. Step up and take care of all of these babies, mandate maternity leave, fight for universal healthcare. Otherwise you’re just forced birth, not pro-life (which of course we all know to be the case).
They brought *bombs* to the U.S. Capitol.
They said they wanted to *assassinate* the Speaker of the House and the Vice President.
How can anyone think doing nothing — just moving on like this never happened — is a good idea? That’s ludicrous.
U.S. Capitol security failures need to be fully investigated.
We spend billions of dollars on national security and today failed to protect our Nation’s Capital from a lawless mob.
Unacceptable!
