🎉 Big news! 🎉 In August, I'll be an Asst. Prof. of #SocialWork at Univ. of @north_alabama. I'm excited to offer service in all things #MacroSW w/ @NASWAlabama. I also made a collage of some of my rejection letters to help normalize it. Never give up on your dreams, friends ❤️
So proud of my friend @DawnLCarty and her daughter, Zoey. Through mama bear’s citizen advocacy, she was able to get her daughter’s medical cannabis (needed to keep seizures at bay) kept in the school nurse’s office with all the other children’s medicine. #MacroSW 🎉#MondayMood 🎉
So very proud of my friend, @DawnLCarty, who - in fighting for her daughter - is paving the way for others. And is a shining example of what can be accomplished with citizen advocacy👏🏼 #MacroSW#MondayMotivation#CannabisNews
Talk about #BlackMamaMagic! A week ago, @DawnLCarty and I were brainstorming how she could best advocate for her daughter to have her medicinal #cannabis in her school. And just a short time later, she's achieved it! Advocacy works, friends! #MacroSW 🙌🏼❤️💪🏽#MondayMotivation
Don’t fucking talk about being pro life when you let kids die at the borders, when you want people to die because they can’t afford healthcare, when you want people to die going to war with Iran because Trump has an ego to undue everything Obama did.
You aren’t pro fucking life.

In reference to President Trump’s recent tweets and media reports, the Montgomery County Department of Police will not participate with ICE regarding any immigration enforcement efforts next week or at any other time.
This week, 267 of my colleagues in the House voted to prevent DOJ from taking action against businesses and individuals in states which have legalized marijuana. We need to continue to respect states’ rights and pass #SAFEBanking.

On Tues we defeated serial home-rule violator @RepAndyHarrisMD’s attempt to block DC bill decriminalizing prostitution that hasn’t even had a hearing. W/ Ds in charge, he gave up on trying to block DC recreational marijuana commercialization, aid in dying and wet wipes labeling
