law student homies, if you are still using @LexisNexis I beg y’all to stop. The violence it inflicts on our communities is not worth it. Check out @casetext for an ethical alternative and plug in with @ConMijente for more.

🚨 NEWS 🚨

ICE has been using a data broker, @LexisNexis, to skirt sanctuary laws.

We're publishing documents showing ICE *explicitly* saying they need this contract to skirt sanctuary laws, for the first time, & detailing how it works. 👇👇👇

[Housing 4 All is Hot @ahouse4all]

"According to the latest federal data, Los Angeles had roughly 9,000 Section 8 vouchers that went unused last year."

We need to invest in social housing instead of continuing to fail at privatizing our public housing system.

i feel tears coming every time i have a normal convo w a client. just about something sweet that happened in their life; a cute thing their child said, a good sandwich they ate, a sunny day. i just wish so deeply that they had the tools to thrive bc that’s what everyone deserves

[pey @peyjay_]

something so sad to me about eviction defense work is how many clients have no one that they can call & stay with for a few weeks while they figure out next steps, everything about our society is so isolating & we’ve done so much to destroy community that folks are left w nothing

FUCK U JENNIFER BRACKEEN!!!!!!!!

[Rebecca Nagle @rebeccanagle]

In #Brackeen the plaintiffs tried to argue that #ICWA was unconstitutional for 3 big reasons. First, that it was racial discrimination against the non-Native foster parents who wanted to adopt #Native kids.

On this ground #SCOTUS ruled they don’t have standing.
