Folks, I might not walk as easily or talk as smoothly as I used to.
I might not debate as well as I used to.
But what I do know is how to tell the truth.
I’ve never endorsed a presidential candidate before. But this year’s election stands to be so enormously consequential for women and families that, this time, I can’t stay quiet.
Women deserve a leader who cares about the issues they face and is committed to protecting their safety, their health, their economic power, their reproductive rights, and their ability to freely and fully participate in a functioning democracy. In this election, the contrast couldn’t be greater, and the stakes couldn’t be higher.
I will be voting for President Biden.

BREAKING: The #NCGA voted to override @NC_Governor's veto of the monster abortion ban, Senate Bill 20. The ban will become law and go into effect on July 1, decimating abortion access in our region. @PPSouthAtlantic's doors remain open. We aren't going anywhere. #BansOffOurBodies
BREAKING: The NC Senate has voted to override @NC_Governor's veto of Senate Bill 20, the monster abortion ban. The bill now moves to the House, where lawmakers are expected to vote this evening.
If the House overrides the veto, it will become law. #BansOffOurBodies#NCGA
"It's even worse that you try to gaslight us into thinking that SB 20 is for our own protection or our morality. This is not how modern societies treat women. It's not what North Carolina women want or deserve."
Powerful words from @NatashaMarcusNC 👏👏 #BansOffOurBodies#NCGA

It is no longer my place to comment on the @NCDemParty elections and I have no position on the officer elections. It is worth noting, however, that staff of party organizations should refrain from taking a position on board elections.
BREAKING - After threats that 10,000 NYPD officers could quit the force over the NYC vaccine mandate, the actual number going on unpaid leave today was 34.
BREAKING: President-elect Joe Biden: "At this hour, our democracy is under unprecedented assault."
"I call on this mob to pull back and allow the work of democracy to go forward." https://t.co/EzJJ0Rqggf
All of this was predictable. It was predicted. And the lasting shame of history will be on all those who refused to act out of cowardice, ambition, or their own allegiance to an authoritarian movement.
