I’m Daniela Velázquez — the first Puerto Rican & Latina elected to St. Louis’ city council.

In office, I’ve wondered if the president would try to deport me, a citizen, out of my country.

My people & my city have been abandoned. Impeach Trump.

A coalition of local St. Louis organizations — including 50501 Saint Louis, Voices of Palestine Network, Veterans for Peace, the Missouri Workers Center, and St. Louis Jewish Voice for Peace — held a press conference Friday calling for a May 1 general strike.

St. Louis Alderwoman Daniela Velazquez called on her fellow colleagues to strike as well.

Thank you @VDanielaV for passing this resolution @STLCityBOA today calling on Congress to abolish the fiscal control board it imposed on Puerto Rico. #FueraLaJunta

A fantastic boricua meetup last night at @RaicesBrewing in Denver!

So great to meet fellow Puerto Ricans who want a free, just, and prosperous future for our homeland.

Thanks to leaders like @VDanielaV, @LigaCiudadesPR, and more for joining us!

[Daniela Velázquez @VDanielaV]

Excited to talk civics with @ChrisAmyKMOX this morning!

(Did you know that St. Louis is one of 41 independent cities in the nation — and 38 of those are in Virginia?)

@JacobLongDC Some of us are. 🙂

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

These guys are grossly incompetent. Criminally incompetent. They are going to get Americans killed because of their uniquely toxic combination of carelessness and narcissism.

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

They are getting ready to destroy Social Security. Because the billionaires don’t need it.

Prepping the ground here by shaming people who dare complain if their Social Security check disappears.

[Candidly Tiff @tify330]

Defunding and Dismantling the Department of Education was in Project 2025, Agenda 47 and the Republican platform no one should be surprised.

Trump lied and said he will eliminate but his cult won’t care. Legally he knows he can’t do it.

[SLU/YouGov Poll @SLUPoll]

@MarkMaxwellTV Results by region. St. Louis, in this graph, is St. Louis City and County

[Daniela Velázquez @VDanielaV]

@bowencreek @MarkMaxwellTV …..aaand, that’s not in St. Louis. That’s the point.

[Mark Maxwell @MarkMaxwellTV]

A new SLU/YouGov statewide poll found only 39% of likely Missouri voters prefer state control over the St. Louis police department.

47% oppose and 14% said they weren’t sure.

Makes you wonder just how much more unpopular the idea is inside city limits.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

It’s only “free speech” if you agree with them.

Everyone else gets stripped from their community’s town hall.

The fact is, we work for everybody. If Republican politicians can’t get that we work for the public, then the public should give them the boot. 🥾🗳️

[Chris Murphy 🟧 @ChrisMurphyCT]

The FTC’s purpose is to be a check on billionaires and corporations who make money off screwing YOU.

Instead, Trump wants to personally wield the FTC’s power to protect his billionaire friends and punish dissent.

[Rep. Emanuel Cleaver @repcleaver]

While President Trump and congressional Republicans focus on another massive tax cut for their billionaire donors, paid for by cuts to programs like Medicaid and SNAP, the president is slashing pay for American workers.

Reverse Robin Hood.

“It’s really everyone — not just noncitizens or undocumented people — who are in danger of having their liberty violated in this kind of mass deportation machinery,” said Cody Wofsy, the deputy director of the ACLU’s Immigrants’ Rights Project.
