Retired from long drives and long marches, not from the cause. I’ve been organizing since ’74, and country miles won’t stop me now. If you need a friend in the fight for decency, kindness, and the common good — I’m right here.

Is there an efficient way to follow everyone back?

It seems I went over the limit of 150. I will begin another one soon. If you are new, as I am this may give you a start on connecting with people.

The Epstein Files Transparency Act, which explicitly requires federal agencies to release Epstein-related material unless it’s classified or would directly endanger victims. The law now overrides the usual secrecy protections, and the Epstein case doesn’t get a special carve-out anymore.

🚨 BREAKING: Oversight Dems received 95,000 new photos from Jeffrey Epstein's estate. These disturbing images raise even more questions about Epstein and his relationships with some of the most powerful men in the world.

Time to end this White House cover-up. Release the files!

There’s talk of tighter immigration policies and travelers facing changes at borders. I pray that kindness does not get lost in rules, and that every family torn apart finds a door open wide enough for all.

I do plan to do more of these regularly!

I’ve heard about the general strike in Portugal — people uniting over conditions that affect their work and their future. There’s something very old in such gatherings, and something very right. Standing together matters. #Portugal

Seeing the severe flooding in parts of the Pacific Northwest makes me think of neighbours far from here whose roofs and fields are struggling with water many of us only see in pictures. I hope hands reach out and stay a while.

Get ready for yet another legal battle over Missouri's new congressional map...

AG Hanaway tweeted this out a few minutes ago. This flies in the face of recent precedent (the 2017 RTW referendum) and the Missouri Constitution.

Republicans have NO PLAN to fix skyrocketing premiums. Instead, they want to bring back high-risk pools when pre-existing conditions weren't protected, create more junk health plans that bury patients in debt, and find new ways to attack access to abortion.

Good morning. Today, Senate Republicans have one last opportunity to vote to save the ACA tax credits.

If they refuse, they are CHOOSING to let premiums more than double, and they would force millions of Americans to go uninsured.

Today the Senate will vote whether to lower health insurance costs for Americans, or let them double for millions. I urge my Republican colleagues to join us and address this crisis.

The Trump administration keeps threatening to interfere with the full release of the Epstein Files.

To ensure there is no tampering with the files ahead of their legally-required release, we need an independent audit of who at the Justice Department had access. And when.

Requiring foreign visitors to hand over 5 years of social media isn’t “security,” it’s unchecked government control.

All-seeing surveillance systems don’t make us safer. They are in direct opposition to our civil liberties.

Women who uphold the patriarchy and constantly demean feminism should not be online spouting their opinions on their own social media platforms.

You shouldn’t have an opinion or a platform. Let your husband do that for you…
