"I don't want a Disney vacation of our history! I don't a whitewashed history, I don't want a homogenized history. Tell me the wretched truth about America, because that speaks to our greatness" -- 20 hours into his speech, Cory Booker is spitting absolute 🔥

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.
11,000 people showed up.
Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

@governorwalz.mn.gov How do you feel about coming back to District 1 and Rochester to have a townhall? It seems Rep. Finstad is ignoring any event that isn’t Republican only 😬

Had the honor of attending Rare Disease Week on Capitol Hill this week and got to speak with multiple patients and advocates who were supposed to speak at this event. To say they were disappointed would be an understatement 💔
During Rare Disease Week, patients and advocates were in D.C. for an event with the NIH, FDA, and HHS to highlight work being done on treatments and cures. It was abruptly canceled. Why? The administration fired the people organizing this important event and advancing this work.

We know Black history is American history thanks to generations of Black Americans who worked and persevered to deliver on the promises of justice and equality for all.
MAGA can’t stop the generations of Black Americans who keep leading us to become a more perfect union.
Happy Black History Month.

Federal agencies bar Black History Month and other 'special observances'
A number of federal agencies have banned celebrations related to MLK Jr. Day, Women's History Month and other such observances to comply with Trump's executive orders.

They are expanding their McCarthyite war on diversity to include people with disabilities, and doing it very clearly. Should someone in a wheelchair be able to work for the FAA? I think an overwhelming majority of Americans would say "of course" but that's not what we're hearing from Trump.

Any other Americans struggling to keep up with “normal” life when our country is being put through a paper shredder?

To my DISABILITY COMMUNITY in the FEDERAL workforce:
I know you are scared and frightened of retaliation. The stories of Federal workers being terminated for not having their reasonable accommodations met are DISGUSTING. I PLEAD for you to come forward & share info. Our country needs your voices.🙏💜

To disabled/chronically ill people: activism takes on many forms. Refusing to go around a non-disabled person when they’re in your way/walking towards you is activism. Wearing a mask is activism. Caring for your LGBTQ+ friends is activism. You don’t have to use all your spoons to make a statement 🫶
