My husband @robertcooper-us.bsky.social and I were the FIRST gay couple to adopt children in the US, way back in 1985. We went on to adopt five wonderful kids — all adopted at birth.
They’ve grown so much! Here’s a pic from our wedding in 2000, and a recent one including their significant others. ❤️

Forty percent of children on Southwest Virginia are on Medicaid. Let that one sink in.
It’s hard to fathom how devastating this will be…
At 6:00 pm, the House votes on a budget that guts Medicaid —ripping healthcare from low-income families, sick kids & seniors—all to fund tax cuts for the rich. Children will lose life-saving care so billionaires can hoard more.

This hits hard…
“Then she was fired by a Fox News weekend host.”
You know what else hits hard? The fact that voters thought it was a good idea to hire a reality show host/bankrupt businessman as President of the United States.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out.
They gut the FAA.
Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted.
Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

OSHA immediately found gross negligence and was by my side for two years. 🙏🏽

Talking with my daughter’s boyfriend about his current reading: Steinbeck’s “Grapes of Wrath” and how it relates to what is happening today gives me hope for the future. Some of these Millennials have got it right.
