The @exeternhdems.bsky.social held a “No Kings in America” rally along with @gsnhindivisible.bsky.social today outside of Exeter town hall.

We had great speakers and attendance! Weather was partly sunny and the mid 70s, a huge change from the snow that canceled our event last Saturday!

Siobhan and I had the honor of visiting the White House earlier today for one of their Holiday Open Houses!

We loved seeing the decorations and it was amazing to be in some of the rooms we had only read about.

Thank you to President Biden and Dr. Jill Biden for the invitation!

The sample NH Democratic Primary Ballots are out. No, these names were not AI generated.

After the Exeter Democrats park cleanup event this morning, I drove to Manchester, NH to knock doors for Kevin Cavanaugh and local candidates in Ward 9 ahead of Tuesday's municipal elections! There was some rain and it's chillier than Florida, but the good conversations at the doors made up for it!

I’m attending the New Hampshire Democratic Party state convention today!

Looking forward to hearing from some of the amazing Dems who represent our state. Unfortunately, the federal delegation is all in DC working to prevent a shutdown but we will be hearing from Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro!

What do you do when the special election for Hal Rafter is on Tuesday but there's a Tropical Storm outside?

You knock doors! Glad to do my part to help GOTV and get another Democrat elected to the NH House of Representatives!

Volunteering at the Independence festival in Exeter with the local Dems and got stuck debating whether or not RFK Jr. has made anti-trans comments.

When his supporters conceded that he had, they said it was taken out of context by “the media”.

He has made claims drinking water turns kids trans. 🙄

These are the final proposed "informed consent" forms that trans adults must sign to receive gender affirming care in the state of Florida.

No definitions are provided for "capacity to consent", "psychiatric comorbidity", or "psychological + social support".

The board of medicine vote this Friday.

Had a great time tonight with the Exeter Dems at their "Libations with Liberals" event!

Very glad that I've connected with this group, being with Democrats and talking politics is my comfort zone. Great to see NH House Deputy Minority Leader Alexis Simpson as well!

Had a great time today at Portsmouth Pride!

Finally got to meet some friends in person that I've only chatted with online like Cherie Belanger and also connected with Linds Jakows from 603Equality and NH State Representative Gerri Cannon!

I hadn't realized this is NH's largest annual Pride event.

Checked the weather for Portsmouth, NH Pride tomorrow. It was so close to being a nice day.

The proposed "informed consent" forms that trans people in Florida will have to agree to in order to receive gender affirming care after SB 254 was signed into law have been released ahead of tomorrow's board of medicine meeting.

The board's requirements are alarming, to say the least.

Just wrapped up a panel hosted by the National Democratic Training Committee and LGBTQ+ Victory Fund on working on campaigns and in government while trans.

Thank you to Representative Brianna Titone and my friend Alia Kapasi for your continued advocacy for the trans community!
