🚨 Behind-the-scenes: my day at the 40th Printers Row Lit Fest! The highlight was having the opportunity to join thoughtful authors & advocates to discuss the fight against book bans in America, but this incredible event is so much more. #DayInTheLife

Today I joined authors and advocates at the 40th Printers Row Lit Fest in Chicago for a discussion on The Fight Against Book Bans. Defending our fundamental Right to Read is crucial as the concept of banning books is antithetical to the very essence of what our country stands for.

Enabled by our first-in-the-nation legislation banning the use of automatic license plate readers by out-of-state law enforcement for abortion or immigration purposes, we’re cracking down on this data-sharing surveillance technology. Now this revelation is sparking changes.

The downtown holiday market was definitely worth the trip. With a good mix of traditional and new vendors - it was well worth a night out!
If I’m picking one #dc holiday market to go to this weekend, any recommendations between downtown and DuPont? @popville.bsky.social @barredindc.bsky.social

Climate Change:
It's real.
It's us.
It's serious - and already dangerous.
But there are solutions.
The science is clear: the faster we cut emissions, the less suffering we will cause, and the better off we'll all be.
