It’s time for legally protected, funded, equitable, supported, and destigmatized access to abortion as soon as someone makes their decision. #LiberateAbortion everywhere, for everyone.

I’ve seen enough. This is not an election call, I’ve just seen enough news for the day.

“We must acknowledge the failure of a society in which a woman’s safety is conditional on how nicely they can tell a man no.” #MustRead
ALT “And the belief held by many is that that onus falls on women and girls to prevent their death by being nicer to their assailant. Because the responsibility of staying alive; or not being sexually assaulted always falls on women. So the patriarchal society would have women believe that it’s their job to protect themselves from their predators and not the man’s job to not prey upon women.”
I wrote about the death of Jamea Jonae Harris and how patriarchy kills women and girls: huffpost.com/entry/jamea-jon…

We can't talk about #MontereyPark without talking about Domestic Violence in the AAPI community. The subject is still taboo but we must uplift AAPI survivors. According to @apigbv 55% Asian women in the U.S. report intimate and/or sexual violence in their lifetime. 🧵🪡

Monterey Park is a city made up of 65% Asian Americans. We are heartbroken for the victims, we mourn with their families, and we are angry. Violence against the AAPI community has not gone away. (2/4)

On a day when the AAPI community should be gathering to celebrate Lunar New Year, we once again find ourselves grieving. On Saturday night in Monterey Park, California, a gunman opened fire at a dance studio following a Lunar New Year celebration. (1/4)

The political soap opera (or hostage crisis?) over the Speaker of the House is having a real impact in D.C.: Dozens of bills passed by the D.C. Council are in limbo since they can't be sent to the House for the required congressional review period. dcist.com/story/23/01/05/dc-…

Her sister was a witch right? And what was her sister? A princess, the wicked witch of the east bro. You're gonna look at me and you're gonna tell me that I'm wrong? Am I wrong? She wore a crown and she came down in a bubble, Matt. Grow up bro, grow up.

Teamwork makes the dream work. No one knows that better than the @AyalaFootball team! Thanks to the boosters, players, and the school for their generous donations. The Bulldogs have supported CLC's holiday gift program for the last 7 years!

Three cheers for High Point Academy!

It’s nonprofit developers like @ClinchPowell - that are prepared to deploy their expertise to support TN’s affordable housing goals- that make this proposal possible. As a TN resident & fan of housing working families can afford- I’m hopeful we can get this done.
In early 2022, we began working closely with the @Faheonline Advocacy Team in a strategic approach to request some of the ARPA funding to address the shortage of affordable housing here in TN. We are hopeful for a positive outcome! #Housing #AffordableHousing #HousingSolutions
