The FBI has concluded its investigation into the Las Vegas massacre without finding a clear motive for the gunman's actions. The findings match those of a report by the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, which also could not determine a motive. cnn.it/2GbuNqy

As a QPOC seeing what happened to @JussieSmollett, it's a reminder that I don't speak up, speak out, and march in rallies and protests because of fearlessness. It's because that fear exists in myself and others that the work has to be done and our voices must be heard. 🏳️🌈✊🏾

Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t. That it’s not for you. That you have limitations. That it’s not the right way. Just believe. (📷 by @_JalenJR)

"Folks who are LGBTQ and black already know and experience hate violence on a daily basis. It is no news to us that this is happening. It might be more of a message to the rest of society to pay attention." -- Our ED @BeverlyTillery on @etnow #ETLive

Every year, transgender people gather for #TDoR to mourn those lost to violence. Hate crimes committed against transgender people have risen each year for the past three years, and at least 26 transgender and gender non-conforming people have been murdered this year.

This Thanksgiving, many New Jerseyans earning at or near the minimum wage will struggle to provide meals for their families. This is unacceptable.
We will keep fighting until the minimum wage is $15/hour for all. #Fightfor15
Today is #Hungerthon on WCBS and @GovMurphy tells our @WayneCabot the most important way to fight hunger is to raise the minimum wage… quickly.
He joined us for a conversation this morning about fighting hunger + poverty. LISTEN: bit.ly/2DMok4X @whyhunger
