Survivors of sexual violence deserve healing & justice — not shame & blame.
This #DenimDay, I want my survivor tribe to know that you are seen, you are not alone, and I am proud to stand in solidarity with you.
Black families have been systematically denied the opportunity to build wealth.
That’s why intentional investments can help close the racial wealth gap.
Proud to have secured $1M with @SenWarren for @BECMAinc to support Black-owned businesses & entrepreneurs in the #MA7.
Our books tell our stories, reflect our lived experiences, highlight our brilliance, & illuminate our traumas.
TY @EdTrust for inviting me to speak on my #BooksSaveLives Act and the need to fight book bans nationwide and protect intellectual freedom.
The US should not be sending more offensive weapons to an Israeli government that has operated with callous disregard for human life.
We need to save lives, promote de-escalation & advance peace across the globe.
My full statement on the Israel & Ukraine military aid bills👆
Cannabis justice is racial justice, economic justice, & restorative justice – and the time to act is NOW.
On this 4/20, we need to legalize marijuana, expunge records, & end the War on Drugs that has ravaged Black & brown communities.
When it comes to cannabis justice and the War on Drugs, clemency must be part of the solution.
@POTUS must use his clemency authority to end mass incarceration and set our communities on a pathway to healing.
I filed amendments to de-escalate & save lives by:
—Surging global humanitarian aid (including to Gaza, Ukraine, & Haiti)
—Stopping the U.S. from sending offensive weapons to the Israeli military for one year.
Every action we take must be in pursuit of peace.
Our approach to public safety must center care & healing, NOT criminalization & incarceration.
Proud to join @RepCori, @RepKatiePorter & the Community Safety Agenda to advocate for life-saving policies like our Counseling Not Criminalization in Schools Act & People’s Response Act.
We must de-escalate the Middle East & facilitate a lasting ceasefire in Gaza to save lives.
Nearly 34,000 Palestinians have been killed, over 100 hostages remain captive, & millions are facing starvation.
A regional war would be disastrous and we need a #CeasefireNOW.
