Good morning! I’m currently at Beaverton High School in OR where a mass student walk out has just started to demand a proactive ICE protocol for their school and district.
Students say that similar walkouts were planned at multiple other high schools, including Aloha, Sunset, Southridge & more.

📣 UPDATED: Since I've been shouting from the rooftops about the importance of #ACA enrollees NOT letting themselves be passively re-enrolled, here's an update to my own family's situation (we went ahead & pulled the trigger this morning):

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the bright and courageous trans people whose lives were stolen by hatred. Their absence is felt across our city.
We will honor them by building a New York where every trans person can live safely, fully and freely.

Evergreeners in SW WA...light Gluesenkamp Perez's phone lines up!
From 50501 folks. These are the House Dems who have a tendency to DINO. Call them now and if any of them are YOUR rep and they vote with the GOP, what's your strategy to work to get representation in Congress? Bc these guys ain't it.

I'm loving Tim Walz for this almost as much as I'm loving what I'm imagining SNL's wig department is going to do with this week's sketches.

When we elect a Representative, we are handing our collective voice to one we believe will lead us forward. While #MGPisGOP neglects speaking out against fascism taking over our democracy to dismantle our Gov, constituents in #WA03 are being hurt. We must replace @gluesenkampperez.house.gov in '26.

It is.
They have permanently shut down the government. And nobody is doing anything about it bc they think, “Maybe next week they’ll convene.”
This is the plan.
I say the Dems need to take over Congress. Start having live streamed hearings with the victims, with Jack Smith—EXPOSE THE TRUTHS!

There’s no reason ever again for any Democrat to suggest moderating on trans rights. There was never a moral reason but now there’s no political reason either.
Somebody tell Gavin Newsom and Pete Buttigieg. it’s joe-ver.
