Our calls and emails are critical but it's also very important that we turn up the pressure on senators in public in their home states before the vote on DHS funding.

We honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. by committing ourselves to the noble struggle for equal rights. Dr. King’s work and words are still as poignant and necessary today as they were during his life.

A very fabulous man told me, "you got some hair, girl." I'm pretty sure it was a compliment, but it might have been an insult. Either way, it was the highlight of the morning.
