A state senate district in Texas swung almost +30 points and flipped blue last week.
We only need to do HALF of that to elect Lemario Brown to the Georgia Senate.
If you live in Senate District 18 early voting starts tomorrow 2/9 and runs through Friday 2/13.
✨Election Day is 2/17!

There is so much we can do in this moment which is why I cosponsored HB470 that bans ICE from schools, hospitals, and houses of worship.
Now we need you.
Reach out to the chair of Public Safety and Homeland Security Committee and ask for this bill get a hearing.

Raiding an election office to feed the delusions of an old man is unacceptable. As we wait for more details about the FBI raid, please follow trusted sources for updates and do not spread misinformation.

You've heard a lot about the income tax. Let's break it down: what it is, how it works, and why it affects your paycheck and cost of living.

We filled the steps today in solidarity with Minnesota, in opposition to ICE terrorizing our communities, and to call on Governors, members of Congress, and legislators all around the country to use every power they have to protect our constituents!

Trump’s FBI is raiding an election office in Georgia. This egregious misuse of government resources is nothing more than carrying out the obsession of a delusional old man who can’t believe he lost in 2020. We need new leadership that will stand up to this rogue administration and protect us

Governor is bragging about our rainy day fund because he’s underfunding everything else. That’s like bragging about your savings account with all your bills still unpaid. #GAPol

seeing the Department of Education being dismantled brings so much uncertainty and worry in our lives and the future of education in this country. my values tell me that education is a fundamental right and a very important duty that all people should have. we cannot allow this to happen.

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote.
There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP
Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

cutting off nearly all federal assistance programs will put vulnerable communities at risk. public school children and low-income families will go hungry, millions of people will lose healthcare, and so much more damage will occur. this cannot stand. #healthcare #school #leftist #progressive

This isn’t the first time this racist and genocidal idea gets thrown around. Doesn’t matter if it’s Trump or a pro Israel Democrat saying it. It’s racist and genocidal. And for those still not getting it, Palestinians are our own people. Nothing will ever change that.
On Air Force One from Las Vegas to Miami, President Trump says Palestinians in Gaza should be relocated.
“I’d like Egypt to take people. I’d like Jordan to take people,” he tells reporters.”We just clean out that whole thing.”
