Today marks one year since we introduced #HR8, my bipartisan legislation to expand background checks and help keep our communities safe from gun violence. Leader McConnell continues to block a vote on this vital legislation. RT to tell him it’s time to hold a vote.
“I'm saying we love Americans, but we hate your president” 😭
Are these the "terrorist" we are fighting in the middle east?
Does this man look or even sound a terrorist to you?
My heart breaks for my people.💔
"Are we human or not?"
Fred Hampton was only 21 when he was murdered by Chicago Police 50 years ago today.
He fought for better education and housing, to end hunger and police violence.
He taught that where there's people, there's power. We can live that lesson today.

Here’s exactly what’s happening today:
The Supreme Court is being asked to make it legal to fire someone because we’re LGBTQ.
We're representing Aimee Stephens, Don Zarda — and anyone who's ever been told you're not the right "kind" of man or woman.
One out of every three Black boys born today can expect to go to prison in his lifetime.
