Love this local story on the power of TikTok.
An elementary teacher has connected with millions on TikTok with science experiments: "I still don't think I'm TikTok famous. I just still tell people, I'm just a teacher, I just have a lot of students."

As I’ve said before, no one should be in jail just for using or possessing marijuana.
Today, I’m taking steps to end our failed approach. Allow me to lay them out.

The reason we didn't know or call it an abortion is because doctors don't use that language. is not alone in this. Abortion bans impact us all and we need to be fighting like hell to stop them. Thank you, Chrissy.

Thank you, for sharing your story. I also had a medically necessary abortion that I called a miscarriage for many years. Your story is so powerful for helping others to understand the broad impact of abortion bans. 1/2

This Pride Month can’t just be a celebration.
It must also be a reminder and a refocus on the fight for full equality in the face of continued bigoted legislation at home and abroad.
The fight for equality can never be over. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️

As we grieve the children of Uvalde today, we should take time to recognize that two years have passed since the murder of George Floyd under the knee of a police officer. His killing stays with us all to this day, especially those who loved him.

My closing message is simple. I’ll be the passionate fighter for working families that we need to change a US Senate that’s not delivering for working people.
With your vote we’ll send a message to the cynics and pundits that PA is ready for a New Day.

As of today, abortion is still legal in the U.S.
Please share.

As of today, abortion is still a constitutional right. Generations before us have fought to gain & protect the rights we have today. And we aren’t backing down.
Thank you for being in this fight to make sure everyone has the power to control their own bodies, lives & futures.

The pundits think this race is about the color of my skin or who I love. But this race is about who I’ll fight for — and in me, working families like mine across PA will have a champion in the US Senate. Too much is on the line.

We are engaged anew in a great battle for freedom.
A battle between democracy and autocracy. Between liberty and repression.
This battle will not be won in days or months either. We need to steel ourselves for the long fight ahead.

Biden was on the campaign trail 2.5 years ago calling for VAWA's reauthorization and now as president he's getting to sign it into law.
Quote Tweet
Ahead of the 25th anniversary of the signing of VAWA, Biden takes about 15 mins in Laconia, New Hampshire, to talk about the bill, which he says "must be reauthorized" but Republicans are "holding it up."

Glad ’s taken a stand.
Come #PrideMonth, many corporations that stayed silent though they make major political donations, will publish pro-LGBTQ posts.
Hold them accountable. Ask the question: “Have business “allies” w/operations in FL actively opposed this bill?”🌈🌈🌈
