A sitting President of the United States, using a literal NAZI symbol. The Pink Triangle, sewn onto 15,000 gay men's uniforms in concentration camps – to clearly mark them as LGBTQ for shame and extermination. WAKE. THE. HELL. UP. AMERICA.

Thank you @jwaldstreicher for being a gun sense champion and for you effort to get the Family and Law Enforcement Protection Act (SB 943) through the JPR committee to protect victims of domestic violence. #MDpolitics #MDGA25 @MomsDemand

"We should not be giving Black people the same vaccine schedule that's given to Whites, because their immune system is better than ours." ---RFK Jr. So what vaccine schedule should I have received? His answer was dangerous. I will be voting no.

💡#DYK that you can still purchase a military-style firearm in Colorado that accepts high-capacity magazines even with a state ban in place? That's why I'm here with Colorado @StudentsDemand today to demand lawmakers enforce this ban.

Yesterday on Face The Nation, I was asked if I believe I'm being treated with dignity by some of my new colleagues. What matters is how the American people are being treated -- and every bit of time and energy that is being used to focus on manufactured crises and culture wars is time and energy that is not being used to lower costs facing families. That's what I'm focused on. I hope my colleagues who are focused on other things join me in prioritizing the needs of the American people.

Today, I have good news to report from the Middle East. I have spoken to the Prime Ministers of Lebanon and Israel. And I am pleased to announce: They have accepted the United States’ proposal to end the devastating conflict between Israel and Hezbollah.

A5.Firearm injury prevention = suicide prevention. Over 50% of firearm deaths are suicides but this is often overlooked in the gun safety dialogue. Our Center is working to reimage the research, policy and practice of suicide prevention. See bit.ly/4eAko45 #BeInjuryFree

I'm a volunteer with BeSMART in Maryland because firearms are the leading cause of death for children and teens (ages 0 to 19) in the United States. #NotAnAccident #BeSMART #BeInjuryFree besmartforkids.org/

Today is National Injury Prevention Day. Did you know safe storage of firearms is an important suicide prevention strategy? Taking the steps to safely store firearms helps reduce access to lethal means and creates a safe environment for people in crisis. #BeInjuryFree

“Whether you’re a gun owner or not, everyone has a role to play in preventing gun violence. We need to prioritize gun safety and normalize the conversation around access to unsecured, loaded firearms.” -Temple Hiatt, Iowa #BeSMART volunteer dailyiowan.com/2024/07/09/jo…

We may have a mayor & county council that want us to disappear but these pictures from Salisbury Pride last week remind me to keep fighting to move equality forward. #mdpolitics #pflag #LGBTQIA #Equality

VICTORY! After passionate advocacy by our volunteers, Colorado lawmakers enacted six gun safety bills this session, including a critical bill instituting a state dealer permitting system to stem the flow of gun crimes and another that prohibits the carrying of guns in sensitive spaces, like government buildings, polling places, and all schools. Due to the efforts of our volunteers and other gun safety advocates, Colorado continues to make monumental progress on gun safety. We can’t wait to get to work again next session to keep the momentum going! #COLeg
