Justice doesn't waver. In Southern Arizona: no woman, and no provider, will ever spend a night detained. Local elections matter.

Equal protection for the win.
BREAKING: D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals rules that Hegseth policy barring military service by transgender people is fueled by unconstitutional animus. 2-1 decision bars military from removing some currently-serving transgender service members. storage.courtlistener.com/re…

Pope Leo XIV: "Among these ideologies, I consider particularly insidious the one that suggests that every person must earn or justify his or her own worth, to the point of attributing greater value to those who are more efficient or effective. From this perspective, persons end up being reduced to a means of achieving results, a resource to be used and exploited, and are no longer recognized as a proper end in themselves who should never be instrumentalized. The value of persons, however, does not depend on what they achieve or produce. There are rights that apply to everyone simply by virtue of being human, and no human power can legitimately deny or arbitrarily limit them." #MagnificaHumanitas

By now you probably saw my Sunday Night Thoughts or hopefully other posts, but this is going to be a long haul in need of long-term medical oversight with specialists, meds. TY from the bottom of my heart for all who have given so far, or: facebook.com/share/p/1CbZGP2…

I did some volunteering for a Veteran not for profit today and wanted to let all my followers who are Veterans know I don't think you're suckers and losers like Donald Trump does and I don't think your benefits should be cut like Donald Trump does and I appreciate your sacrifice and admire your service for our country.

Been in Montgomery, AL this week working. Between Gates 4 and 5, this is the airport wall. Think I'll go over and stand up against it, in a supportive posture, while I wait to board. #IYKYK

MESSAGE I wholeheartedly endorse the powerful appeal for peace made by the Holy Father, Pope Leo, during his Palm Sunday Mass. His call for the laying down of arms and the renunciation of violence resonated profoundly with me, as it speaks to the very essence of what all major religions teach. Indeed, whether we look to Christianity, Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism, Judaism or any of the world's great spiritual traditions, the message is fundamentally the same: love, compassion, tolerance, and self-discipline. Violence finds no true home in any of these teachings. History has shown us time and again that violence only begets more violence and is never a lasting foundation for peace. An enduring resolution to conflict, including the ones we see in the Middle East or between Russia and Ukraine, must be rooted in dialogue, diplomacy and mutual respect — approached with the understanding that, at the deepest level, we are all brothers and sisters. I urge for and pray that the violence and conflicts may soon come to an end. DALAI LAMA 31 March 2026

There are so many ways we should lift up his legacy. But I am so grateful to be reminded of him lifting up and empowering the Little Ones.
I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is

Icy storm in D.C., but it's the ice cold heart of the administration that has the Nation's capitol discouraged. We came with love, fearless. We are the Fight Against Federal Overreach. @LarryKrasnerDA @SteveDescano @MaryMoriarty

Making sure that children motivate our every step. Thank you @chefjoseandres and @CoryBooker
Yesterday, the White House and Congress let SNAP run out…which will leave 40 million Americans hungry. Our leaders need to put people over politics, and invest in the health and well being of Americans everywhere…from children and families to farmers and small businesses.

This and this and this. We need more of this. Protecting democracy and the rule of law.
The Trump administration’s lawlessness cannot be ignored. Period.

Federal workers getting fired in the shutdown. Federal District Judge response: no. 'This seems hasty, and also, illegal.' That sounds like a fun hashtag. #hastyandillegal

Our new Trump-appointed prosecutor tried to block us from prosecuting a violent crime. We sued. Grateful that federal court returned us to business as usual.

Pulling towards justice often leaves me exhausted, and sometimes frankly beat down, but there's no alternative. And I am so deeply grateful to every one of you in the fight, with me.
The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. Except it doesn’t bend on its own—it bends because we pull it in the direction of justice. What keeps me hopeful during times like these is being surrounded by people who are doing just that.

I am deeply grateful for the work of several prosecutors on this case, trying to hold the line against domestic violence. But it takes all of us to protect each other. If you see something, please reach out: emergecenter.org/?fbclid=Iwd…
Pima County Attorney ⁦@Conover17L⁩ says domestic violence cases are spiking. Just yesterday in Tucson, a couple was found dead inside their home. Conover urges family, friends and neighbors if you see something, say something. ⁦@KVOA
