The Utah Black Roundtable called on @GovCox to veto #HB427. Aside from being dangerous for our kids, the bill is too vague and too broad to be implemented. Please consider doing the same. Ask the Governor to #VetoHB427 #utpol #utleg @myuea

With abortion no longer federally protected, Justice Thomas suggests removal of right to privacy for contraception and same-sex couples/marriages could be next. He left Loving v Virginia, which legalized his marriage, off the list. He’s okay going after your marriage, though.

Our hearts break at the thought of the lifelong emotional trauma this young girl must now endure. May she always be surrounded by people who love her and will ensure she gets the mental care she will need.
A fourth grader who said she played dead during the mass shooting at a Texas elementary school and the parents of one of the children killed in the massacre will testify before Congress next week on gun violence. abcn.ws/3GV9YwQ
