Today’s American History Lesson: Puerto Rico has been part of the U.S. since 1898, and Puerto Ricans have been U.S. citizens since 1917 🇵🇷 🇺🇸 We’ve cheered many non-Americans at the #SuperBowl. Bad Bunny isn’t one of them. 🏈 🎤

In case you were wondering, a successful strategy for removing a squirrel (your golden brought in) from the Christmas tree in your house is to remove your treasured ornaments, move the tree outside, and wait. Upon success, you get to decorate your tree 2x in one season. 🐿️🎄

This occurred outside my temple yesterday, Nov. 25, 2023 which is also the same place my son went to preschool… overwhelmed with emotions. #stopantisemitism

BREAKING: We’re suing to stop Texas’ drag ban from taking effect September 1. Drag and other forms of artistic expression are protected under the First Amendment — and we won’t let politicians get away with this cruel attempt to push LGBTQIA Texans out of public life.

It’s a sad day, but we need to continue to fight for our rights and make sure everyone votes. Voting is the only way we can make change happen.

Discrimination is wrong. Using religion as an excuse to discriminate is wrong - and unconstitutional. The Court’s minority is right: the Constitution is no license for a business to discriminate. Today’s ruling will move America backward.

Replacing well-educated, licensed professionals with uncertified chaplains threatens the safety and education of all Texas students. Families and faith communities have the right to instill religious beliefs in their children — not the government. texastribune.org/2023/05/24/…

Now the poem that Amanda Gorman read at President Biden’s inauguration, entitled “The Hill We Climb,” has been banned from curriculum through 5th grade in Miami-Dade County, for not being suitable for elementary students. For those who listened to the poem, you would know the the poem was a lecture on peace, love, unity, and freedom. This is why laws banning critical race theory from schools are a problem. People begin categorizing anything that talks about race as falling into the realm of CRT. Or they use the law to justify removing books and curriculum that can teach real history. This isn’t free speech. This is using the law to chill the free speech of others, in my opinion.

BREAKING: We’ll take Gov. Abbott to court if he signs #SB14 into law, banning health care for trans youth. Similar unconstitutional bills have been challenged and stopped in other states. We, @ACLU, @LambdaLegal & @TransLawCenter are ready to protect trans kids in Texas, too.

NEW: @Twitter has quietly removed a section of its hateful conduct policy that aimed to protect transgender people from targeted misgendering and deadnaming. glaad.org/releases/glaad-res…
