Today is Constitution Day.
Our democracy’s foundation is under attack—through voter suppression, silencing truth in classrooms, and weakening the very rights the Constitution promises.

Honoring this day means more than remembering history. It means defending democracy, every day.

Anti-intellectualism is eroding the fabric of our democracy. When we devalue expertise, dismiss science, & mock critical thinking, we pave the way for ignorance to become policy. A society that fears knowledge cannot progress. We must do better. #EducationMatters

The Senate’s decision to cut foreign aid & public broadcasting funding is reckless. It undermines U.S. leadership abroad & silences trusted info at home. We must stand for global responsibility & truth. #PublicBroadcasting #ForeignAid #Leadership

There’s a difference between celebrating the 4th and celebrating ON the 4th. I’ll be doing the latter while I hope we remember who we’re supposed to be.

The “big, beautiful bill” is a dangerous deception. It hurts immigrants, slashes healthcare, and rewards the rich at our expense. It’s not bold—it’s broken. We need policy that lifts people, not leaves them behind.

This is not just violence.
This is domestic terrorism.
This is what happens when we normalize hate, when we stay silent about extremism.

We must call it what it is.
We must demand better.
We must protect those who serve our communities with truth and courage.

🖤 Rest in power, Rep. Hortman.

On this #NoKingsDay, let’s not forget the reason for America. America was founded for religious freedom, self-governance, and economic opportunity, as colonists sought independence from British rule and the right to shape their own destiny. Doesn’t quite feel like that in 2025.

I guess we’re still not paying attention. We had better recognize that all of us are going to be impacted and, if we continue to think this is about someone “other” than us, we will soon find there is no movement there to defend us.

True humanity is not measured by success or power, but by our willingness to see, hear, and uplift those who suffer. To ignore the pain of others is to deny our shared existence. Compassion is not charity—it is the responsibility of every heart that beats. #valuehumanity
