July examinees, I ride at dawn for you #diplomaprivilegenow
Just to repeat: as much as today sucked, advocating for legislative change for almost a full year now has been a million times harder & more indicative of our competence than the bar exam. We have already proven ourselves. Will die on this hill #diplomaprivilegenow
My #diplomaprivilegenow family has COME THROUGH for me. Thanks, friends. I just sent this to John McAlary personally, and hope that this will clear things up.
Bar takers, I am so so sorry this is happening to you. I am going to fight my ass off to help get retroactive relief for all. #diplomaprivilegenow
I hope people are keeping a list of every single legislator who hung us out to dry in our fight for #diplomaprivilegenow. I know I am.
See you at the polls.
Thank you AM @Charlesdfall for supporting #diplomaprivilegenow!! Just 14 more AMs & a special session to go!
Friends, PLEASE keep contacting Speaker @CarlHeastie (518-455-3791) & asking him to call a session. You don't have to live in his district! ☎️
A member of our team has been advocating with @Gaughran4Senate tirelessly and it’s paid off!! He is now a cosponsor!! #diplomaprivilegenow
We need you to act NOW, @NYGovCuomo @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie. These are only some of the issues that NY-bound law grads are facing. Please bring S8827A/A10846 to a vote, now. We can't keep going like this. #diplomaprivilegenow...
Hope I have enough data to run a hotspot on which all other internet-dependent devices in my three-occupant household can run while I have to kick them all off the wifi for however long it takes to get through this mock exam to protect them from hacks 😅🙃 #DiplomaPrivilegeNow
Update: @AMWilliamColton is a GEM of a human being and supports incoming attorneys wholeheartedly. Thank you, Assemblymember!! #diplomaprivilegenow
I missed Long Island this summer, but right now, I miss the support of its state senators even more. Will you please you'll cosponsor S8827A, @NYSSenatorMRM @toddkaminsky @SenKevinThomas? #diplomaprivilegenow
So many impossible choices, each with a huge risk of serious, damaging outcomes, because of this ridiculous exam. This obtuse approach has created so many more and worse problems than it’s solved, and we bear the costs when we can’t afford to. Just give us #DiplomaPrivilegeNow
I got the email bugging me to download the @ExamSoft demo but I’m putting it off bc I’m so scared for our data security. My mom’s good credit is one of her few remaining assets. If that gets wrecked bc this software gets us hacked idk what we’ll do. We NEED #DiplomaPrivilegeNow
I’m just a girl, loading everything from an old laptop to an external hard drive so I can wipe it, asking it to run the bar exam software so I don’t have to wipe my current laptop that I need for job searching and leave it wiped until the results come back 🙃 #DiplomaPrivilegeNow
Hi can we please just have #DiplomaPrivilegeNow so I can eat and have a place to live
Hey folks! Take a few min and reach out to these assemblymembers today. They haven't received enough messages in support of A10846, and we need their help! #diplomaprivilegenow @dp4ny
Congrats, bar passers!! Gentle reminder that when you woke up today, you were one of us. Now that you’re on the other side, you can keep fighting for #diplomaprivilegenow, to pave a fairer path for folks who come after you. Pay it forward 😊👏🎉
The fact that @resistbot celebrates these milestones along w you just adds to the experience imo 🎉🙏 #diplomaprivilegenow @dp4ny
Shamelessly reposting my own op-ed from @BLaw, in case anyone needs reminding for why we need #diplomaprivilegenow. The reasons have only gotten more urgent since I wrote this.
NYers: PLEASE tell your reps to support/cosponsor...
Fantastic piece by @JohannaWithAnH about the bar exam's racist roots and discriminatory effects #diplomaprivilegenow abovethelaw.com/2020/07/covid-should-pro...
I am so so sorry to everyone who is suffering so much from this completely foreseeable #onlinebarexamfail. You deserve so much better than being strung along like this for the investment and diligence you’ve put in. You deserve your license #DiplomaPrivilegeNow #MIBarExam
Still in shock that @CoSupremeCourt is plowing ahead with mass gathering superspreader #barexam next week. Cases are surging, there WILL BE preventable deaths from this, if not testers, they will infect others. How can you be so reckless? Grant #DiplomaPrivilegeNow #copolitics
It would be great if the people who are openly advocating against diploma privilege would stop expressing their “sympathy” for the class of 2020. Your position demonstrates a clear lack of compassion. That is painful enough without the empty words. #DiplomaPrivilegeNow
Please welcome @NHdiplomapriv to the chat! NH is a small jurisdiction and we urgently need all the support we can get for our 117 applicants! #DiplomaPrivilege #DiplomaPrivilegeNow #barpocalypse
Responding to bar examinees with “everyone is suffering right now” is not helpful. We know that. We never denied that. Having empathy for us won’t prevent you from giving it to others. Stop using a scarcity mindset to discount and invalidate us. #DiplomaPrivilegeNow
Postponing the bar exam is just punting the problem to future you #barpocalypse #DiplomaPrivilegeNow @DiplomaPriv4All
The appeal for diploma privilege is an appeal for disaster relief.
It is not a literal privilege. It’s not some big cushy windfall. It is a necessary measure to protect the public health and basic security for ‘20 grads #diplomaprivilege #DiplomaPrivilegeNow #lawtwitter
Over 600 people have viewed the informal petition for #diplomaprivilege in NH but only 66 have signed. Can we get to 100 signatures today? #NHbarexam #diplomaprivilegenow #lawtwitter @diplomaprivileg @DiplomaPriv4All...
.@NHSenateDems ‘20 law grads urgently need your help advocating to cancel the bar exam and grant licenses! NHBBE intends to hold the bar in person in Sept despite #COVID19 at great risk to public and individual health as well as our careers &security, we need #DiplomaPrivilegeNow
Pls sign petition for diploma privilege in New Hampshire, a lot of people think NH already has it because there was a mistake on Wiki but we do NOT! The exam is on for September #covid19 #superspreader #diplomaprivilegenow #lawstudents #Classof2020 #unhlaw...
