#MichaelBohacek is right

If #trump wants a majority in #Congress, he has to convince voters that his policies are best for them

Not use gerrymandering to cheat his way to a majority in #Congress

The #House map is already so rigged on both sides it's beyond ridiculous

I have a sister w/IDD & thank #MichaelBohacek for speaking out against tump. I've advocated for ppl w/IDD all of my life & to eliminate that derogatory word from our lexicon. Once again it highlights #trump's ignorance & bigoted view of others. Where are the other voices!

Senate Republican #MichaelBohacek, whose daughter has #DownSyndrome, says he will vote to block Trump's redistricting effort in #Indiana, citing Trump's use of the word "#retarted”.

Words do matter and it’s time people start calling out Trump for his insults to people who don't agree with him.

#MichaelBohacek I agree!

While I appreciate Indiana State Senator #MichaelBohacek for his comments about Trump’s continuing denigration of individuals with disabilities, I would find him more believable if he switched political parties!
