speaking truth to power in that some of the first steps in granting more access to capital is also recognizing and acknowledging how it has been intentionally restricted in the past particularly for Black Americans!

Huge. Kamala Harris becomes the first ever VP (or President) to visit an abortion clinic—as Republicans continue to criminalize reproductive rights.

Black women are 3x more likely to die from pregnancy-related complications in the United States.
During Black Maternal Health Week, we must speak truth about this crisis as we continue the fight to protect our nation's mothers and children.
“To achieve true equality, we also have to have an economic agenda and that must include speaking to people’s ambitions.”

on why she’s starting her economic opportunity tour in Atlanta, cradle of the civil rights movement.
The level of domestic terrorism we are witnessing is appalling and frightening; lest we forget if these rioters were black and brown they would be met with the vitriol of Bloody Sunday on the Capitol steps... this is what 45 has inspired this is how our Democracy evaporates!
Working class people combined with authenticity should be the standard for what we look for in our candidates and we should be prepared to support them because they are truly us!
Working-class people shouldn’t be dissuaded from running for office just because they don’t have a Rolodex full of people with unlimited means in a state that allows unlimited corporate & individual contributions.
Vice President Harris: President Biden has been in front of it all. Leading. Directing. The way that his demeanor in that report was characterized could not be more wrong on the facts. It was clearly politically motivated, gratuitous. We should expect a higher level of integrity
This one!!! One of my favorite candidates for the 2022 cycle. I am so proud to welcome

In Detroit today, I announced more than $100M to help small and medium auto supply companies make critical upgrades to produce EV parts.
We also launched a program to match government-backed loans with private equity capital to make sure auto suppliers stay in America.

@JevinHodge
is the best candidate to take on David Schweikert, a homophobic, corrupt Trump crony who is out of step with Arizona voters. Democrats won’t hold the House by playing it safe; we have to go on the offense by running unapologetically progressive campaigns as Jevin did.
The Republican Party has spent the last few decades corrupting the judiciary, weaponizing the presidency, and neutering congress.
A Democratic Party that doesn’t use their authority to hold them accountable is useless.
“As political director for
@CollectivePAC
, which aims to elect more Black people to public office, Chris Scott thinks the nation has hit a "perfect storm" for voters to be inspired to get involved in local elections.”
Democratic leaders are hopeful that a renewed focus on local elections could mean flipping some statehouse and county-level seats from Republican red to Democrat blue.
Your laugh, humility, and wisdom will be missed but not forgotten... it was honor & blessing to have served, learned, and have had moments through time to know you; your inspiration lives on; not saying goodbye but see you later!✊🏽🙏🏽

The progressive movement is just that; it is a movement not a moment. While last night was a tough loss especially for working families in OH-11, there is much to be proud about in the momentum and wins that have continued to mount for progressive candidates since 2018
From criminal justice to climate justice, Medicare for All, and ending gun violence

Democrats: We finally have the Senate and can pass meaningful legislation

This is why it’s imperative that in 2022 we elect truly progressive candidates who have the audacity and courage to wield power and legislate for the people!

This tweet 🔥; you can’t have bold change without taking risks; most won’t see the risks worth it until late and that makes your investment feel that much more sweeter... glad to have gotten to know you and partner with you!
Working Texans deserve a progressive champion who will fight and deliver for Medicare For All, good jobs, reproductive rights, a functional electric grid, and a better Texas. With his victory tonight,
@GregCasar
is one step closer to doing just that!
We get up everyday, go to work fighting to subdue the pain, and anger we fill inside, all to repeat the process the next day... being black does not allow true proper time to grieve because the wound of the last 400 years is constantly ripped open, expanded, and poured salt on!

“This is not just an issue for woman, this an issue for families… every fundamental freedom that I studied in law school years ago is at risk”
“When my great great grandson is born, he will be my faith made flesh.” If this line isn’t the definition of black peoples spirit of all we have endured, overcame yet still have left to hope for I don’t know what is

@brigidekelly
you were a great public servant & it was a true pleasure to work with you. Hamilton County & Ohio definitely lost a leader! My prayers go out to your family & friends during this difficult time.
DFA will strive to honor Kelley's legacy in all that we do. Kelley was a veteran comms professional of 20+ yrs working as a publicist, consultant, director & more for elected officials, gov agencies, & nonprofits. She is survived by her daughter Isabella, whom she loved dearly.

I am saddened by the passing of Fmr Secretary of State and General Colin Powell. He walked this world with much grace & humility and left a trailblazing legacy that made a positive impact on many, including myself. Prayers for his family & loved ones 🙏🏽
My thoughts on the GOP’s “effort” to pry black voters from Democrats as they start the RNC convention... “It’s almost hard to put into words the lack of authentic support when it comes to putting forward policies that build up the Black community,”
Justice couldn't wait any longer!
Congratulations
