So proud to see leaders suing to stop the illegal deployment of the National Guard in our community. We want poverty eradication, not military occupation! #freethe901

Praying for President @JoeBiden and First Lady Biden as President Biden fights cancer. Having lost both of my grandmothers to cancer, I know that fighting requires many prayers and love. Sending prayers to the Bidens as they take on this fight! We’re rooting for you in TN!

Cancer touches us all. Like so many of you, Jill and I have learned that we are strongest in the broken places. Thank you for lifting us up with love and support.

WATCH: “All Republicans do is lie… @SenBrentTaylor is saying people were yelling at him because of XAI. No, it was because of the offensive comments he made about Memphis students ‘hanging on like a crackhead’s last tooth’ — I’m glad they checked him.” Why you lyin’, Brent? 🤔

WATCH: “We are fighting it on our own… they left the people out that live in this city.” MEMPHIS folks are watching Elon Musk’s XAI supercomputer buy up more and more land and use more and more resources — getting few answers. (From @MemphisCAP_org)

News: The Southern Environmental Law Center alleges that the dozens of turbines powering xAI's supercomputer in Southwest Memphis are violating local and federal law. SELC (representing local enviro groups) wants SCHD to shut down the turbines & fine xAI. https://t.co/ZgW9m98Jee

xAI violated Memphis’ public’s trust and lied about the Colossus facility that is poisoning our air with gas turbines. xAI submitted a permit for 15 gas turbines, but have been secretly operating 35! These turbines can emit up to 16.7 tons of formaldehyde a year!

Gun violence and evil killed The Dreamer, but not The Dream. The struggle for Justice remains. As we cherish Dr. King's memory, we must commit to fight on to achieve the ideals he lived and died for-freedom, equality and social and economic justice.

Memphis, our nation and the world mourns as we remember the life and immortal contributions of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on the 57th anniversary of his assassination. April 4, 1968, is a day we remember, reflect and keep holy.

I stepped out to talk with a hospitalized family member during the voucher vote. My colleague cast the wrong vote for me. I’ve fixed it, and I am a firm NO. I will always support public schools. Below is my statement on the matter. Let’s continue to fight for public schools!

Instead of reading more ill-informed op-eds by folks who no nothing about electing anybody, I just finished reading @janekleeb’s book #HarvestTheVote How Democrats can win again in rural America. Written in 2020 & needed then & now! Let’s get road dust! https://t.co/BmC1k3cMf3
