Mandy Rae and I are in disbelief about the senseless violence committed against Speaker Mellissa Hoffman, John Hortman, and their families. These acts of terrorism by right wing extremists will not silence us. #nokings #hoffman #hortman

In what world is it acceptable for any organization to put a high school kid in a position that he’s translating deportation documents for adults, being fed crackers for dinner, and denied a religious text. Detention conditions like this need to be addressed @democrats.org
