In the face of the illegal and harmful actions by the Trump Administration, many of us are struggling to find direction and a path forward. My message, delivered at a recent Indivisible Town Hall, is simple--we must all lean in. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2AtK...

America was given a choice between a lawless, amoral monster and a qualified, intelligent, joyful woman of color—and it chose the monster. We need to reckon with the reality of what that says about so many of us here. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/america-ch...

It was meaningful to have over 1,000 people join Congresswoman Pettersen and I to discuss their concerns with the Trump Administration's illegal actions that have harmed Colorado. Our democratic republic is a team sport and the voice of We The People must be heard. www.denver7.com/news/politic...

Trump's repeated attacks on "DEI," "wokeness," and the trans community have one clear purpose: If we are angry at each other, we won't look up to see how big corporations and billionaires have rigged markets and siphoned off most of the economy's gains.

America will not be made great by dismantling DEI, firing federal workers, pulling research funding, attempting to privatize the Veterans Health Administration, increasing costs for every day people, deporting immigrants regardless of their status, and being anti-trans. #HateNeverMadeANationGreat

This really tells you all you need to know. They claim to support vets, and they know how to play the game with messaging and symbolism to exploit their patriotism, but every once in a while the mask slips and you see that they really think we’re just suckers and losers. bsky.app/profile/atru...

In thinking about mental health and wellness, we want to recognize other groups under persecution as well: people who are transgender/nonbinary, have disabilities, don‘t have documentation, people of color, and others. Take care of yourselves, find your communities, be allies and support each other.

I appreciated meeting with Vermont veterans to discuss veteran homelessness, mental health, health care and other issues at the VA. Veterans put their lives on the line for this country. We must do everything in our power to ensure they receive the benefits & care they earned.
