There’s a lot of “the marches didn’t actually do anything” going around and I want to share my experience. I’ve always been fairly tuned in to politics but 2017 is when I started marching. And that led to connecting to mutual aid groups that I’m still supporting with my time and money. 1/

It's critical for everyone to remember what an Executive Order is. It is the President communicating orders to members of the executive branch. Policies to pursue, actions to take, etc. They are not laws. They are not close to being laws. They are formalized memos to employees. That's all.
