I’ll be co-leading the Earth Day Cleanup at Father Hennepin Bluff Park on Saturday the 19th! We will pick up a lot of trash that otherwise would be carried down storm drains and into the river. (Plenty of other clean-up locations, but I can’t guarantee they will have treats!)

Today is Election Day! UFW volunteers are getting out the vote in AZ, CA, NV & WA State. They support Kamala Harris who's been a loyal friend of working people vs Trump whose campaign is built on hate & fear - terrorizing communities by saying immigrants are criminals. #Vote

One of my family members is able to vote for the first time since leaving prison because Minnesota made it legal to vote while on parole and that makes me very happy. He sent a photo of him and wife and kids at the polls. 🥹🥹🥹

Here's Philly rap legend Freeway canvassing with LeVar Burton singing the Reading Rainbow theme. You can see how much it touched Burton. National media loves to hate Philly because of the Eagles fans from the Northeast, but fuck all that noise Philly is the best.

I don't know who needs to hear this...but if you're in recovery from drugs or alcohol, don't let anxiety about Tr*mp take that away from you. Have a plan for election night and the days after. You've got this.
