Minnesota is my home and my first and one true love—I am life-long dem and human rights activist, trauma therapist, dog and cat lover, nature lover, Beatles lover, and full on book nerd. Let’s take care of each other.

If only she didn’t profess, sincerely, that both parties were the same right before the election this would mean more.

Okay—hear me out, but if Biden kept talking about whether or not he would get into heaven legacy media would have 3 week long press cycle thoughts.

Spread this around. Missouri and Ohio Democrats need at least 100,000 valid signatures to take on Republican gerrymandering maps. This is the fight 🔥

MO & OH Dems need us to help Rally support!

A commissioned poll shows nearly 1/2 of MO voters oppose the maps

The Dem committee needs over 100,000 valid signatures across multiple congressional districts before the state’s 90-day window expires on Dec. 11 to let voters decide on the maps.

Missouri Democrats have an opportunity to block a new congressional map. They say they’re largely on their own.

Despite relatively little investment from Washington, Missouri and Ohio Democrats are looking to block new Republican-drawn maps through uncertain avenues.

We should mandate a work requirement for House Republicans to get their health care. How about they have to work at least one week a month to keep their government health insurance?
