The fact that ICE officers prevented a doctor from rendering aid after fatally shooting an innocent woman is sick beyond measure.
As we press for accountability, it is important that all of us spread the facts of this brutal and unjustified killing far and wide.

3/ If all you did this year was survive, that's ok.
Rest matters.
Asking for help matters.
Keeping your family afloat matters.
But as we move into 2026, let's also celebrate the small joys, wins and moments of beauty, even when life takes unexpected turns.
