In 30 days, LGBTQ+ youth will lose the life-saving suicide hotline—a program that’s supported over 1.3 million young people.
When folks are in crisis, this admin chooses cruelty over care—every time.
But this is the party of “family values,” right?

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.
Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

The in-person assessment skills & critical thinking of RNs are essential to high-quality patient care. The hands-on work of caring for other people can't be automated. 🧵(1/4)
