I am calling for Wilmer’s immediate release from NWIPC—he has NO criminal convictions, he poses no threat to the community, and he urgently needs appropriate medical care since ICE is denying him the treatment he requires.
I am grateful for Wilmer’s willingness to let me share his story.

The last Democrat to win the majority of the white vote was LBJ in 1964.
With a Democratic trifecta & a large moderate Republican faction in Congress, LBJ was able to get the Voting Rights Act of 1965 passed, but in the 1966 midterms, Democrats lost 40 House seats, 3 Senate seats & 8 governorships.🧵
