The bigots really hate when you say Diversity Equity Inclusion and Accessibility when you’re talking about their attacks on DEI/DEIA 🤭

No, Mr. President, you cannot illegally arrest and detain legal US residents because of their political views or opinions.
In America, we have a little something called the First Amendment.
Throwing protesters in jail is yet another step on the path to authoritarianism.

🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.
Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.
Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.
TODAY is the showdown.
