Love the decision, love the playcall, love the throw. Dan Campbell forever.

You deserve a break on Sundays that doesn’t break the bank.

Pure, unmitigated rage coursing through my body over a call in a game I have zero investment in…football officially back 😍

Another shooting. This time in a Catholic school in Minneapolis. It shouldn’t be normal to see 5th graders give TV interviews describing seeing their friends shot. None of this is normal. This is not inevitable. This is a policy choice. Enough.

Next week, I’ll introduce a bill to prohibit the unlawful deployment of the National Guard to Michigan. #MILeg #NoKings

You’re not angry for no reason. You’re angry because you care. @moveon.org has the people. @runforsomething.net has the plan. Now we’re coming together to help YOU turn that frustration into power. 🗓️ Aug 18 @ 8PM ET— join our kickoff call. 🗣️ Stop waiting. Start running.

Some of the people who signed up to run for office with us? They’ve never done this before. But they care about their communities. And they show up. You can too.

Two progressive powerhouses. One mission. 💥 We’re teaming up with moveon.org‬ and tapping into their membership to recruit the next wave of young local leaders ready to transform government from the ground up. Let’s build the bench: https://wapo.st/4mj0wH4

Last week we launched a new community for folks thinking about running for office—and the feedback’s already 🔥: “Just getting started on the Ready to Run training! My inner child and outer hopeful progressive is very excited!” Join us: runforsomething.net/community

On Tuesday, @runforsomething.net is launching our NEW pipeline community -- an incredible *free* space for people thinking about running for office to learn more, talk to mentors & each other, and get support from our team. Join the call. www.mobilize.us/runforsometh...

Donald Trump can’t erase our history or our communities just by changing a website. But this should remind all of us that none of us are safe until all of us are safe.

Always true but especially true today: The only places we’re going to see meaningful progress for the next few years are state and local govts. Every local leader matters.

The fact that JD Vance cast the tie-breaking vote to gut Medicaid and SNAP after he talked about how much the community he grew up with benefitted from those programs in his crappy book has, I’m pretty sure, earned him a special place in hell.

SCOTUS is using the least serious arguments to erase LGBTQ+ people from everywhere they can, including schools. Now would be a good time to read Lawless by @leahlitman.bsky.social if you haven’t yet.

More than 50,000 new people have signed up to run for office since Trump's election in November, an unprecedented spike in young Democrats interested in seeking public office for the first time, says the progressive group Run for Something. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

An important thing to remember in light of SCOTUS’ ruling on gender affirming care for minors: it does not ban this care. It allows states to enact laws to ban it. Michigan does not have such a law, and gender affirming care should still be available. 🏳️‍⚧️

Breaking: The Trevor Project received a stop-work order last night on its contract with the national 988 suicide prevention hotline. The Trump administration is eliminating the option for LGBTQ callers to the hotline to press 3 and connect with someone who specializes in LGBTQ mental health.

I am excited to announce that I have been endorsed by Planned Parenthood Advocates of Michigan! I am a strong advocate for reproductive freedom for all. #AlexKingforLivonia

Today I took part in a press conference calling for peaceful protest in response to Donald Trump’s use of military force against Americans. This is straight out of a fascist playbook and cannot be normalized. We have no kings in the United States.

Immigrants who are following what they are supposed to do by showing up to their immigration hearings at the courthouse, are being arrested by ICE in Detroit today. This is appalling, and it is happening right here in Michigan. This is what happens without the sensitive locations policy. #momsky

Whether you can openly celebrate Pride or not, we are here for YOU!

I had a great time at my first Motor City Pride since coming out as bi this February! Great to see legislative champions of equality as well.

I’m excited to receive an endorsement from @mikalgoodman.bsky.social, a strong progressive and working class champion. #AlexKingforLivonia

Elon calls for Trump’s impeachment.

I'm ecstatic to share that I have been endorsed by UAW Region 1A! #AlexKingforLivonia #solidarityforever

I'm excited to announce that I have been endorsed by AFSCME Local 925! #AlexKingforLivonia

The importance of Pride rings hollow if we don't protect those in our community who are facing attacks. Not just during June, but every month, I pledge to defend the trans community against harassment, bigotry, and harmful policies. (2/2)

The first Pride was a riot led by a Black trans woman. Our community owes so much to our trans family, particularly now when they are being targeted by state and federal governments. (1/2)

In the state legislature, we expanded our state civil rights act to explicitly protect LGBTQ Michiganders from discrimination, and that’s the work we need to bring to Washington. No matter who you are, you are welcome here 🌈

Happy Pride Month, Michigan! The sun was shining down on Ferndale Pride yesterday — seeing everyone out and all smiles shows what I know: Hate won’t win if we stand together, stick up for each other, and stay proud of who we are.

Maybe we need US Senators who aren’t actually rooting for you to die.

I'm ecstatic to announce that I have been endorsed by LGBTQ+ Victory Fund, a national organization that works to elect LGBTQIA+ candidates at every level across the country! #AlexKingforLivonia #LoveIsLove 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Candidate Profile: victoryfund.org/candidate/al...

There are 31 @runforsomething.net candidates in contested elections *today* -- every single one has been knocking doors, making calls, and connecting with voters in genuine + authentic ways. Win or lose, they're doing the hard work to rebuild our democracy.

We're up to 46k people who've raised their hands to run for office since the election - a surge 3x bigger than in Trump's first year in office in 2017. No matter what happens, the Democratic Party will be a different party after 2026. www.notus.org/democrats/de...

$5000 “baby bonus” to encourage women to have more babies? Come on. That won’t even cover the cost of childbirth. Instead, here are 10 things we should actually do to make it easier to raise a family:

I talk to way too many people who simple don’t believe in the American Dream - can’t afford a house, can’t afford to start a family, can’t save for retirement. The status quo wasn’t working. But the answer isn’t to tear it all down.

He pushed us to protect the world we inhabit, the one God made for us. "Let us care for one another and let us be loving custodians of creation."

Pope Francis tirelessly centered humanity's goodness. He wasn't afraid to challenge us, to challenge tradition, to strive every day to make people feel more welcome, more seen, more heard, more understood.

Pope Francis, the Catholic Church’s first Latin American pontiff, has died. He was 88. Follow live updates: apnews.com/live/pope-fr...

Three years ago today, I stood on the Michigan Senate floor and said, “We will not let hate win.” I’ve heard from some of you that it feels like hate did win.
