The U.S. Constitution Fourteenth Amendment: “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.

The true 250th anniversary celebration. 💙

I have done this ever since I can vote, and I will continue doing this at EVERY election.

Equality is essential in democracy, no ifs, no buts, no conditions.

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.” ~~ Teddy Roosevelt

Intellectual diversity does not mean we have to entertain bad faith arguments. Some things should not have both sides. The Supreme Court should just repost the decision of the U.S. v. Wong Ark Kim, and uphold the birthright citizenship that’s enshrined in the constitution.

Birthright citizenship is enshrined in the constitution. No ifs, no buts, it’s settled and as clear as day, period.

Bravo, Illinois! Can’t wait to celebrate when history is made with two women of color as senators from one state. 💙

We are SOMEBODY. Rest in power, Rev. Jesse Jackson. 💙

“We are fighting over whether we are going to be a civilization rooted in empathy and kindness—or one rooted in cruelty and rage.” ~~ Gov. JB Pritzker Empathy and kindness will prevail, always. 💙

May we all have the passion, strength, and resolve of Rev. Jesse Jackson. Rest in power, sir. 💙

“Be loud for America.” ~~ Gov. JB Pritzker 💙

Love always wins. 💙 PS: would love to credit the source of the photo if anyone knows.

Massachusetts is not defenseless. Know your rights. Memorize them. Share them.   A message from my office, @markey.senate.gov, @massgovernor.bsky.social, @mayorwu.boston.gov, @pressley.house.gov, @whipkclark.bsky.social, @repmcgovern.bsky.social, and @trahan.house.gov.

Important 🧵 Minority party cannot magically fix what the majority party breaks. We have to give the democratic elected officials tools, i.e. obtain majority at midterm, if we want to restore checks and balances, and hopefully get out of the current existential crisis caused by the republicans.

⬇️ Minority cannot magically fix what the majority breaks, and no, people should not ask minority to break laws just because majority is lawless, either.

This is the correct take. You cannot only yell at minority for not magically fixing what the majority breaks, and you cannot ask minority to break laws, either.

“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere” May we all find the resolve to fight for a more just tomorrow.

“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly.” ~Dr. Martin Luther King Jr /Letter from a Birmingham Jail 1963

Never give up, and may we all find peace. 💙

People need to understand the Herculean efforts required for minority democratic representatives to push through this bill, which will literally save lives. 💙 Both sides are not the same. Our job is to vote straight blue at every election for the foreseeable future.

Compassion and peace will prevail. 💙

💙💙💙 “The American worker is not red or blue. Not white or Black or Latino. Not rural or urban. The American worker is all of us. And if we ever say that out loud at the same time, God help the people who profit from keeping us apart. We will overcome them.” By Christopher Webb and David Yankovich

Love and kindness will always prevail. 💙

“All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.” There’s no ambiguity or missing context here. Birthright citizenship is in the Constitution. End of!

Brilliant explanation!

I am thankful for this profound message. 💙

Brilliant! #GoodTrouble

Listen to experts.

This is the history that needs to repeat itself.

Civil duty time ✍️

We the people still hold the power with our purse. All of us need to participate the blackout on purchases, not just Black Friday, but everyday until we are heard…TOGETHER…NOW.

Been doing this since 1/20/25. 💙

"Autocrats despise and scorn their people." 💯

Solidarity! 💙

Human rights are not bargaining chips. Build an inclusive and diverse community always wins! 💙

Love and kindness will always prevail! 💙

Every word! The manufactured chaos has nothing to do with the garden variety made up talking points. It’s always been about obtaining control and keeping power.

Repeat a narrative enough times, it becomes alternative fact, even in a public kangaroo court.

Listen to experts!

Exactly! Objectivity and neutrality are not the same!

Public education is the back bone of a just and prosperous society.

“Be loud for America.” ~~ Gov. Pritzker 💙

Exactly this! Why and when is it ever ok for anyone to endure atrocities?

💯 “Dems care, and try, and for that are punished. GOP lies, hurts people, doesn't give a shit, and is rewarded.”

💯 Human rights are not bargaining chips!
