Thank you for standing up @bulletproofpride.bsky.social “This is dangerous. They say that it’s to protect children, but they’re trying to prevent people from getting care that actually lowers the rate of suicide for trans youth and trans people in general.” www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

POV: You've tweeted about trans kids more than you've passed bills. Let's make sure her final act is as successful as her legislative record, a flop. Call your Reps and demand they vote NO on H.R. 3492 and H.R. 498, MTG and Crenshaw's transphobic bills. Call (202) 224-3121.

As college students, this is the time of year for exams and looking forward to going home for the holidays. Now for two familes and possibly more, chairs will be empty at the dining room table. We as students, as survivors, and as Americans, deserve better than this.

We offer our unwavering support to the Providence community and to the Brown University students, faculty, and staff who have been impacted by this tragedy.

Police are responding to reports of an active shooter on the campus of Villanova University. According to messages from the university’s alert system, students were instructed to lock and barricade doors and move to secure locations. Students moved in on Wednesday. apnews.com/article/vill...

Doug Burgum is just lying on national TV. D.C. doesn't even make the cut for the top most dangerous cities in the U.S., let alone the world. The most dangerous thing about D.C. is that its police are now under control of a power-hungry president.

According to Reuters, “The Trump administration has terminated more than half of all federal funding for gun violence prevention programs in the U.S., cutting $158 million in grants.” This comes less than 48 hours after the shootings in New York, Nevada, Georgia, among others. We are outraged.

Today I testified against Texas’ plans to redistrict because no one benefits besides those in power from an inefficient, inaccessible, and gerrymandered government. Representation only works when the people are actually represented, not the party.

We are facing the most brazen attack on civil rights in generations. On July 17th, five years since the passing of Congressman John Lewis, we're mobilizing to make Good Trouble and carry John Lewis’ legacy forward. Join a #GoodTroubleLivesOn event in your community: goodtroubleliveson.org#attend

Very proud that our daughter @scoutcardillo.bsky.social @bulletproofpride.bsky.social are quoted in this article. www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/s...

When our rights are under attack, we fight back. Join us for our emergency rally outside of the Supreme Court tomorrow June 27th @ 11 am on the final day of the SCOTUS session, where decisions on LGBTQIA+ rights, voting rights, and immigrant rights will be released. We will see you there.

Reading this Skirmitti ruling is Roe 2.0

We’re hosting weekly training sessions to hear from pro-democracy leaders/champions and learn how students can organize to protect our speech & rights on campus. Please use the links below: DC specific/IN PERSON: www.mobilize.us/publiccitize... **VIRTUAL**: www.mobilize.us/publiccitize...

On college campuses, advancing autocracy threatens our right to speak & organize freely, threatens education & research funding, and our most vulnerable students. In this critical moment, students have the opportunity to play a central role in the anti-authoritarian movement. 1 of 2

As y'all know, we are a youth-led grassroots organization & we need your help spreading the word. Join us for our protest in D.C., on June 6th, National Gun Violence Awareness Day, to come together to defy the Trump Administration's attacks on our youth. At the end of the day, we keep us safe.

I’ve spent the last month on the campaign in the Upper East Side of NYC working to get Collin Thompson elected for NYC Council District 5! If you are in the district/know people who are, please get them out to vote! We’re running an entirely grassroots campaign & need all the support we can get!

Many great events coming up soon for National Gun Violence Awareness Day (June 6th) and Wear Orange Weekend (June 6-8), including this one from the amazing leaders at @bulletproofpride.bsky.social @halleh13.bsky.social @indivisible.org @krisbrown.bradyunited.org @jrnewtownaction.bsky.social

The American people deserve better than living in an episode of the Handmaids Tale. Join Bulletproof Pride June 6th in D.C. RSVP here: wekeepussafedc.eventbrite.com

Angry about cuts to SNAP, Medicaid and Medicare? This is for you. Angry about gun violence? This is for you. Angry about the climate crisis? This is for you. Angry about our democracy being at risk? This is for you. We keep us safe in times of uncertainty and pain. Join us 6/6, we have your back.

MAGA Republicans would much rather spend their time obsessing over LGBTQIA+ people than addressing affordable housing, rising grocery prices, or gun violence in our communities.

SHAME LISTTTTT

"Bulletproof Pride’s mission is to bring the voices of LGBTQIA+ youth and other marginalized communities to the table when addressing gun violence. We also understand that gun violence is intersectional and not one size fits all." @bulletproofpride.bsky.social @changetheref.bsky.social

I will forever and always be committed to standing up for my community in the face of oppression. Trump’s fascist Project 2025 Agenda is impacting marginalized communities across the country. Want to help fight back? Join the We Keep Us Safe Campaign started by @bulletproofpride.bsky.social

Trans history is Black history, and you cannot have one without acknowledging the other. The National Park’s attempt at erasing Queer and Trans history is disgusting and we condemn the edits made to the Stonewall Memorial website.

Good news! A federal judge has temporarily BLOCKED President Trump’s illegal executive order targeting trans youth and young adults!

As a former athlete myself, this ban hits way to close to home. Sports is lifesaving for so many trans people and everyone regardless of their identity deserves the chance to play. Call your lawmakers and tell them to vote NO on HR28 #trans #athlete #policy

The Delaware Republican Party has invited Nancy Mace and Riley Gaines to speak at a private event on January 10th. A thread:

I turned 20 today!!! So grateful for another year of organizing with my favorite people. Can’t wait to see with this year brings!!

Good morning! Today, I’m *supposed* to be sworn in for my second term in Congress. But before that happens, the House has to elect a Speaker. It’s looking very likely that House Republicans won’t be able to do that on the first ballot (sound familiar?). See ya at noon!

Thank you for your dedication and service to our country President Carter. We offer our condolences to the Carter family.

Rest in peace President Carter

Check out our LGBTQIA+ Policy Director, @viennacavazos.bsky.social’s piece on page 55 of Camp Rehoboth’s December Issue!! www.camprehoboth.org/letters/

A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to speak in front of the Supreme Court to advocate for the Equal Rights Amendment and the opportunity to codify the LGBTQIA+ community into the constitution. This is a must have before the Trump admin. in a few weeks.

The Senate has passed the transphobic NDAA bill (85-14) This now goes to President Biden’s desk. It is unknown what his stance is with the anti-trans amendments. He has publicly stated that he would veto any anti-LGBTQIA+ legislation; that promise is now being put to the test.

Woke up at 6:30 am for a rally in DC today. In dire need of a coffee but ready to advocate for the Equal Rights Amendment!!

Tomorrow, 12/10, we will be joining coalition partners at the Supreme Court at 3pm. The ERA is essential in protecting LGBTQIA+ rights and gender affirming care. “We the people” demand Biden to publish the ERA now. #era #eranow #equalrights

Our Executive Director @scout-bpp.bsky.social will be speaking at the rally tomorrow. You don’t want to miss it!!

Vienna Cavazos, 18, traveled from Delaware because the case is extremely important to them and their family after they moved away from Texas in 2022 amid state investigations into the parents of trans kids. “We’re going to seek the health care whether it’s legal or not.”

#GVP advocates and #admin law folks: A behind-the-scenes aspect of firearm policy is the public comment period on new, very-specific ATF rules for gun dealers and importers. In today's newsletter, ATF outlined which rules are now open for comments:
