.@GlennYoungkin is hoping you won't notice that he caved to the Daily Wire and secretly eliminated suicide prevention resources for LGBTQ youth.

Walkout at Richmond’s Open High to protest the Youngkin admin’s new transgender policies
“I’m very proud to see my school come out like this,” Hedberg said. “I think it’s really beautiful when we all show up for each other. And I think that’s what people in power don’t want to see. @GovernorVA @JasonKamras
The walkouts come one day after the 30-day public comment period on the proposal opened. By 5 p.m. Tuesday, about 20,000 comments had been submitted. bit.ly/3SGdm3l

Today, books that shaped my life—and many others—are being challenged in schools, bookstores, and libraries by people who disagree with certain ideas or perspectives. Often, these “banned books” are written by or feature people of color and members of LGBTQ communities.

My name is L. Louise Lucas and after a few hundred years of white men as our Senate President Pro Tempore I decided to break the glass ceiling for African Americans and Women at the same time.
Now I’m standing up to Youngkin- please RT and help get my message out to more people!

In elevating national image, @GovernorVA plays hide & seek in #Va:
‘Youngkin has selectively engaged w/ the media, w/held public records requests in cases where his office has wide discretion & released fairly limited details about his schedule.’ apnews.com/article/covid-hea…
