Today, I tested positive for COVID-19. I was exposed at work here in CA. I’ll vote proxy this week rather than travel to D.C. I have the usual symptoms, especially a sore throat, so I’m communicating via text—and whiteboard.

For nearly 50 years, women have had the right to make our own decisions about our bodies. Today, that right was stolen from us. And while we may be devastated by this injustice, we will not be silent. We will not sit back as the progress we have already won slips away.

Equity is always 1 step forward & 2 steps back. When power is challenged, fears ignite their need to oppress the marginalized. We must sit in this discomfort, learn from it. Then gain the emotional & mental strength to fight for equity. Everyday 👏🏽 #RoeVsWade #AbortionRights

@vuelling Emma, Supervisor at Ibiza airport gate 6 was incredibly racist to a black passenger & then 2 mins later to 4 Indian passengers. She was inconsistent with bag checkin and the cue to get on the flight. Address Emma’s racism now! DM me. #racist #vuelingracism #ibiza

Yasss Speaker Pelosi designated Rep. Langevin, the first quadriplegic ever elected to congress to preside over debate today! #SpeakerPelosi #BlueWave #inclusion
What is killing me is the Republican narrative/rhetoric that this is a trail “innocent until proven guilty” when this is actually a job interview assessing truth, and judgement. #IBelieveHer #NoKavanaughConfirmation #KavanaghHearing
