We did some great work! Can't wait to see these action items implemented!! #antiracism #CHANGE
This summer I was fortunate to be on the Anti-Racism Task Force (ARTF) in College of Engineering at U of I. Here's our report, with 18 recommendations and detailed plans for each. Easily one of the most diverse+actively engaged committees I've been on! ws.engr.illinois.edu/siteman…

This was the right decision. I joined @RepRaulGrijalva on a congressional amicus brief supporting revoking these permits & halting operation of the Dakota Access Pipeline. DAPL should not be operating without a full assessment of its tribal & environmental impacts.
