👏Our heartfelt congratulations to Senator Eileen Flynn, the first Traveller person ever elected to the Seanad. ⚡This is the second time Eileen's made history; in 2020 as a Taoiseach's nomination, she was the first Traveller person in the Seanad.

On Monday, the battle for gender equality & disability rights will continue. I believe we will be stronger in those battles if we have a section in the Constitution marked care & weaker if we choose in 2024 to keep current patriarchal language & ideas. I'm voting #YesYes tomorrow

"Cohabiting couples with or without children and lone-parent families would have constitutional acknowledgment as a family unit. Also, fathers and kinship carers would be protected in the role they play in care in the family.” #VoteYesYes irishtimes.com/ireland/socia…
