Did you know? Today is the 34th anniversary of the Capitol Crawl.
Disability activists, demanding that Congress pass Americans with Disabilities Act, cast aside their mobility aids and crawled up the steps of the Capitol. history.com/news/americans-w…

The #WageGap keeps women in the cycle of poverty, unable to afford basic necessities. If it were eliminated, women would have additional money every year for:
🍼Childcare
🏡Rent
🏥Health insurance
📚Student loan debt
We need #EqualPay NOW!

We're angry & devastated by the murder of Nex Benedict. Nex deserves justice & accountability. We must hold elected officials accountable for passing legislation that threatens the safety & wellbeing of our 2STGNC+ youth. May our young relative find peace.
Nex Benedict should still be alive. Nex deserved not only a safe and nurturing environment to learn, but an environment that actively disrupted anti-2STGNC+ rhetoric and worked to ensure that vulnerable students were safe. Read more, here: freedomoklahoma.org/news/nex…

There are over 493,000 local elected officials who work in part-time roles with little or no salary. Our friends at @DisabilityVctry outline the barriers that make it especially hard for candidates from marginalized communities to run for office. (1/2)

Congratulations to @AmericaFerrera for receiving the SeeHer Award.
America played Helen Chavez in the "Cesar Chavez" biopic film. She was the recipient of the Cesar Chavez Legacy Award in 2014, which recognizes those who carry on the legacy of Cesar Chavez.
