We laugh and roll our eyes but people like this are why we are still in a pandemic, still dealing with variants, and still seeing 100s of Americans die *every day* from Covid.

I’ve never been more ashamed to be an American.

The 1619 Project forces us to decide whether we love human equality or the men who articulated that principle but violated it every day. We can't do both.

A student's household income should not determine the level of diversity or opportunities at their school. We'll be hard at work this summer preparing to advocate for boundary changes next year.

Maryland incarcerates the most young Black men in the entire nation. Police in schools are a direct pipeline. See how organizers across the state are fighting!

Interesting news this a.m.: In announcing the creation of a new task force to determine what social-emotional supports MCPS students need, Council Member Craig Rice says he no longer supports having SROs in schools. Rice has been a strong supporter of the program in recent years

Defund SROs and replace w/ clinical social workers! SROs DONT REDUCE CRIME and cause disparate harm to the majority of MCPS! #BudgetVoices2022 #moco @CmHucker @albornoz_gabe @willjawando @EvanMGlass @nancy_navarro @RicePolitics @MC_Council_Katz @hansriemer @Andrew_Friedson

Defund police from traffic enforcement! There’s no reason traffic enforcement can’t be automated, especially considering the worst disparities happen in traffic enforcement. Black people make up 18% of the pop. but are 63% of residents searched and cited. #BudgetVoices2022 #moco

Thanks to Marilyn for testifying about the importance of mental health crisis response that does NOT include police officers. We must adopt a program like CAHOOTS that uses mental health professionals to answer these calls, not armed police officers. #BudgetVoices2022 #MoCo

We’re watching tonight's @MoCoCouncilMD budget hearing with the MC Defund/Invest Coalition, demanding a just budget that values community support over criminalization. #BudgetVoices2022 #MoCo #JustRecovery
