Legalizing cannabis is taking on added urgency now, not only because of people unjustly incarcerated but also for medicinal and environmental reasons. Time to scrap what should never have been a prohibition in the first place. @POTUS
My first campaign ad, ‘37 Seconds.’ #JustLikeMe
I hope this ad works to not only destigmatize the use of marijuana, but also forces a new conversation that creates the pathway to legalize this beneficial drug, and forgive those who were arrested due to outdated ideology.

If someone is worried month after month how they'll pay next month's bills no matter how hard they try, plus what will happen if a family member gets sick, they begin to experience a permanent state of trauma. But it isn't a mental health issue - it's an economic injustice issue.

To counter the "three evils" of racism, poverty, and war, Dr. King said we needed a "radical revolution of values."
The same is true today. mariannewilliamson.substack.…

Say it again, Dan.
Since the pandemic started, ten U.S. men doubled their collective wealth from $750 billion to $1.5 trillion. They pay a lower tax rate than the middle class.
We just sent 5 million kids into poverty by taking away the child tax credit to "save" $60 billion.
Billionaire tax now.

Oh no you don't. Dr. King was in Memphis that day to SUPPORT UNION WORKERS, not to do charity work. No amount of private charity can compensate for a basic lack of social justice.
We're all better when we come together. 💚
Inspired by Dr. MLK Jr.'s legacy, join us this Monday and beyond in strengthening our communities through volunteer experiences focused on supporting youth in collaboration with @CityYear, @JA_USA, @MENTORnational.

Our federal government is filled with political car mechanics; to them, that's the definition of "qualified." But the problem isn't with the mechanics of the car. The problem is that we're driving on the wrong road.
