When people bring hate to Cranston, we show up and drown them out with love. Proud of my city tonight. <U+0001F3F3><U+FE0F><U+200D><U+26A7><U+FE0F> #TransRightsAreHumanRights https://t.co/Z1yzOMLEHW
@repmorgan Rep, I think you know I like you, and I think you like me. I remember when you presented your CRT bill, @JoshuaJGiraldo offered to sit w/ you & discuss why it was so offensive and misinformed. I hope you take him up on the offer. I refuse to believe you can<U+2019>t be better than this.
The Rhode Island state legislature is made up of 98 Democrats and 15 Republicans. There is no excuse to not pass legislation to end the sale of high-capacity magazines and semi-automatic rifles. Children are being slaughtered in the classroom. Enough is enough. It<U+2019>s #TimeForAVote
After waiting 4 1/2 years on dialysis, this incredibly strong, brave, and inspiring young woman finally received a new kidney through transplant today <U+0001F389><U+0001F973><U+0001F388><U+0001F37E> Please wish @katierichard_ a speedy recovery, and please consider giving the gift of life by being an organ donor <U+0001F64F> https://t.co/76FVYtQvU9
Congratulations Congressman-elect @SethMagaziner!!! https://t.co/rw27SIZ2x0
A packed house and a ton of energy in Cranston for @SethMagaziner tonight. People here know who<U+2019>s fighting for working families and who isn<U+2019>t. https://t.co/6RSxO8DsBu
Let it be known: hate is not welcome here in Cranston. We won<U+2019>t allow children and teachers to be used as props to spread anti-LGBTQ+ bigotry and right-wing propaganda. We will defend the right for anyone to live as who they are. And we will be there to defend our LGBTQ+ friends. https://t.co/dcBIqBUR1C
The racism of Rep. Patricia Morgan's tweet isn't some new phenomena. It's the core of the Republican Party. So while some local Republicans fein shock and speak out, let me ask: where were all of you a year ago when this is what stormed through the halls of our Capitol? <U+0001F9F5>/1 https://t.co/aQVVwnLS6b
If Allan Fung had won his last election, he<U+2019>d be the Governor of Rhode Island right now<U+2014>and he would have vetoed the Reproductive Privacy Act in 2019. Rhode Island women have their reproductive rights protected in law because he was defeated in 2018. It<U+2019>s time to do it again. https://t.co/dsqmkthCEw
