“We cannot be anyways tired, we cannot lose hope, because we’ve come much too far from where we started” - @OfficialMLK3
“The coup is ongoing, now it is fancy lawyers, it is corporate lobbyists, that are going to our statehouses and changing the laws to make it harder to vote, to make it harder, more importantly, to protect ourselves”@RepRubenGallego
