A friend from Indiana called me upset about the #SCOTUS appointment of #AmyConeyBarrett. My friend’s son attended Trinity School run by #peopleofpraise. Ms Barrett was Trustee until 2017.
Student/Parent handbooks contain anti-LGBTQ, anti-#MarriageEquality language.
#BlockBarrett
Amy Coney Barrett signed letter entitled "Unacceptable," in 2012, attacking the ACA contraception mandate.
As my South Bend friend said, “It is hard to be part of such a small movement/cult and not agree with core positions.” #SCOTUSnominee

All three People of Praise Trinity Schools, including Greenlawn in South Bend, have a statement of values & behavioral guidance that directly undermines LGBTQ equality.
Marriage between 1 man/1 woman only
“As a former Trinity parent, reading it turned my stomach.”
#BlockBarrett
Trinity handbook also states “some students may also experience same-sex attraction. We believe that it is unwise...for teens to prematurely interpret any particular emotional experience as identity-defining “
“we ask students not to openly discuss matters of personal sexuality”

As GOP Senators try to explain why they don’t think #VotingRights are important, sharing here what each tweeted on #MLKDay
Find yours to retweet.
#MLK : “Our most urgent request to the president of the United States & every member of Congress is to give us the right to vote.”
But first, this message from, @BerniceKing
‘Please share this quote from my father #MLKDay2022 :
“I think the tragedy is that we have a Congress with a Senate that has a minority of misguided senators who will use the filibuster to keep the majority of people from even voting.”
You know what light would drive out the darkness for MLK and for your Constituents, @SenJohnBarrasso?

I was in the room where it happened when Susan Collins threw her support by Kavanaugh. Just before she spoke, in come a cluster of GOP congressmen - ones that all look like they’re over 100 - & sit behind her like vultures. My first thought was, ‘peer pressure from Cryptkeepers’
But, they know where the cameras are in the Senate Chamber and clearly carefully positioned the visual for a speech about accepting a Supreme Court Judge who had been accused of sexual assault - not investigated- drawing thousands of protesters from across the country. #MeToo
About 2 minutes into her speech, we saw where it was going and got up and stomped out as loudly as we could without getting arrested - they had already arrested some of her Maine constituents. Senator Collins glanced up as we exited.
(Hear at about 1.50 )
