Love seeing the home town make some good headlines nationally for once.
Unfortunately Katie Valenzuela who introduced this bill was just defeated in the recent election. Lost by only 500 votes with 8% turnout. People don’t like the direction of the country but won’t show up to support those fighting to make it better.
You’re talking about a country where Republicans have spent decades telling people their votes don’t actually matter. That’s what we’re fighting against.
Well they definitely don’t deserve it but I do wish they would pay a bit closer attention to what’s going on around them. On the other hand they live in an exploitative system that leaves little time or space for the human connections that could help build consciousness. It is a thorny issue.
Of course they deserve it. Democracies give a great power to the people, and with great power comes great responsibility. If people neglect their responsibility they deserve the consequences.
The transgender sanctuary city policy will restrict staff from using time or money on efforts from outside states' legal action against people seeking gender-affirming care.
Has this even happened? Sounds like it would be pretty quickly ruled unconstitutional under the commerce clause.
Give me your hungry, your tired, your poor - I'll piss on 'em
That's what the Statue of Bigotry says
Your poor huddled masses, let's club 'em to death
And get it over with and just dump 'em on the boulevard
Sadly I think the original poem has always been a lie. We’ve historically treated all immigrants like a subhuman species; black people, the Irish, and jews, in particular. (Antisemitism being frowned upon is a relatively new thing)
Not necessarily. It was frequently used that way during the Trump administration but sanctuary doesn’t have to be specific to a certain group of people to qualify.
