Cesar Chavez, presente! Farmworkers union cofounder would be 94 today. His memory lives on in the hearts of hundreds who worked & organized in struggles alongside him, in the millions of Americans determined to win fair reward for the toil & sacrifice of workers, & in the #OvalOffice of President Joe Biden. We honor him best by building lasting coalitions, with solidarity & trust & informed, relentless participation, to make the promise of economic & social justice real. #SiSePuede

Wow! What a brilliant, well qualified 1st cohort of appointees to the #FederalBench by #PresidentBiden. And 9 of these 11 nomínees are women; 2 have backgrounds as public defenders. THIS is the change we voted for: Making good on promises to improve the quality of judicial nominees, which benefits ALL Americans. #MakingHistory for long-repressed, often ignored, under-represented communities. This remarkable group includes the 1st Muslim American federal #judge. #AppointmentsWithJustice #YesWeCan https://abcnews.go.com//biden-taps-11-judicial-nomi/story

Sorry, billionaires: Turns out even conservative voters embrace the progressive goal of protecting #VotingRights. With extremists reeling from gut punches like this, HERE is our chance to defeat #JimCrow2. We can pass #S1, the election-reform, voting-rights #ForThePeople Act, NOW! And Democrats will not rest until we do! #HR1 #LetPeopleVote #StopVoterSuppression https://www.newyorker.com//inside-the-koch-backed-effort-t
