Hello Friend,
?
Last
night,?after?denying the
will of the American people and?ignoring
our?pleas for
COVID relief, the Senate
strongarmed?the
confirmation of Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court of the
U.S.
But even as we?condemn?the?confirmation?of?a
Supreme Court justice who will serve their insidious ends, we?must
also remember that judicial power, like every branch of government,
needs checks and balances.?We?are that check and balance.?
?
?
As we
speak, young
people?across the
country?are?rising up. In the U.S., there are?more
than?83
million?people?between
the ages of 18 and 35.?Fourty-four?percent?of
us?are people
of color and?20
percent?of
us?identify?as
LGBTQIA+.?Our
numbers?grow?larger?every?day,
as?does?our
political power.?
We will use every bit of that power to build a real democracy
that?nurtures?healthy,?happy?communities?and?people.?No matter
how?SCOTUS?leans,
we?will
do?whatever it takes to reshape the systems that have
never served us so that?everyone?can
thrive.?
?

En Solidaridad,
Kimberly, she/ella
