Make sure that home depot knows that we find it absolutely unacceptable that they would allow ICE to abduct & torture their own customers.

AND THAT THEY SAY NOTHING ABOUT #ICELawlessness!

Post image Elizabeth Freeman (โ€œMumbetโ€) (1744โ€“1829) - Freedom Seeker and Early Abolitionist
Elizabeth Freeman, known as โ€œMum Bet,โ€ was born enslaved in New York around 1744. She later lived in Massachusetts and was enslaved to Cl. John Ashley, a wealthy, and prominent Revolutionary War leader, who helped draft the Stateโ€™s Declaration of rights, which included โ€œAll men are born free and equal, and have certain natural, essential, and unalienable rights.โ€. 

One day, the Colonelโ€™s wife struck Mum Bet with a burning shovel for protecting her sister. Mum Bet openly wore the resulting scar on her arm in quiet defiance; it would also be evidence in the suit Mum Bet filed against her enslaver. 

In 1781, with the help of lawyer Theodore Sedgwick, Mum Bet and another enslaved man named Brom sued for their freedom โ€” and won. The argument was revolutionary: Massachusetts's new constitution declared all men free and equal. Slavery contradicted this fundamental principle. Therefore, slavery was illegal in Massachusetts, and Mum Bet and Brom should be freed. Her landmark case, Brom and Bett v. Ashley, became a key precedent that helped end slavery in Massachusetts, making her one of the first enslaved women to gain freedom through legal action. After the verdict, Mum Bet chose a new name for her new life: Elizabeth Freeman.

Elizabeth Freeman's case set legal precedent that helped end slavery in Massachusetts. Two years later, the Quock Walker case (1783) cemented the constitutional argument against slavery, and Massachusetts became one of the first states where slavery was effectively abolished.
Freeman then went to work for the Sedgwick family, became a respected midwife and nurse, and owned her own home โ€” a rare achievement for women of her time. Her bravery and belief in equality helped lay the groundwork for the abolition movement in America.
She lived until 1829, dying at approximately 85 years old. The Sedgwick family had her buried in their family plotโ€”an extraordinary honor that aโ€ฆ

Is it possible that we can articulate that not every goddamn Senator that Democratic did this? Name the names. Let those people deal with the absolute discussed and dismay. We have because of what theyโ€™ve done & then vote the them out of the office. Hereโ€™s who voted with the Republicans. Ditch them

He did NOT do the right thing. It has been proven time and again the administration cannot be trusted. Where is the clause demanding no recission capability? Wake up and turn your job over to someone who is present and knows how to fight for working class people.

@schumer.senate.gov why are you working to appease MAGA republicans? Why are you working WITH AUTOCRACY?

Hand over your job to someone who understands what we are up against. You are not listening to all of us who want NO CUTS to MEDICAID no recission capability by the President and ACA subsidies.
