Star-shaped cells make a molecule that can ‘rewire’ the brains of mice with Down syndrome – understanding how could lead to new treatments Down syndrome results in changes to the structure and function of neural circuits in the brain. Delivering a specific protein to neurons could reverse these changes.

The 8 thought voters would forget. We won't. Their jobs are now up for grabs. #PrimaryThem #HealthCareForAll #DemocratsForThePeople

They didn't reopen government for the people - they reopened it for themselves. Every furloughed worker, every family losing ACA help knows who sold them out.

@SenAngusking, @SenatorDurbin,
@SenatorShaheen, @SenatorHassan,
@SenTimKaine, @Sen CortezMasto,
@SenJackyRosen & @SenFettermanPA you folded. You blinked when millions needed you to fight.

They caved. 8 Senators chose saving their jobs over saving lives. Millions lost leverage for health care so they could coast to re-election. #PrimaryThem

Grateful to the @NAACP chapter at Texas State for hosting last night's forum. Their century-long fight for justice continues today - in housing, wages, & representation. The work isn't done, but together we can build a fairer San Marcos. chasenorris.org

13/ Tagging our allies so this call carries further:
@EqualityTexas @ACLUTx @transED @HRC @LambdaLegal @GLAAD @TrevorProject @PPGreaterTX @TxFreedomCaucus @EqualityTexas

12/ Texas can be a place where everyone is free to be seen, to live, to thrive. Let’s build it together. #TXLege #Pride

11/ We will not be silenced. We will not be invisible. Pride is protest. Our history, our identities, & our futures depend on resistance, compassion, & resilience. 🌈✊

10/ • Mobilize the vote: Register, recruit, & vote out hate.
• Show up visibly: Pride, schools, workplaces—presence is power.
• Protect youth: volunteer, donate, uplift.

9/ • Organize & amplify: Support Equality Texas, ACLU of Texas, TENT.
• Hold lawmakers accountable at town halls & in the press.
• Fund lawsuits to block these laws.

8/ But our voices are louder. Our movement is stronger. And we have a plan. Here’s how we fight back:

7/ These bills aren’t just policy. They are acts of erasure. They endanger dignity, safety, & lives. They represent state-sanctioned cruelty.

6/ HB 1106 says refusing to affirm your child’s gender identity is not abuse. This legalizes harm in the name of “family values.”

5/ SB 8, the so-called “bathroom bill,” bans trans people from facilities matching their gender. Schools, shelters, prisons—$25k–$125k fines enforce this cruelty.

4/ HB 229 defines “sex” on official documents only by reproductive capacity. It erases gender identity, harms intersex Texans, & denies lived realities.

3/ But in Texas today, hard-won progress is under attack. The Legislature has passed cruel, targeted laws aimed at erasing LGBTQ+ people. Here’s what we face: 🧵

2/ Those marches sparked change—anti-discrimination protections, access to healthcare, marriage equality, & a culture that finally began to see us. Collective action works.

1/ 🌈 Pride is more than a parade. It’s protest. It began in 1969 at Stonewall when queer & trans people resisted police violence. One year later, they marched for rights & visibility. ✊ #Pride

7/ History shows what happens when vaccines are embraced, and when they’re abandoned. We can’t afford to go backward.

6/ Public health should be guided by science & compassion, not politics. Vaccines protect all of us, especially the most vulnerable.

5/ 🔬 mRNA research is especially promising. It can fight COVID, flu, RSV, HIV & even cancer. 🧬 Cutting it now means walking away from life-saving breakthroughs.

4/ These moves erode trust, weaken pandemic readiness, & threaten decades of progress. They turn back the clock to a time when outbreaks killed thousands.

3/ 👶🤰 He also rolled back COVID vaccine recommendations for kids & pregnant women. During the measles outbreak, he downplayed the crisis—even as unvaccinated children filled hospitals 🏥 … and one child died.
