Seeing interviews with Pope Leo’s very normal American brother is so disorienting.

It’s Day ✌🏻!

It was a great first day at @ballotstrategy.bsky.social #RoadAhead25! I was thrilled to speak on a panel.

It’s been inspiring to be in community with state-based advocates, ballot measure experts, and movement leaders who are doing so much incredible work across the country.

There are hundreds of people right here in Kentucky taking action this weekend.

A town hall in Lexington, a Medicaid rally in Louisville, a Veterans rally in Owensboro, and the list goes on.

The CATS knew we all needed this win.

This will cause sweeping harm & people will die.

What are y’all doing to take care of yourselves and each other this weekend?

Honored to have been asked to participate in today’s @kypolicy.bsky.social conference.

It was great to be in community with so many people committed to building a KY our kids deserve.

Who are y’all’s favorite Bluesky follows? Still looking to find people over here!

“Last November, 65% of Kentucky voters rejected the constitutional amendment which was defeated in every county.”

From @aacquisto.bsky.social, she needed an abortion but Kentucky's near-total ban prevented it

Doctors in the state have long warned that the ban forces women in need to wait for care until it may be too late or go out of state

Biden: "I want to warn the country of some things that give me great concern. That's the dangerous concentration of power in the hands of a very few ultra wealthy people and the dangerous consequences if their abuse of power is left unchecked. Today, an oligarchy is taking shape"

Governor Lee cares about 2 things: money and himself.
