When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

Legal conundrum: I believe I continue to serve as a NC county elections board member until a new board is sworn in July 22nd. State board staff tell county staff service ended June 24th, never notifying me, and conflicting with NCGS 128-7, affirmed by NC Supreme Court 2010.

In other words, defund Social Security guaranteeing that my children will not receive it and possibly even I will get limited benefits 7 years from now. Good job.
Apparently this political email was sent to everyone with a Social Security number.

This is possibly a good thing. Let’s make sure everyone’s voter registration is in perfect shape and make sure every registered voter has acceptable voter ID. The NCDP needs to be making sure this happens.

Ages 0-4 are the most important, emotionally & intellectually, in human development.

Yet, in the US, we have a very high rate of childhood poverty and a broken child care system.

Congratulations to New Mexico for leading the way forward for high quality, free child care.Β Other states must follow.

What’s wrong with the Democratic Party is what these pathetic idiots are posting. No leadership, no fight, no articulated values or principles. If you’re not defending the Constitution, what are you even doing?
