It takes a lot of guts to share a story like hers. I hope people are held accountable for the nightmare Stacey experienced. She was a child. She should've been safe.

In light of today’s SCOTUS decision, every person of color with an accent in the US should probably carry proof of citizenship with them at all times - while working and everywhere they go. If you don’t want to be in a detention facility awaiting a friend or relative to bring it.

@dstowe1.bsky.social is right: Appalachian voices deserve to be heard in Congress. @aoc.bsky.social Let's make them listen. Can we read this essay on the floor?

As the β€œOne, Big Beautiful Bill” is under Senate debate/deliberation, request an oral recitation (& written copy) of
