In our community, we’ve seen families torn apart, loved ones disappeared by masked men, and protestors thrown to the ground.

I won’t stop fighting for compassion, dignity, and justice. In Congress, I’ll fight to end ICE’s reign of terror. No one should live in fear.

Millions March & Trump Takes a Dump as Usual
by @pattivasquez.bsky.social
Last weekend, I stood in front of 1000s in Arlington Heights, Illinois at a #NoKings rally. My voice shook a little. Not from nerves, but from rage tempered by love.

This is        and I was helping the food pantry yesterday. I just wanted to say thank you for all of your help! We were very overwhelmed with all of the support from the community, especially since our donations have been a bit low this year. We couldn’t keep up organizing all of the donations but we had some volunteers who jumped right in and helped us! We filled every red tote box and bucket we brought and then some! Folks were bringing in food until after 5pm! 

Not every city has a food pantry, so some cities partner up with other communities. I made a large board with the local pantries in the area, just in case if people wanted to volunteer or donate locally. 

Anyways, I just wanted to thank you for everything! We had a lot of fun and      , the pantry director, is truly appreciative of each and every person who donated.

This is how the people fight. Through community. Not combat. #NoKingsDay was a historically massive protest. Even in the suburbs like Arlington Heights #Illinois
Over 12K showed up to protest, while an estimated 250K showed up in #Chicago. @pattivasquez.bsky.social showed up along with community 1/2

Indivisible's response to Mike Johnson's stupid comment about No Kings being the reason for the government shutdown.
"Speaker Johnson is running out of excuses for keeping the government shut down. Instead of reopening the government, preserving affordable healthcare, or lowering costs for working families, he's attacking millions of Americans who are peacefully coming together to say that American belongs to its people, not to kings."
