UULM-GVP advocates showed up at the MD. Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense Advocacy Day on 2/5 and attended the Senate Hearing for HB 577. This bill would prevent the future sales of machine gun convertible pistols in our state.

Pew Research Institute (2023):

โ€ข Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants

โ€ข Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants

โ€ข Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

It's *not* about immigration.

In many states, UNARMED security guards are required to pass background checks, get licensed, complete training, pass a state exam. Meanwhile, we have ARMED ICE goons who donโ€™t pass background checks, are anonymous and unlicensed, terrorizing everyone. Thatโ€™s some BS #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue

ICE Adopts Gun Industry Marketing Tactics for Recruiting A new Washington Post report outlines how ICE is using gun shows, influencers, and militaristic ads to grow its ranks.

A new @washingtonpost.com report makes it clear that ICE is mimicking the gun industryโ€™s toxic marketing tactics, using militaristic ads and โ€œtacticalโ€ influencers to recruit thousands of new agents.

It isn't about fentanyl.

If so, he would've attacked Mexico and China.

It isn't about drug trafficking.

If so, he wouldn't have pardoned the President of Honduras.

It isn't about election integrity.

If so, he wouldn't have tried to steal an election here.

It's. About. The. Oil.

How to buy yourself a needy malignant narcissist? Just offer him a phony, made up "Peace Prize" & he's all your's!!!

Becoming a U.S. citizen takes years and involves immigrants acquiring a green card, extensive interviews, background checks, classes and a citizenship test. The naturalization ceremony is the final step to the process, where the oath of allegiance and a citizenship certificate are granted.
Immigrants approved to be naturalized went to Faneuil Hall Thursday - known as the country's cradle of liberty - for that long-awaited moment to pledge allegiance to the United States. But instead, as they lined up, some were told by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services officials that they couldn't proceed due to their countries of origin.

A drawing of the The Statue of Liberty in her bronze skin before it oxidized green,  her torch held high above a drawing of New York City circa 1900s  with schooners making their way up and down the Hudson River... 

In March 1933, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, his polio-stricken legs strapped to heavy metal braces, stood on the steps of the Capitol and comforted a nation... He told the American people, one third of whom were ill-clad, ill-housed and ill-fed, that they had โ€œnothing to fear but fear itselfโ€“nameless, unreasoning, unjustified terrorโ€ฆ.โ€

Today, that fear is not namelessโ€“it is named ICE and the terror that it has unleashed in our cities and neighborhoods, among our hardworking immigrant neighbors is not only unjustified but constitutionally questionable.

We have the opportunity...to end the fear and make our communities safe, not only for our immigrant families, but for ALL Marylanders.
We MUST ban 287(g) Agreements.

Itโ€™s almost lunch time- have you called Maryland State Senate President Bill Ferguson yet? Make sure to say thank you for his recent public position regarding 287(g), AND reaffirm that Maryland constituents want to see a clean and comprehensive bill. What else are you calling about? Call those reps!

Where do you stand?

You can want solutions for the unhoused, you can want safer cities, but you can also be dead set against federalizing them and against military occupation.

I stand with DC!

Cutting millions from mental health programs and closing the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention, while blaming gun violence on mental health only distracts from the real problem: Easy access to guns.
