As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous.

Forcing elected officials to sign β€œpermission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.

If the military academies are purging libraries of β€œThe Autobiography of Martin Luther King Jr.,” β€œEinstein on Race and Racism,” and a biography on Jackie Robinson, how long will it be before they eliminate classes on the Geneva Conventions and military obligations under international laws of war?

From the halls of Congress to the communities of Southern Arizona, America mourns the painful loss of Congressman RaΓΊl Grijalva, a passionate and undaunted servant of the people.

Sending love and strength to his family.

May his memory be a blessing to us all.
