Come on up! The water (and political climate) is just about perfect!

I had to leave - too much gun violence, too many white supremacists. When I ran the campaign to remove slavery from TN's constitution, I actually had multiple state reps and senators fight against it. Although it's quite an adjustment living in a blue state, I'll take it any day of the week!

Now, if I could just fix the landlord problems I'd be incredibly happy. For a state that brags about tenant protection, I still can't seem to get help with a landlord who refuses to clean six years of nicotine residue off the windows, window sills, etc. It's negatively impacting my health.

It's so weird when I hear fireworks go off at Oakland Beach and realize that they *really are* fireworks and not gun shots right outside my window! I think I've already reverse-aged 10 years lol. It's so surreal that I'm able to spend my lunch hour walking my dogs on the beach.

It was time to leave - I'd fought there for almost 30 years and decided that working remotely gave me the opportunity to live anywhere I wanted, and living on the coast in New England has always been a dream. I'm still trying to get used to not seeing nazis in the streets and hearing gun shots!

Finally back after a long move from TN to RI! If you live in RI or close by and want to share local and state political intel (or even just the best beaches, day trips, etc.) with a newcomer, please message me! Trying to orient myself to living in a blue state (ahhh - I can breathe now!)...

For so many women, the trauma of being raped doesn’t end at the hospital door. That’s where the 2nd one starts. The treatment, the follow-up care, the months of putting yourself back together. All of it lands on the one person who did nothing wrong. #ProtectSurvivors

To the political right/2A folks: I know things are confusing for you right now. It’s called cognitive dissonance. You’ve just figured out that progressives own guns and conceal carry them too and find it deeply disturbing. Welcome to our world.

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

Y’all know that agents are trained to describe incidents with canned language, right? For example, “he feared for his life/safety“ so he “responded with an appropriate use of force.” It’s CYA legalese. Private prison correctional officers use the same language when justifying excessive use of force.

In a world of hyper-partisanship, Gerald joined with this former Dem House caucus legislative analyst to build one of the most successful campaigns this state has ever seen. He was the type of majority leader that would trade barbs with Dem colleagues and then go out for dinner w/them afterward.

Gerald was one of the first Repubs to support the “Yes On 3” campaign that removed slavery from TN’s constitution. He donated his money, time, and brought others on board. I’ll always treasure a note he sent me congratulating me on the win and telling me I did a good job. Godspeed, my friend.
