🧵: Hearing is taking place for protesters arrested yesterday at Emory University. There were at least 23 people booked into the DeKalb County Jail. @ajc
My husband, my daughter & I have come up to Emory tonight to listen to speakers, participate, witness and hold space. I don’t pretend to have all of the details or answers, but I know this is an issue where I want to be a part of the solution.  And that starts with showing up.

🧵(1/6) Last night, the Georgia state legislature adjourned its 2024 legislative session without any anti-LGBTQ measures passing. Advocates successfully defeated nearly 20 bills intended to restrict the health, rights and well-being of Georgia’s LGBTQ community.
@StephenJOwens_ I relate my friend. I don’t think the average Georgian has any clue what is being done in their names - and with their tax dollars. You were such a resource for me and I wish you all the best!
After last night, I feel even more determined to work to get @JoeBiden re-elected in November. At one point after there were some protestors in the audience shouting at the three Presidents on stage, President @BarackObama made this point: 1/
Our bill offered a $300 tax credit for gun safe storage. GOP top sponsors. Passed overwhelmingly every step, up to the Senate floor. Senate GOP still refused a vote. We won’t stop protecting kids from gun violence. And you won’t hold the majority forever. See you next year.
Defeating those bills was one of the best parts of the Session!! #gapol
We will have a full statement in the morning, but for now, from the Capitol crew at Georgia Equality, we have adjourned for the year and successfully DEFEATED ALL ANTI-LGBTQ LEGISLATION in Georgia!!
We are happy @hannahcrileyy and Hazel reunited this morning! Very cool that Decaturish was able to play a role in her safe return :) decaturish.com/2024/03/medloc…
@fasc1nate In 1959, 9yo Ronald McNair was told he couldn't check out his books from Lake City's segregated library. He went on to become Karate champion, earned an MIT PhD in physics, and became a NASA astronaut. Today that library is named after him.
Huge missed opportunity of ‘24 legislative session is not fully expanding Medicaid. GA has 2nd highest uninsured rate in US & our hospitals (esp. rural) struggle to provide care to the uninsured. We could insure 100s of 1000s and save 100s of millions by expanding.
Senate Bill 233, the private school voucher, has a new substitute. This bill would create a new governing authority under the appointment of the governor to implement the voucher, that is given 5% of total appropriations. documentcloud.org/documents/2447…
If you're wondering why this authority wouldn't be placed under an elected constitutional officer in charge of education, the state superintendent, you are not alone.
Four years ago today, 26-year-old Breonna Taylor was shot six times and killed by police officers who forced entry into her Louisville, KY apartment. Her death sparked nationwide outrage and calls for an end to police brutality and gun violence against Black people. Our hearts…
The ‘24 session is heading into its final stages. I’m still hoping for a miracle that Medicaid expansion will advance. Our state would save massive sums of $, insure 100s of 1000s (GA has 2nd worst uninsured rate in US), expand access to care, & help hospitals stay afloat.
