Our Louisiana tax dollars at work. An added $48 million for prisons compared to $7 million for domestic violence shelters that @LCADV had to fight for. #lalege #lagov Data from @PARLouisiana
Incredible news from Oklahoma on their version of the Justice for Survivors Act. Next the OK House has the opportunity to stand with domestic violence victims who act in self defense against their abusers. We’re with you from Louisiana @FreeAprilW @OK_Appleseed !!

"I will closing by saying the first time I was sexually harassed, in my life, was right here at [this prison]. This place is as corrupt as any other federal women's prison." -woman transferred from FCI Dublin to another women's prison full of mold, asbestos & abusive staff
So grateful for organizers at @JusticesPromise to carry forward this event. The @LSReform coalition is work I am immensely proud of stewarding for 4 years. It is imperative that CJ orgs organize with survivors and victims’ families- it’s all connected. #SurvivorsSpeak #lalege

Instead of saying, “Professors and students are not criminals” try saying, “While there is a lower class, I am in it, while there is a criminal element, I am of it, and while there is a soul in prison, I am not free.”
Gonna say it again: @JeffLandry and #lalege want to remove the constitutional sales tax exemption on groceries, prescriptions and home utilities. That's $1.241 billion they could use to offset income-tax cuts.
Louisiana has nation's highest poverty rate, ranked worst state for working women. Today lawmakers killed min wage/equal pay bills, advanced measures to reduce unemployment benefits, repeal lunchbreak for working teens #lagov #lalege shreveporttimes.com/story/news/202… via @shreveporttimes
...what?
1/ Today, we blocked traffic on Poydras Street for two hours with a Passover Seder in front of @RepTroyCarter office building to demand that he STOP FUNDING GENOCIDE. We set up a seder table in the road, blocking traffic from the section of Poydras in front of the building.
Using sexual violence to punish sexual violence does not help us end sexual violence. #LaLege

Thank you to Rep. Denise Marcelle for standing with survivors of violence, victims’ loved ones, the Justice for Survivors coalition, and PJI. Though the #JusticeforSurvivors Act (HB 631) didn't pass, we'll keep fighting until survivors receive care, healing, and support! #lalege
A trans student at UL Lafayette died by suicide last week. Rep Roger Wilder (R-Denham Springs), sponsor of the trans ban; Rep Dodie Horton (R-Haughton), sponsor of the “don’t say gay” bill, this is on y’all Pull your hateful bills
Stay classy, District Attorneys.
The 1973-74 constitutional convention lasted a whole year - 52 weeks, with elected delegates sometimes meeting five days a week. @JeffLandry wants the next convention to happen in 2 weeks - May 20 to June 3 - while #lalege is wrapping up its work on hundreds of other bills.
📣 Survivors of Violence Lobby Day is April 25th! Join us in Baton Rouge to learn about the legislative process and connect with other victim-survivors. Advocacy is a form of healing! Transportation available. RSVP here: bit.ly/SurvivorLobbyD… #lalege #JusticeforSurvivors

If a 16-year-old wanted to adopt a child, the government wouldn’t allow it. She isn’t done with her education, she can’t financially support herself, and she isn’t a legal adult. But if she gets pregnant, the government can ban her from getting an #abortion. How is that logical?

We are so close to the Oklahoma Survivors' Act becoming law. We're asking you to call Oklahoma House Speaker Charles McCall for a House veto override vote for SB 1470 at 405-557-7412. Be polite -- it isn't McCall's fault that Governor Stitt didn't understand what he was vetoing!
