SB 326 was introduce by NC lawmakers that would allow absentee ballots voted & postmarked by Election Day to be thrown out if they are received after 5 PM. This bill is part of a national strategy to silence voters- particularly BIPOC voters. Act now: actionnetwork.org/le…

As Presidents Reagan, Bush, Clinton & more continued to support the Drug War, @Dea’s annual budget ballooned - $65M to $3.1B. Trillions more have been spent on incarceration & military drug enforcement. #NoMoreDrugWar youtu.be/7PGeMjGQ_oY
The Drug War disproportionately impacts poor folks & BIPOC, while Big Pharma has seen few consequences for exploiting FDA protocols, lying about the addictiveness of prescription opioids, promoting their use, & accelerating overdose death rates. #NoMoreDrugWar #EndOverdoseNow
#COVID19 has shown us what public health measures look like and how to mitigate loss of life while we try to heal a public health crisis. Substance use is NOT a criminalization issue, it is an issue that needs a public health response. #NoMoreDrugWar #HarmRedNow
The fentanyl analogues ban is the @Dea’s attempt to prioritize criminalization over evidence-based public health solutions to counter the overdose crisis. We need solutions rooted in compassion, not incarceration. #NoMoreDrugWar Learn more here: youtu.be/SULYceKQW54
The Drug War has put millions of people behind bars & separated thousands of families. #NoMoreDrugWar

Who’s next? 👀@DivestHarvard pic.twitter.com/MV7H…

RT @RepDeborahRoss North Carolina leads all other East Coast states in both offshore wind energy generation capacity potential and manufacturing potential. Offshore wind is projected to be a $140 billion industry in the US by 2035, and I believe we're positioned to lead the way in this development. pic.twitter.com/nNEk…
