#ResistanceRoots Phyllis Lyon was born on this day in 1924 in Tulsa, Okla. She was an LGBTQ+ activist, feminist and civil rights icon who fought against discrimination by challenging entrenched institutions. She helped lay the groundwork for the modern gay rights movement and marriage equality. /1

Phyllis Lyon. Alongside her lifelong partner Del Martin, Lyon took an invisible, criminalized community in the 1950s and spent more than half a century building the social, legal and political infrastructure that allowed them to achieve full citizenship. She helped create the first national voice and survival lifeline for thousands of isolated women across the U.S. She challenged the internal homophobia of early Second-Wave Feminism, forcing the women’s movement to embrace sexual liberation as a fundamental right. She forced the two most powerful pillars of 1960s homophobia — the church and the medical establishment — to end police harassment and declassify homosexuality as a mental illness. She and Martin made history by receiving the first same-sex marriage license in San Francisco and the first legal same-sex marriage in California, transforming their private love story into the legal blueprint for marriage equality.

#ResistanceRoots The fight for universal healthcare may seem like a relatively recent phenomenon, dating from President Truman’s failed proposal for a national, publicly funded health insurance system in 1945. However, the fight goes back to the 1910s, and it’s linked to anti-labor forces. /1

President Truman addresses a joint session of Congress. On Nov. 19, 1945, Truman sent a groundbreaking Special Message to Congress recommending a comprehensive national health program. His five-part strategy included constructing hospitals and health centers, expanding public health services, investing in medical research and education, providing cash benefits and disability insurance to workers, and prepaid national health insurance. The American Medical Association launched a campaign against it, condemning the plan as “socialized medicine” and comparing it to communism during the early years of the Cold War. By 1946, “conservative” Repubs controlled both houses of Congress and blocked the bill. Truman tried again with subsequent messages to Congress, but the legislative effort ultimately failed. Truman later called this defeat the most troubling disappointment of his presidency. Photo credit: Harry S. Truman Library.

#Pinks 🌸💗🌸 MAGA men are currently acting to take away our rights to control our own bodies, our ability to succeed in business or make more money, & our rights to vote. Stand up. Get Loud. Vote for people that will protect our rights.

Dr. Annie Andrews has spent 20 years caring for sick and injured children. Now she’s running for the U.S. Senate, and she has a message America desperately needs to hear: "Please, please, please do not take your public health information from Donald Trump or RFK Jr."

This is a fact. They’re starting to realize just how many thousands it’s cost us with his reign and it’s pretty fucking eye opening if they hadn’t been paying attention before.

As I’ve said for 18 months, Trump can lie to them about a lot of things and they will buy it, but his lies about this stuff aren’t fooling anyone. People know how much they pay for things and how much money is in their bank account. The lies & denials only make people more angry.

Tasia Fortune was found hanging from a tree behind a vacant Jackson, Mississippi, home. This story isn’t getting the attention it deserves. Black people don’t hang themselves from trees, but we’re likely to see this ruled a suicide like all the others. www.mississippifreepress.org/tasia-fortun...

#AZ Kris Mayes built her reputation taking on utilities & delivering real savings to AZ families. Her opponent Petersen built his reputation on election conspiracy lawsuits. She's been winning cases that put money back in people's pockets. He's been losing cases that never should have been filed.
