@indynextgen.bsky.social
A division of Indivisible, we're a Progressive community organizing group for the young & young at heart focused on creating local & systemic change.
Indy Next Gen proudly endorses @abdulelsayed.bsky.social We're tired of our hopes sold off by politicians we've been told are our only option. Abdul has a vision for what can be & a clear plan to get us there. He's the only candidate in this race that we trust to put our interests above his own
We’re excited to announce our endorsement of @abdulelsayed.bsky.social! Abdul is the leader this moment demands. As a physician, public health leader, and lifelong Michigander, he has dedicated his career to improving working people’s lives.
To all of my trans siblings: I see you. I cherish you. I grieve with you. I feel your rage and your fear. I'm so sorry that this country is run by spineless cowards who refuse to recognize your humanity.
Oh, there's actually just one opinion for both BPJ and Hecox. Basically there were two trans cases that were argued separately, but on the same day. Now consolidated into one opinion. 9-0, no title 9, 6-3 no constitutional protections for trans women either.
