CW: Nebraska: Machaela Cavanaugh
Read this piece about the vote on #Nebraka's #TransBan and #abortionBan
Learn how many of the people voting to pass laws that kill people don't even know, let alone give the first flying fuck, what they're voting on--they just march in the direction their GOP leader points them to.
And learn about #MachaelaCavanaugh, fighting for the lives of children and adults, and the survival of democracy.
And if you rage, find a way to make it count.

CW: U.S. Politics, Nebraska, Machaela Cavanaugh's filibuster continues
State representative Machaela Cavanaugh has been filibustering efforts to, in essence, legislate hate against trans children, for almost eight weeks straight. State senator Megan Hunt has joined in her efforts to protect trans children in #Nebraska.
Thanks to their combined effort, the session has been as painful for Republicans as promised.

What a #hero! #Nebraska State Senator #MachaelaCavanaugh, declaring she would "burn the session to the ground" has been filibustering every bill that comes before the Legislature in order to protest against advancement of a bill that would outlaw gender-affirming therapies for transgender youth. She's paused to in order to debate the bill and force a vote. https://ktar.com/story/5475131/debate-on-nebraska-gender-affirming-care-bill-gets-combative/

CW: Nebraska, Machaela Cavanaugh, transphobia
Nebraska state senator Machaela Cavanaugh promised to grind the legislative session to a halt if the state entertained a ban on transgender care and trans children in sports--and she has.
This is what Democrats can do, and this is what they should do-every fucking where.
Less hand wringing, more fucking doing.
