The #Access2Care becoming law is a testament to MD's commitment to inclusivity & healthcare access for all residents. This milestone wouldn't have been possible without the dedication of @govwesmoore, bill sponsors Delegate Bonnie Cullison & Senator Antonio Hayes, and our state legislators.
Maryland leads the country in incarcerating young Black kids.
HB814 will make that worse.
If the bill goes into effect, more elementary school kids will be incarcerated for minor offenses and put in jail before court.
Governor Wes Moore our kids need you to VETO HB814!
This morning, We also spoke with several Councilmembers about our priorities and urged them to save the vital programs and services that Mayor Bowser cut in her budget proposal. 💰

We, along with 49 partner organizations, are calling on the Mayor Muriel Bowser administration and the National Park Service to STOP the impending Foggy Bottom Encampment Evictions this week. Housing, not evictions, is what ends homelessness.
