Itβs amazing to me that itβs April and his name still isnβt everywhere. People are still wondering where this is going. More humane genocide, anyone?
Please help protect Oregonβs disabled children from state-sanctioned abuse! This bill will set us back years, unraveling the already-limited protections we have for our most vulnerable kids. Written testimony must be submitted by this Friday 7:59am. π #Oregon #Disability #Restraint #Seclusion #Abuse
There were no gender identity changes made. The reporting really needs to improveβlives are at stake. Do your homework.
I suspect itβs because these are state senate elections, and not for the US senate. Still, important elections for these states! Unfortunately Kristopher Harrison was disqualified.

For when you need a boost. We are not helpless! πͺ
