Kyrsten Sinema ran on lowering prescription drug prices and now is trying to kill BBB provisions that would do just that.
A one month’s supply (4 doses) of just one of my lupus medications is $3,685.

I am not a big donor and I know that ASU and ASU Law will be fine without my donation, but I cannot continue to financially support an institution of higher learning while it punishes students for exercising their rights to free speech and to peaceably assemble.
I am running for City Council to build healthy, sustainable communities across Tempe. Together, we can show up for each other and invest in our community. Help us build a better Tempe:

While running for office, I've had numerous people directly criticize my voice. Not my policy stances, not my qualifications, my pitch—and how they or others may perceive it. Here is your reminder that women are electable if you vote for them.
Today I got a letter from my doctor stating that he willing no longer be accepting insurance because he doesn’t make enough money off private insurance reimbursement rates. He is the only specialist for my rare disease in the entire state. Again, fuck the US healthcare system.
I spent 3 days and 2 nights outside of Sinema’s office calling on her to support the full $3.5T climate and jobs package because Build Back Better helps cities tackle the climate crisis, increases cities' affordable housing investments, and funds universal Pre-K.

Yesterday Phoenix experienced its record-breaking 144th day this year with a high temperature of 100° or greater. 50% of 2020 has had a high of 100° or greater. This is an emergency. We need leaders who will act like it.
I am running for the Salt River Project Board, At-Large Seat 11! SRP Board may sound like an inconsequential elected position, but SRP is the largest public power company in the US and, despite our 300 days of sunshine each year, has only 3.4% solar in its portfolio.

As I lace up my canvassing shoes for the last time this campaign, I can’t help but look back on these last ten months with deep love and gratitude. I’ve worn these shoes to 121 canvassing shifts during which our campaign knocked on over 20,000 doors!

This morning I cried on the phone with my COBRA benefits manager and my health insurance provider. It should not be this hard to pay for health insurance.
I rely on hydroxychloroquine daily. People misusing this medicine have made it difficult for the people who actually need it to access their medications. This is dangerous behavior, Congressman.

By 25 I had been ASU student body VP. At 25 I graduated from ASU law. I had fallen in love and had my heart broken. I was just one year away from filing my candidacy. Trayvon Martin should have had these opportunities; he should be here today.

Trayvon Martin would have been 25 today. His legacy is honored every day by those who fight to end police violence and dismantle our country's legacy of racial terror. Happy birthday, Trayvon.

@HRC
to "call on our Senator
@KyrstenSinema
to end the filibuster." Read the full letter here:
Democrats should come together with one clear message on gun safety.
The federal gov't must:
1) Outlaw assault weapons and high-capacity magazines
2) Create a mental health database
3) Pass universal background checks
4) Pass a Red Flag Law
To the folks saying chronically-ill folks can just stay home until the pandemic is over, do y’all know some of us are sick? If I enter kidney failure, am I supposed to just stay home? If the hospitals are at capacity, where do I go?
