I want my family and neighbors to be safe, it is not possible with Texas having any say over my life.

That's a normal thing to want, and I'm sure Talarico will be fighting so that we can all enjoy that safety again, in every state.

America broke for me in January and even this election did nothing to put any of the pieces back together.

America broke for many of us, but it's time to start putting some pieces back together. The election didn't do it for us, but it gives us the opportunity to start. It will take some time, but if we don't start then we'll never finish either.

You can either join us in putting the pieces back together, or reinforce the cycles of brokenness, or even sit on the sidelines and pretend to be morally absolved of any personal responsibility in the matter. That's your choice, I won't make it for you.
