America was founded on principles of equality & justice, and horrific realities of slavery & white supremacy. We must take an overdue step towards those principles by ending the loophole in our ban on slavery. No slavery, no exceptions. That’s what my #AbolitionAmendment will do. — PolitiTweet.org

A huge thank you to the Senators & House members who joined the letter that I and @RepJayapal @RepAOC & @SenBlumenthal crafted to stop Trump’s outrageous effort to deport these victims. We’re going to keep fighting for justice & accountability for those harmed while held by ICE. — PolitiTweet.org

The 13th Amendment abolished slavery—but not entirely. There was a loophole in that ban, which has weaponized our justice system against Black Americans ever since. For justice to thrive, it’s time to #EndTheLoophole. That’s what this amendment does. https://t.co/e1Iv5w1AyX — PolitiTweet.org
