Tomorrow #SCOTUS will hear the Vaello-Madero case. 👀 We'll be following in hopes the court ends the discriminatory exclusion of the millions of mostly Black and brown people living in the territories from critical SSI benefits. Learn more about the case. demos.nyc/3H0xU1o

Haley is a 17 year old with downs syndrome who would be eligible for SSI next year if she lived in the states instead of Guam. The Supreme Court and Congress have the power to change this. They should act. #IamJosé #GuahuSiJosé #VaelloMadero equalrightsnow.org/iamjose

Today, the Supreme Court is hearing arguments in a case that could uphold the rights of Puerto Rico residents. People who live in Puerto Rico are entitled to live under the full protections of the US Constitution. Period. thehill.com/blogs/congress…

My name is Andy Parker. When my daughter was killed on live TV, I had a choice to retreat into my grief or honor Alison’s life through action. Now, I am running for Congress as a proud Democrat to fight for Virginia. Help me by retweeting, following, and amplifying my message.

Biden's DOJ continues to rely on explicitly racist cases to supports its view of how the Constitution should be read: equalrightsnow.org/biden_harris_j… #racialjustice

1/6 It’s great that President Donald J. Trump is helping bring much-needed aid to #PuertoRico. Not so great though that his Admin continues propping up the #InsularCases and the colonial framework they established. Here’s what you need to know about los #CasosInsulares.

Our federal government has a moral and legal responsibility to help the US citizens of #PuertoRico recover from the #HurricaneMaria tragedy just as it would help any other group of American citizens. #TakeAction4PR #HurricaneMariaRecovery takeaction4pr.org/take-action-20…

The Insular Cases still prevent millions of people — overwhelmingly people of color — from accessing certain constitutional rights and protections. It's long past time for the Supreme Court to strike down the Insular Cases once and for all.

The U.S. has a colonies problem, and today #SCOTUS took the side of those refusing to admit it. By denying Fitisemanu, the justices permit U.S. territory residents to be treated as second-class citizens and allow the racist #InsularCases to keep them “separate and unequal.” 1/2
