Some gays are fuming after their gay cruise was denied entry into Turkey & Egypt due to "moral standards." The Virgin Voyages’ Scarlet Lady LGBTQ+ cruise sailed through the Mediterranean but was denied permission to dock at some locations. Turkish authorities say the cruise was chartered by a group "known for behavior that does not align with the values and moral standards of our society..." Passengers are mad that the countries didn't let them "be celebrated for who they are." "We thought that it would be a great opportunity for those people in those countries to also experience what it's like outside of the rest of the world where people can be free and be celebrated for who they are," a Miami resident said. Lmao.

Democrat Rep. Rashida Tlaib: “The political structures that we are surrounded by were built on slavery and genocide and oppression. Look at this room, motherf******. We aren’t going anywhere. Now we’re in Congress and every corner of the United States.”

1 in 5 NYC public school students are Black, but at Stuy - our most prestigious high school - 3 of ~800 incoming Freshmen are Black. We urgently need state legislation to modify the admissions process. A single test should never be only factor deciding who gets in & who doesn’t.

I want to create pathways for our young adults' careers as early as possible, because I want to keep our talented young people right here in Chicago.

Woo-hoo! The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act is officially law and will help make housing more affordable. Donald Trump refused to sign it—but it automatically went into effect while he was sleeping last night. Today is a huge win for working people.
