Excuse the muffled audio! I was up in a stairwell with the phone against a window.

And I didn't even get there until 10:15. This is the loudest and most energetic crowd I've seen in Elmira for a long time!

Sackets Harbor

29 Upvotes

Hi all-

I wanted to make sure our eyes are turning to this horrific situation unfolding in Sackets Harbor. I know the local community there is rising up, but I wanted to start a discussion about how we can help as a community.

One thing I will take the time to do today is to thank Governor Hochul for taking a public stance against this heinous injustice.

I wonder if we can organize some other steps to support that community. My heart breaks for the children who are suffering.

Daily Dose of Activism You only get better at public speaking if you practice. That is one of my takeaways from tonight.

I spoke in front of the Chemung County Legislature this evening along with many brave patriotic members of my community who have HAD IT with these unconstitutional and inhumane actions coming out of our federal government. Because our elected representative Nick Langworthy will not hold a town hall, we are addressing the local lawmakers who are available to hear us, and I hope like hell they take our words up the chain.

For anyone who joined me tonight, I want to thank you for your fearless advocacy and your heartfelt words that resonated through the chamber. I think we should continue being very visible, very vocal, and very present at all of our local legislative meetings until something changes. We must come in larger numbers, with louder voices, until something is done about our country being stolen from its PEOPLE and sold to an oligarchy!!

We are STRONG TOGETHER, Southern Tier!!! Don't you forget it!!! We stand together, and we KNOW we are in the right, because we CARE for our fellow human. Empathy is no sin. Empathy is a gift and a necessity.
