Abortion should be a right. The right to choose is crucial and because of the overturning of Roe v Wade, several people are unfortunately no longer here when they should be. Gender affirming care is also crucial because no one should govern anyone's body. Human rights include the right to choose!
Gender-Affirming Care literally saved my life. I was going nowhere in it and never felt like I had a place in this world until I came out and was able to start making the transition into the real me. All of this, including reproductive rights, is about bodily autonomy and that is a right which should be as inalienable as any of the liberties and rights we are granted in this country and state.
I have two children on the spectrum and I am terrified that she would be harmed because she is aggressive. Kids who are aggressive on the spectrum tend to be more abused than those who are not .

Making Election Day a federal holiday in the United States could increase voter turnout by providing citizens with more time to vote without work conflicts. In the 2020 election, 13.1% of registered voters who didn’t vote cited being too busy or having scheduling conflicts as the reason. Additionally, such a holiday would celebrate democracy, turning voting into a nationwide event. This approach aligns with practices in other countries and has significant public support; a Pew Research Center survey found that nearly 80% of Democrats and nearly 70% of Republicans favor making Election Day a federal holiday.
Many teenagers, like myself, are politically educated and want a say in who rules our country. If the voting age is lowered, it means that younger voices would be heard, it would promote more voting, and possibly encourage more teens to educate themselves politically to prepare. Sixteen year olds should be allowed to vote and stand for what they believe in.
When we had a warming shelter at church I've gotten to really know some of these guys. I know their stories. They want nothing more than to be able to be productive citizens, but once you're homeless it's hard to get back up. Your documents get lost or stolen, hard to save money, basic human care can't be attained and hope begins to get lost. We as people need to have compassion. We are all one situation away from being out there with them. Loss of job, mental health emergency, or even a health emergency. It's time we give a hand up to our brothers and sisters.
My brother was homeless when he overdosed on fentanyl at the age of 39 in 2022. I'm passionate about this shelter being established. Every community needs one. It hurts me to see people on the streets with no resource provided by the community. I don't know how there is no shelter in Alamogordo but they desperately need one. Thank you for this opportunity to better our community.
