People (like me) who are applying for Pell grants for their kids don't have money for lawsuits.

Most people don’t but you can complain to your AG ( I don’t know if mine will do 💩-I’m in Okla. I hope you’re in a blue state. I don’t have all the answers -without a coherent front by our party -a lot of folks just spit balling now.

Honey, I feel ya. Fucking Texas. 🙄 And it kills me a little extra that a place of such outstanding natural beauty is held hostage to that bullshit. If the people there had a clear idea of all of this, it would have gone very differently, because y'all are gonna get screwed but hard. I'm so sorry. 💞

Most people don't realize that WV was blue until about 2000. I mean HEAVILY blue. So I kind of get why they gave up on getting any help from Democrats. 🥹

I do feel sorry for a lot of them. WV has been exploited for centuries by rich corporations. There were so few jobs, except coal mining, and the local government has been an oligarchy since long before the federal gov became one. So many people in poverty and without access to education 🥹
