3/23/19 discussion about addressing sex work and misinformation

Here is the link to my March 23, 2019, Twitter thread, which was a kind of open letter to Colorado State Representatives Leslie Herod and Alex Valdez about ideas for sex work decriminalization and addressing sex trafficking misinformation at Denver International Airport.

In all fairness to Representative Valdez, he did tell me to email him. I can't remember whether I emailed him, but I honestly think I did not. Or, if I did, I don't think I followed up after my first email.

There's really no excuse if ended up not following up on this action.

But what I would say is, I was literally going without food at the time. I was probably more depressed than I'd ever been in my life. I was trying to find some kind of helping hand. And I'm not sure why, but I didn't feel like whatever sort of encouragement I was receiving from Representative Valdez -- and I demonstrably was receiving encouragement -- was going to help me get to whatever sort of stability I was hoping to get to.

Thank you or reading. Please enjoy.

3/21/18 review of rally for Alex Valdez

Here is the link to my Twitter thread review of a March, 2018, rally for Alex Valdez during his race for Colorado's State House District 5 seat.

The thread gives some background on Valdez. It discusses his thought process on political issues, his orientation around freedom, his commitment to renewable energy, his stance on gun violence, and his ideas on sustainable development. The thread discusses some good points State Representative Leslie Herod gave about Valdez. And it mentions some other great folks who attended and spoke at the rally.

Valdez did win this race and is currently my state representative. He's done a great job.

The tweets in some of my threads have been twisted out of chronological order by Twitter's platform. This thread's coherency is slightly affected. My apologies.
