I thought I was an Independent Progressive until this last election.
I realize I am truly an Independent Conservative with Progressive views/values as far as Family, Faith and Education.
I do not like the rhetoric they are trying to push on our kids. It’s some real evil lurking .

We don’t live nowhere near New Mexico for the wind to be getting us. Don’t believe that. We need to be in prayer. 🤲🏾

Thats what I heard from Elohim

2 CHRONICLES 7:14
KJV
If My people, who are called by My name, shall humble themselves and pray, and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

I went dark for a purpose 🤫and today I’m back to congratulate my girl Therese Boyle for winning the election in the ninth, we are built different, obviously. My colleagues and I met today for a dinner post election over here in the 9th. We truly believe in coalition and community building.

✨ I am incredibly honored to receive the endorsement of Rev. Jesse Jackson! 🙌 My grandfather grew up in the South during segregation, and I know he would be so proud to see this moment if he were alive. His experiences fuel my passion for fighting civil rights and social justice today.

I’ve authored original legislation for the Medical Civil Rights Act in partnership with Ms. Vikki Willis, the mother of Alteriq Pleasant, a young man tragically slain by the Chicago Police Department. Together, we are working towards justice and change! 💪❤️

🚨 PSA ALERT 🚨

📬 If you've received a mailer in your mailbox recently, I want to clear the air.

❌ That mailer did NOT come from me. My official PAC name is Friends FOR Lanetta Thomas, not "Friends OF Lanetta Thomas."

💌 I do not endorse or approve the messages in those mailers. I don't run smear campaigns.

🚫 I am NOT a Democrat—I am an Independent Progressive.

👦🏽👧🏾 My focus has always been about the kids. I'm not a politician, just someone committed to our children's future. 🌟

🙏🏽 I DO NOT support negative messaging about my opponents—we're all working for the same cause: the children.

📲 If you received any mail or text misrepresenting me, I apologize. I’m here for truth and transparency! 💙

Thank you for your support and understanding! ✨

Celebrate Diversity on Indigenous Peoples’ Day 🌍✨

Today, I honor my great-great-grandfather Ben Finley, a proud man of the Choctaw tribe, and all of my ancestors who have paved the way for me. 🪶 My heritage is a blend of strength and resilience that comes from my Choctaw, Chickasaw, Cherokee roots of the Southeast, and my Taino family from Puerto Rico. 🌿🇵🇷 I also celebrate my French Creole family of Louisiana, who carry the legacy of culture, art, and spirit in every step I take. 🎨✨

On this day, we recognize the rich histories, cultures, and contributions of Indigenous peoples, whose stories continue to shape the world around us. 🌟 Let’s celebrate the diversity that makes our communities strong. 🤝💫
