Thread-Previously I highlighted #COVID19 leadership of many Black Mayors & BW in US Congress. Today I want to highlight the great work being done by local/state #BlackElecteds. Give someone (or yourself) a shot out with an example of their #coronavirus efforts & I'll add it ⬇️ 1/
. @jamooreforsc15 has rolled up sleeves with his efforts to show appreciation to essential workers & those on the frontlines. He has also convened experts for virtual townhalls to spread #COVID19 awareness. Thank you for your leadership! #BlackElecteds 2/

Sidebar: Y'all...I ALREADY did a thread on Mayors. This thread is for Black local and state elected officials. US Congress (House/Senate) is a federal position. I'm not adding mayors or US Congressional officials to this thread. https://twitter.com/blackwomenviews/status/1248332629348409347?s=19
. @leslieherod successfully advocated for Colorado to track and release racial data on #COVID19. Thank you for your leadership! #BlackElecteds 3/
Before Rep @EdwardTedJames was in the battle of his life against #coronavirus, he was leading on issues such as helping people obtain SNAP benefits and raising money for a #COVID19 bail fund. Thank God he has recovered and is back to work! Thank you for your leadership! 4/
. @HollyJMitchell is a leader in CA on intersectional policymaking with her advocacy in criminal justice, addressing racial disparities in the impact of #COVID19 & funding for DACA recipients. She even secured 1000s of masks for childcare workers.
Thank you for your leadership.5/
