Out of all the products I produced as an @AgentschangeEJ fellow this essay was the most challenging and cathartic. Thanks Brian, and @Pau_Erre for pushing me out of my comfort zone and helping me edit what I think is a pretty good essay 🤓 – at Tucson, AZ
A Supreme Court ruling against the Navajo Nation is the latest blow to the tribe in a long-standing fight for water. @vmjoegaddy @AgentschangeEJ

(2 of 2)AZ Democrats should stand together against this special interest giveaway and I urge @GovernorHobbs to veto it if it gets to her desk. Water policy should be done in an open bipartisan manner as it always has been. Too important not to do it right! #vetoHB1172
Leaving the UA was a tough decision, but taking the job as Community Conservation Director of Watershed Management Group and getting to “work” at events like this makes me genuinely happy! #TikTok tiktok.com/t/ZTLVEXNoX/ #thisistucson @whatsuptucson @cityoftucson – at Tucson, AZ

Thank you @vmjoegaddy for this amazing piece. You are right… “water is sacred, and access will never be equal.” We need to do better

Important new study led by @blaxicologist highlighting the intersection of #farmworker occupation, #immigrant status, and environmental #pesticide exposure! Findings show evidence of environmental disparities to pay attention to for policy and intervention on pesticide exposures.

Settler researchers, when an Indigenous person provides u feedback on ways of working with our communities, do not respond with, “I’ve been working with Indigenous communities for ‘x’ years and in my experience …..” Times have changed my friends. This is not your space to lead.

Considering that almost 60% of all farmers and ranchers in AZ are Native American, and AZ has the largest concentration of tribal farms throughout the country, I'm surprised there is no tribal faculty or staff on the Presidential Ag board 🤔
Pleased to announce @UArizona’s Presidential Advisory Commission on the Future of Agriculture and Food Production in a Drying Climate, chaired by @PBrierley. It will develop solutions for our state and other arid regions, central to our land-grant mission. bit.ly/3W2BNJT
