The lies. Rudy Giuliani told about me and my mommy after the 2020 presidential election have changed our lives. And the past few years has been devastating. The flame that Giuliani lit with those lies and passed to so many others to keep that flame blazing, changed every aspect of our lives, our homes, our family, our work, our sense of safety, our mental health and we’re still working to rebuild as we move forward and continue to seek justice. Our greatest wish is that no one, no election worker or voter or school board member or anyone else ever experiences anything like what we went through? I want people to understand this money will never solve all of my problems. I can never move back into the house that I called home. I will always have to be careful about where I go and who I choose to share my name with. I miss my home, I miss my neighbors and I missed my name.
