I just checked the count and I can barely believe how many people are standing with us but we need to hit two hundred and fifty before I can even think about sending this to the Mayor because he really needs to see a huge crowd backing this up. Please just tell two people you know about this right now because my heart is pounding thinking about how we are almost there and we truly cannot let this momentum die down before we get their attention.

I really thought this might just float into the void without anyone noticing but the momentum is suddenly so real and it is honestly overwhelming to see so many of you agreeing that they belong on that stage. My coffee is cold and I am just staring at these notifications because it feels like people are finally listening to what happened that day and acknowledging the responders correctly.

I keep staring at the signature count because we are just shy of a hundred and it feels like we need this big round number to actually get someone at City Hall to pick up the phone. Please just send this to a few people you know because it feels wrong sitting here waiting while the ceremony plans aren't changing yet.
