When your Republican Congressperson says they support veterans, remind them of the facts: our veterans are not receiving the care they've earned because the GOP has cut every program veterans need. The GOP has broken the promise our country made to those who signed up to serve.

Shocking decision. From Sotomayor: "When the Executive publicly announces its intent to break the law . . . it is the Judiciary’s duty to check that lawlessness."
We'll add: "When GOP Reps refuse to protect Congressionally approved funds, it's our duty to check them"

A federal judge had ruled that the Trump administration is seeking to "effectively dismantle" the department without necessary approval from Congress.

To be clear: this is Congressionally appropriated funding that the Executive Branch is legally bound to administer. But the four feckless GOP Minnesota Reps are not willing to stand up to POTUS and do their actual jobs.

Not to be lost in the chaos of the Big Ugly Bill, Trump’s Education Department is withholding $6.8 billion in Congressionally appropriated funding for K–12 schools. But our Republican Representatives are not willing to stand up to him.

We can only hope that every County Commissioner was brave enough to stand up to federal government. This letter signed by all Olmsted County Commissioners (home to Mayo Clinic) is how you serve your constituents.✍🏼Homework assignment: ask your county commissioner to do the same

Republicans will do anything to help rich donors get richer.
All while hurting the rest of us.
The House will likely get a chance to vote on this bill next week.
Let them know how you feel about the Big Ugly Bill before it's too late!

Lost jobs and devastating farm impacts. More expensive groceries. Empty ports and soon-to-be empty shelves. Retirement savings gone.
In just 100 days the Republican wrecking ball has destroyed our economy and put millions of families at risk.
And none of this was necessary.

This is a coordinated Republican effort to hurt families. And let's be honest, they know it will push women out of the workforce because once long-term care homes are closed, someone will need to stay home to care for those who've lost their services.

Great advice from MN-04 Representative Betty McCollum on documenting what we all see happening.

The DNC needs a 10-year investment strategy in the American South. We can’t just write off red states—we’ve got to invest now so we can flip them in the future.
