I am a principal author of this Budget Advocacy Toolkit, which was official launched today, June 23, in Dublin at the #WCTC2025. 🥳
A landmark moment at #WCTC2025: we just launched a powerful new tool to accelerate the fight against tobacco—everywhere.

The Budget Advocacy Toolkit for Tobacco Control is the first global resource of its kind, to help advocates secure national funding for life-saving tobacco control programs.

Democrats hold the line. Do NOT agree to fund DOGE.

BREAKING: The U.S. House just passed a bill that could devastate nonprofits, chill free speech, and hand Trump unchecked power.

Sign on to stand w/ the #BleedingDisorders Community on Capitol Hill: Real Cost of #Healthcare Cuts. Proposed cuts could have devastating consequences for our community: Loss of #Medicaid coverage; Higher insurance premiums; Increased financial hardship.

Call your Rep. to Protect Medicaid! 1/3 of the #bleedingdisorders #hemophilia community is insured by Medicaid. Proposals to cut or restrict Medicaid threaten to leave many without the coverage they depend on to stay healthy & avoid life-threatening complications.

Congress needs pushback about SNAP (food stamps) & Medicaid cuts. They are expected to vote today!

They seek to cut $2 trillion from programs for $4.5 trillion in tax breaks. House wants to cut $880 billion from Medicaid & $230 billion from SNAP to give $1.1 trillion in tax breaks to the 1%.
No cuts! No way. No how! Oppose the Budget Resolution and Reconciliation and its assault on human needs programs
