One of the most common questions we get is, “I’m in a deep red district/rural area with little party infrastructure — what can I do?” Our Rural and Red Caucus calls are a great place to find the answers. RSVP to join grassroots leaders from rural areas and GOP-dominated districts and states. 👇

If you have a GOP Rep who is hiding, you can have a little fun while advertising to his constituents that he's a coward!
We had a successful Crappy Fitzpatrick's Day event at the Congressman's office today!

Over a hundred PA-01 volunteers showed up to let Brian Fitzpatrick know - with holiday themed decor and limericks - how they feel about his inadequate representation, and his unwillingness to hold town halls.

The fact that these cuts were handled this way—wantonly and recklessly—tells us everything we need to know about the administration’s true goal: To broadcast a clear message to the world that we are now shrugging off any sense of obligation to the global poor.

If it is going to be so efficient, and there is a 80% decrease in payroll because these jackhole are firing everyone, then they must not need my tax money anymore, right?

Oh, also, no taxation without representation. I definitely do not feel represented on ANY government level. ✅

There is simply no legal architecture that would allow Musk, the richest man in the world, to remake the entire federal government without running afoul of criminal conflict of interest laws.
