Bravo to Aurora, CO.👇
Aurora, Colorado, saw a political shift as progressive candidates won city council seats, ousting conservative incumbents who focused on anti-immigrant rhetoric.
The election results reflect a broader national trend of Democratic gains.

Attacking a federal district judge as an “activist” for issuing a lawful ruling is an assault on judicial independence. A democracy cannot function when executive agencies denigrate judges for doing their jobs.

In September, federal agents swarmed a Hyundai manufacturing site, detaining more than 500 workers, including more than 300 from South Korea.
Now, nearly 200 detainees are preparing to sue ICE, alleging human rights violations and unlawful arrest.

If, according to Trump, the government doesn’t have the tariff money available to refund all of it if he loses the lawsuit before SCOTUS, how can he be talking about giving away trillions in $2,000 checks?

My family has been without half our income for 40 days. It has been.. very hard.
We are willing to feel that pain so people can have health care next year, or to undo these illegal recissions.
We are not willing to have been put through this for NOTHING.

I'm sorry and disappointed that my retiring Senator, Dick Durbin, voted yes.
Eight Democratic senators — Durbin, Hassan, King, Cortez Masto, Kaine, Shaheen, Rosen, and Fetterman — have joined 52 Republicans in a procedural vote to reopen the government without a guaranteed extension of health care subsidies.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.
The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.
People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.
And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

A cataclysmic failure it is.👇
Dems backed Trump into a corner where he’s advocating for starving Americans and hemorrhaging support. If they vote to let him off the hook in exchange for nothing it’s a cataclysmic failure. I know people are in pain but insulating Republicans from political consequences is not the answer.

Oh yes, we the people remember. But apparently the Senate Dems do not. 👇
A reminder - last March, republicans promised to restore $1.1B in funding to DC in exchange for funding the government, and Mike Johnson never took it up in the House.

The original Dem demands were:
1) Permanent ACA subsidies
2) Medicaid funding restored
3) No more blank checks for the regime (rescission)
They dropped Medicaid immediately. Went silent on rescission. Cut back to 1 year of subsidies on Friday. And surrendered today.
