Punishing tariffs. Out of control corruption. Political chaos in Washington.
No wonder companies are hesitant about hiring.

A milestone moment for Pennsylvania and for democracy: Erica Deuso is elected mayor of Downingtown, becoming the state’s first openly-trans mayor. At PA Megaphone we know what grassroots engagement and strong organizing can do — let’s keep the momentum going! 💪

Last night, 21 of Carolina Forward's 28 endorsees for municipal office won their elections across North Carolina!
More recaps to come on the blog. But last night, there was a loud and clear shout for political change all across our nation. Let's be a part of it.

Congratulations, Blue Virginia. And our #leanleftvt volunteers helped make this happen with phone calls, donations. And we met amazing (and young) organizers along the way.
And, as an added bonus, @statenavigate.org is now projecting Dems with 62 seats (out of 100) in the VA House of Delegates (even more amazing when you consider that Dems had only 34 seats heading in to the 2017 elections). Wow, what a night! bluevirginia.us/2025/11/live...

Welch: "This has nothing to do with the shutdown. The law requires and the funds are available to continue SNAP right now without any interruption. So that is a decision the president is making on his own to allow people to go hungry."

Support for abortion rights are effectively a 60/40 issue in North Carolina. A consistent majority of voters support reproductive freedom, and only a tiny, fringe minority of hardcore anti-choice activists want to ban it.

This is one of the many reasons #leanleftvt is fighting to help NC citizens get to the polls and reverse this madness.
Just since February, over 300 North Carolina homeowners across Western NC have applied for FEMA Hazard Mitigation Grants to help rebuild their homes.
None - zero - have been approved.
Neither the White House nor WNC's Republican Congressman Chuck Edwards will even comment on it.
What's going on?
