40M people on SNAP isn’t “lazy,” it’s proof wages don’t cover basics. Most recipients already work. Fraud is under 3%. Undocumented immigrants have never qualified. Stop blaming culture… start blaming greed.

While eyes are on the shutdown, the Senate passed the NDAA with anti-trans and anti-DEI. It bans trans athletes and blocks gender-affirming care. Once it’s law, expect it to show up in civilian funding bills. Test it in the military, normalize it everywhere.

1. Last night, 26 Senate Dems helped pass a NDAA containing a military trans sports and surgery ban and dropped demands for protections against US troop deployments in the bill.
It is the latest in the national fight over must-pass bills during the shutdown.

26 Senate Democrats Help Pass Military NDAA Containing Trans Sports, Surgery Ban, No Protection For US Troop Deployments
The bill passed by a wide margin in the Senate and will be the starting point for negotiations with the House, which contain more severe anti-trans riders.

1. Today, 200,000 marched in Budapest Pride in defiance of a ban by Orbán's far-right government.
It was led by the city's mayor Gergely Karácsony, who got around the law by making it an "official city gathering."
He was warned of arrest.
They marched anyway.

NPR reports that immigrants were already in overcrowded, under managed facilities. One man in Florida has asked to be deported due to such poor conditions. When he asked the judge what happens if he ends up a third country. The judge said, "you can email me." 😡
EXCLUSIVE: The memo obtained by NPR says troops would be used in activities, including in "night operations and rural interdiction," as well as "guard duty and riot control" inside detention facilities.

He should be raising his daughter, living his life.

One more step toward enacting some critical legal protections for trans Coloradans.
Good news! After a vote late last night, the Kelly Loving Act (HB25-1312) is on its way to the governor’s desk for signature. This is the last step before the bill becomes law. This bill is an example of people-powered legislation that centers community voices.
