It all would have been much easier if, as would have happened if we were remotely a serious country, it all ended with the Access Hollywood interview.

Our calls & outrage are working! Sen Kaine, Rosen, Shaneen & Hassan said if they hear from more of their constituents, they could change their votes from a yes to a no. Rs may not be voting for this bill also, so call your R senators too. Keep the phone calls coming bc it’s working! 202-224-3121

I get why people are upset about SCOTUS putting a temp freeze on SNAP funding. But Justice Ketanji Brown’s move is more strategic than it sounds—she said the 1st Circuit Court should rule first. Trump skipped that step and went straight to SCOTUS. See article for full context….1

More amazing news!

In a historic move, New Mexico just became the first state in America to guarantee free, universal child care for all residents. 🩵

Families win, kids thrive, and the economy grows.

Now let’s get the entire U.S. to follow suit.

Real talk—your rights are literally on the line. The PA Supreme Court decides:
🗳️ Fair elections
💪 Worker protections
💊 Abortion access
📬 Mail-in voting
Three justices are up for retention—lose one, and we risk it all.
Vote YES Nov 4.

So far polling looks good & ballots received look good for Prop 50 to pass here in CA but everyone needs to vote YES & get your ballots in asap! Don’t become complacent. We need as many YES votes as possible!

My YES vote was dropped in a dropbox & has been counted. Let’s do this!
