Sharing a fundraiser that my neighbors have done an incredible job organizing in support of families in Gaza they are in direct contact with. Please share widely! Even when aid is allowed back in to the strip, prices will still be astronomical.

Netanyahu has shattered the ceasefire agreement, indiscriminately killing hundreds of people in Gaza and putting the lives of the remaining hostages at risk. This is after not allowing any food, water, aid, or fuel into Gaza in two weeks.

Arms embargo NOW.

DC's budget is currently operating on a contingency. We will abruptly hit a spending wall later this spring unless this bill passes.

We want the House to bring it to the floor for a vote on Monday, the first day they are back in session. punchbowl.news/article/hous...
House likely to take up D.C. budget fix
The House Republican leadership is likely to take up a Senate-passed provision to allow Washington, D.C., to have flexibility with its FY2025 budget.

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

The bloated Department of Defense spends more money than any other government agency. So where is Elon Musk and DOGE?

I will believe members of Congress are serious about government corruption when they pass bills to ban themselves from trading stocks and overturn Citezens United.

Everything else is to make people *feel* like they’re addressing corruption.

I feel like I'm going insane every time I see a media story about DOGE that doesn't also mention the fact that the Government Accountability Office exists and performs the exact function that DOGE pretends to, only in a credibly constitutional, non-partisan, and conflict-of-interest-free manner

For what it's worth, this 50501 movement looks entirely AI generated. Like if you asked ChatGPT to plan a protest. Fingers crossed everyone is safe today.
‼️DC UPDATE‼️
We will meet at the US Capitol Building at noon! We officially have a permit for our peaceful protest!
