They voted for this MAGA Budget the day after Gov. Josh Stein sent them an explanation of the ways it would hurt NC's Medicaid, SNAP, & growing clean energy economy. They knew exactly what they were voting for. #ncpol #big-ugly-bill #medicaid #northcarolina
🧵 Did your Representative vote for the Medicaid cuts in the MAGA Budget? Take a look at how many people in your district use Medicaid. Putting billionaires over the people you're supposed to represent is shameful. #ncpol #biguglybill #medicaid

My year with AmeriCorps was crucial to my journey out of the bubble I grew up in and into the person I am today. The people and places I was surrounded by were priceless. My heart goes out to the over 2,000 corps members who were terminated via email yesterday by DOGE and to the people & communities

This guy is running youtube ads aimed at seniors right now, trying to convince them that he's a champion of their healthcare. Even for the Senate, he's impressively two-faced. #ncpol #timetotossTillis #medicaid
Thom Tillis is working hard right now. Not at solving any problems facing North Carolinians, don't be silly. He's working hard to distance himself from his past. But NC remembers and we'll remember it when we step into the voting booth. #ncpol #timetotossTillis #medicaid

1M+ Americans receiving medical treatment for addiction to fentanyl & other opioids could be effected by the Medicaid cuts Trump's budget would require.

Rumeysa Ozturk, a grad student studying the effects of digital media on child development had her visa canceled and was snatched off the street by masked ICE agents because she wrote an op-ed calling for her school to divest from Israel & recognize the genocide. Her lawyer doesn't know where she is.

Currently, for anyone 21+ to carry a concealed handgun in NC they have to take a course on firearm safety & self-defense laws and then pass an accuracy test. Republican lawmakers now want to remove those basic requirements and lower the age to 18. #ncpol ncnewsline.com/2025/02/07/thr…

Not everyone can lead a Know Your Rights training, but there are things we can all do to spread knowledge and show solidarity with our immigrant neighbors. Something as simple as passing out 4th Amendment cards like these that advocates are distributing in Charlotte communities. #NC #immigrantsofNC
