My local rural school district is set to lose over $700,000 a year under the new school funding formula, while the Governor is funding private religious schools with taxpayer vouchers.

What a scam…

Have seen zero news about how the BBB lets ACA premium subsidies expire at the end of 2025.

The high deductible bronze plan for me and my son would be $1350 a month without those subsidies (it’s $176 month now). An increase of $14,089 per year.

I think people will forgo health insurance.

Why is this story not in an American paper

Let’s tell more stories of how responsible governance can benefit more people and give them increased opportunities, instead of the supposed inevitably of the oligarchs having everything there is

New Mexico made childcare free. It lifted 120,000 people above the poverty line
The state, which has long ranked worst in the US for child wellbeing, became the first and only in the country to offer free childcare to a majority of families

My Facebook DMs are full of fans like Chris Elliot. Know what I do when I get a message like this? I spend the time to track them down and then send the message to their mothers and sisters and daughters.

If you’ve got the energy to send this shit to me, I’ve got the energy to out you.

Why did Trump repeat Russian propaganda and lie about this? Why would he claim that a Ukrainian army in Kursk could only be saved from annihilation if Putin benevolently agreed to Trump’s request not to do so? Why is the US President deceiving Americans with Russian lies?

Now Oklahoma schools may "teach" the lie that the 2020 election didn't elect Joe Biden. That's not teaching, it's "indoctrination" and it's an abdication of duty.

The Trump administration has deported a 10-year-old girl to Mexico who is a US citizen and is recovering from brain cancer.

Her family was on their way to an emergency medical checkup when they were detained.

We had to collect 180K signatures to put proposition A on the ballot to increase minimum wage to $13.75 and guarantee sick pay for Missourians. The measure won.

Just now, the Missouri House voted to overturn our will. Without signatures…with a vote. They do the bidding of the wealthy.

My dad has Parkinson’s and Medicaid allows him to have what he needs and spend time with family.

This isn't just a budget cut, it's a death sentence for thousands of Americans...

I guess it’s outrageous that the American people want to know who is inside the government seeking to dismantle it and gain access to their data and a host of other sensitive info. We aren’t allowed to know who they are? Why not?

Elon’s response to a post simply naming the 6 people he has working for him inside our government. Apparently, it is a crime for the American people to know who they are.

I have and will continue to. But you know why I say it here ? Because @bsky.app is 30m strong and growing quickly. The collective wisdom and influence of users here is far greater than any individual democrat.

I can't say it enough. Bluesky can be the influence that can counter RW media.
No offense, Mark, but you have influence and power most of us don’t. Why don’t you speak up to those in DC you have connections with? Actions speak louder than words as you well know.

Yesterday School Chief Ryan Walter’s said public school teachers were responsible for domestic terrorism.

In my view he is the domestic terrorist putting lives of teachers at risk.

If you are a teacher please drop a note below. Let’s get you the thanks you deserve.
