The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

A mom in Houston reported her 15-year-old son with autism missing. She spent 6 days terrified, searching for him. The whole time, Houston police knew exactly where he was since they helped ICE place him in a refugee facility.

This is beyond cruel.

I think of the International Brigades, formed out of ordinary people from around the world to save Spain from fascism

The Sumud Flotilla is also made up of ordinary people, but instead of guns they come with baby formula

This is the great threat to the fascists of our time

While we warn that DT as a fascist will never be appeased and will always demand more, white Christian nationalists are not being appeased by DT’s concessions to them and are constantly and violently demanding more.

And if one of your senators signed, send them your thanks.
Call your senators about this.

No, Schiff and Padilla were never going to sign this resolution, but seven senators is more than I would’ve expected a year ago and that means pressure works.

So call your senators, because it takes 3 minutes total and it’s more effective than posting about it.
