THIS is what courage looks like.Today, striking farmworkers bravely stood in front of cameras, the community, and the press, risking their jobs, safety, and future. To speak the truth. About the stolen wages. About the years of being unheard.
This is a movement. And today was a turning point.

What’s outrageous is pretending this cruelty is necessary. What’s inappropriate is defending it while our communities suffer.
We don’t need more masked men in tactical gear, we need humanity.

When you jam your bill through overnight…
When you are forced to cancel town halls…
When you need to wear masks to hide your actions…
You know the people aren’t on your side—and now, you’ve lost us forever.
We will remember this day. We will remember your names. We will remember you as traitors.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.
This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.
It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Republicans must be held accountable for every single person turned away from life-saving healthcare, every hungry child, and every struggling family. We will not let them hide away from this disastrous scam.

The Conservative Attack on Empathy
Sometimes emotions are the voice of one’s conscience, and shouldn’t be ignored.

In classic Republican fashion—they've found a way to make their "Big Beautiful Bill" even worse.
More cuts to health care.
More money added to the debt.
More Americans suffer.

Get this: Republicans voted NO to protect Medicaid funding for addiction treatment.
If you’re battling addiction, Republicans are happy to throw you under the bus in order to give a billionaire another tax break.
It’s shameful.

Today, we remember Tamir Elijah Rice on what would have been his 23rd birthday.
He was only 12 when his life was taken by a #Cleveland police officer. His killing was one of many that sparked the #BLM Movement.

Masked and unmarked ICE agents (real or fake) are causing fear and chaos in our communities. California legislators have introduced the No Secret Police Act, which would prohibit law enforcement officers from hiding their identities during public operations. Urge your local leaders to act. 👇
