I’m enrolled in Georgia Access — Georgia’s marketplace. Not only is my premium going up 39%, my out of pocket maximum is rising from $9,200 to $10,450. 🏥

If only Republican elected officials would prioritize healthcare reform instead of culture wars & kidnapping people off the streets.

There are a lot of rumors of ICE escalation in the Atlanta area this week. While we can’t verify any, we know folks are scared and it’s ALWAYS a good idea to be prepared!

GLAHR is one of Georgia’s strongest immigrant advocacy organizations. Take a minute to put their hotline number in your phone.

Today, Maine State Auditor Matt Dunlap announced his campaign for Maine’s 2nd Congressional District because right now, Mainers are stuck with skyrocketing health care costs, a government shutdown, and a broken Congress. #ME02

AOC: "On this point of tax on tips, as one of the only people in this body who has lived off of tips, I want to tell you a little bit about the scam ... the cap on that is $25,000 while you're jacking up taxes on people who make less than $50,000 across the US ... while kicking them off the ACA."

The GOP tax cut and spending bill passed by the Senate this week is expected to add trillions of dollars to the federal debt over the next decade. The savings would mostly go to top earners.

It took them 8 days to build a concentration camp in Florida. The government can work, and fast, when they want to. We have the right the demand better. Enough of the incremental crumbs! Fund #CommunityOverCorporations

This bill passes, people will die. Children will go even more hungry than before. This isn’t about stats or parties, it’s about people’s lives. Call your senators to VOTE NO.

Let this sink in.

Even the Los Angeles Police Chief, Jim McDonnell, made it clear: the people protesting immigration raids were not the ones causing violence.

During a Sunday evening press conference, McDonnell condemned the violence as “disgusting”
