CALL TO ACTION - Call your MOC and demand they pass ACA subsidies. No one should have to choose between healthcare and food, or healthcare and housing. 202-224-3121. One number reaches all of Congress.
MIKE JOHNSON: Here's the false narrative -- Democrats are pretending as though this affects everybody in the country. It affects 7% of Americans, this extended subsidy
CNBC: But we are talking 22 to 24 million Americans
JOHNSON: We're going to help 100% of Americans reduce their premiums

"There are too many cliffs that our young people are prone to falling off...They leave the school setting, they graduate...At 18, they fall off with certain benefits, or at 21 or 24. Because of the way our resources and systems are set up, young people fall through the gaps.” 👇🏾

LA Mayor Karen Bass: 'We know that Los Angeles is the test case. And we will stand strong, and we do so because the people snatched off city streets and chased through parking lots are our neighbors, our family members, and they are Angelenos.'

Commentary: Bass defends her turf: 'Let me be clear: I won't be intimidated' by Trump
'Where are the hardened criminals?' Bass asks. 'They’re chasing them through parking lots at Home Depot? They’re washing cars? I don’t think so.'

No "riots", no "chaos" in Los Angeles. See the colors on the map? ALL of that is City of Los Angeles. See that tiny ⭕? That is Downtown LA. The 6/8 ruckus was only a few blocks inside that tiny ⭕. The rest of LA is business as usual. No troops needed. #LosAngeles #NoKings #BeautifulDayinLA #LAToday

It began in 2020 as a political statement using hashtags like #ObamaDayJune14.
In 2025, it coincides with 47's Flag Day parade, while activists plan 1,800 protests nationwide.

My grandmother was a young Jewish girl in Poland during WWII and she lived because a white christian family took her in and hid her for the entire war. The rest of her family didn't survive. She survived because a few people chose to do the right thing instead of following unjust laws.
My grandmother was a young pregnant Jewish woman alone on a train in Poland during WWII when a German soldier told her to get off at the next stop because there wouldn't be any soldiers waiting at the station. She survived because, in that moment, a soldier chose the right thing over obeying orders.
