Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing $880 BILLION in Medicaid, $230 SNAP, etc.

So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.
Blow up Republican Congressional leader phones - RAISE SOME CAIN!

Don’t just say DEI as if it’s a bad word. Spell it out.

Say diversity, which is the lifeblood of American society & culture & innovation.

Say equity, which a just society should pursue.

Say inclusion, because decent people believe in increasing belonging, not isolating people who are different.

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been!

with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.
