If just four Republicans are willing to stand up for the working families they represent and join @housedemocrats.bsky.social's discharge petition, we can force a vote on the House floor to protect Medicaid and food assistance programs like SNAP.

THIS is what we mean by showing up.

Reps Carter, Thompson, Pressley and Sen Markey, went to a detention center where Mahmoud Khalil & Rumeysa Ozturk are being held w/out due process.

They didn’t just stand up for their own constituents—they stood together for all because there’s power in numbers.

Jan Schakowsky, the incumbent in my race, will reportedly not seek re-election. So it seems like a good time to reintroduce myself —

Does no one remember the Swill Milk Scandal? 8000 babies died in New York State in one year. EIGHT THOUSAND BABIES.

They don't want us to learn history. Or science. Then it's easier to get away with cutting consumer protections to increase their profit margins by selling contaminated food.
Previous to the FDA, folks would put chalk and plaster of Paris in milk to make it appear white. They could also add formaldehyde to cover the smell and taste of spoiled milk.

This was at 1:20 PM in Northeast Portland on Friday, April 18. I wish I could convey to you more accurately the massive size of this armored vehicle. Noticed the SUV next to it and the giant lifted pickup truck two cars back.

PPB has jerked off to its highly militarized police fantasy for years.
