🚨 Everyone needs to call their Dem Senator right now. They are starting to cave.
Tell them:
1. Vote NO on Cloture
AND
2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill.
Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that and they know it.
TODAY is the showdown.

This Is No Time for the Democrats to Hang Back
Some counsel the Democrats to just wait and let the GOP immolate itself. This is horrible advice. Here are some better ideas.

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.
We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

With so much abject capitulation to Trump by rich, scared men, it’s affirming and a high honor to highlight when women have stood up firmly against him this week. My write-up on three such women: https://buff.ly/4avog60

Facebook suppressed promotion of political content during a Democratic administration and is restoring it for a Republican one
