FACT: USAID funded projects in 120 countries - fighting epidemics, educating children, providing clean water, supporting life saving work.
Now nurses laid off, clinics closed in 25 countries where 2/3 of all child deaths occur.
All because of Trump’s inflated ego.

Most immigrants Trump targets have been here 10+ years, paying taxes, raising families, contributing to our communities.
Mass deportation would devastate our economy and tear apart the social fabric of America.

The other numbers I will also add to this are the lowest border crossing since summer 2020, and January is currently looking like it will end up with crossings equivalent to some of the lowest months Trump had in office.
As Trump gets ready to take office, here's the stats:
• Inflation: 2.9%
• Unemployment: 4.1%
• Mortgage rate: 7%
• National debt: $36.2 trillion
• Global views of U.S.: 54% favorable
• U.S. satisfaction: 19%
• Freedom index: 83/100

Trump made big promises during the campaign, but he's already walking them back. Seems like one of the only things he's really committed to doing is giving massive tax breaks to his billionaire pals.
Trump Is Walking Back His Biggest Campaign Promises Before Taking Office
From lowering the costs of groceries to ending the war in Ukraine "in 24 hours," the president-elect is backpedaling on the things he said he would do.

The Laken Riley Act allows for the indefinite detention of any immigrant even SUSPECTED of theft.
It also enables cops to detain citizens who look like immigrants until they can prove their citizenship.
Senate Dems need to say #NoRacialProfilingLaws and vote against this bill.
