House Republicans just voted to rob 72 million Americans of their Medicaid coverage to give tax cuts to the rich. 😤

Give your House Reps a CALL BACK to let them know how you feel about their vote. 👉 5calls.org/issue/budget...

CLAIM: The House budget resolution (H Con Res 14) doesn't touch Medicaid.

FACT: The resolution directs the Energy & Commerce committee, which oversees Medicaid, to find $880 billion in cuts, and Republicans have openly called for spending less on Medicaid. Connect the dots.

🚨🚨 the House Budget Resolution is on very THIN ICE. Constituent pressure can absolutely block this thing!!

House Republicans flailing on their whip count and not having the votes to pass their big bills is a pleasant throwback to happier days of my youth (last year)

Quick FYI - HR 22 the SAVE Act that would disenfranchise millons, has NOT passed the House in the current legislative session. It has passed in previous sessions, but has not even reached a committee vote in this term. 👍🤓

We're hearing lots of reports of staticy or distorted calls when reaching represenatives, I think y'all are reaching the limits of the Capitol phone system 📞🔥

Here's one of the victim impact letters--from family members of a guy who died of a heroin overdose--submitted when Ross Ulbricht was sentenced.

This is who Trump pardoned, while claiming to care abt trafficking.

We think the world will always be how it is now. But I think we need to imagine a world in which there are too few migrants, and many more nations competing to attract them. This is the first in a series I'll be publishing about global migration. www.nytimes.com/2025/01/31/o...

Migration is central to our politics and our world, but nobody really understands it.
