A scoop that I’m not happy to report:

CBS News has gutted its climate change reporting team, one of the best in the business, and one of the only ones on cable news that consistently called out fossil fuels as the main source of climate pollution.

House GOP is holding a hearing on their tax bill at 1:00 AM because they don't want us to know about their scheme to strip 13.7 million people of health coverage & they think no one will stay awake for it.

I’ll be there, testifying & offering amendments to protect our families.

Mass protests across America get serious coverage in the UK, France, Germany and Scandinavia... but American newspapers and broadcast media are curiously silent about them, or seek to minimize them as "a few thousand demonstrators." www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
Thousands take to streets across US to protest Trump and Musk policies

I have a representative, Nick Lolota, who refuses to hold a town hall and thinks those that disagree with him are to be ignored. Thank you @raskin.house.gov for holding this town hall. #nycd01 #repnicklolota
We are thrilled to announce that @raskin.house.gov is coming to #LongIsland for our We the People Town Hall on May 3rd at the Patchogue Theatre!
Make your reservation ASAP this event is sure to sell out ⭐️

Crucial point made here — we should learn from others rather than imagine that everything is new and therefore shocking and impossible to resist.

🙌🏼 I’m not sure who had the amazing idea to invite this constitutional lawyer to a senate hearing that intended to prove Biden colluded with Meta to censor conservatives, but she took the opportunity to speak truth to power ✊🏼 on the hypocrite 👑 KING OF FREE SPEECH, Donald Trump, himself. 👏🏼 Brava!!

People are disappearing… today… right now.

In the very state you live in, if not the very community, there are people who quite recently were there but no longer are—and not because they chose to leave.

The US spends almost twice as much per capita on health care as any other nation. Yet 85 million Americans are uninsured or under-insured and 68,000 die each year because they can’t afford a doctor.

Health care must be a human right, not a privilege. We need Medicare for All.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk are gutting the CFPB, giving big corporations a free pass to rip you off.

We need state-level consumer protections now more than ever, and @newyorkstateag.bsky.social is stepping up.

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up.

Tomorrow is the cloture vote.

KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️

Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill.

Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.
🚨 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.

Already done this yesterday. She is not listening. We need more New York folk to contact her office.
Folks, message Gillibrand. Don’t let republicans scare her.

Republicans have majority of both houses and executive.

It’s all on them if the government shuts down.

If we can "avoid a government shutdown" by voting for this CR, then why is the entire Department of Education closed today? Why is USAID closed? Why are hundreds of billions in grant contracts frozen?

We are already in the shutdown. And your votes DON'T stop it. In fact, they allow it to expand.
