1/ Republicans slashed $1 trillion from Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act to bankroll massive tax cuts for the wealthy—and now, millions of Americans are paying the price.

The results from Flint's Rx Kids program are extraordinary: healthier babies, more stable housing, reduced depression, and $6.2M saved in healthcare costs.
Direct cash to families works. We have the proof. Now let's scale it.

Thrilled to be moderating The Future of Equal Opportunity with @eop.aspeninstitute.org next week.
I’ll be in conversation with luminaries like @staceyabrams.com , @kotagaleeoc.bsky.social , and @profmpastor.bsky.social to talk about the attacks on equity and how we can turn the tide around.

1/ More than half of young Americans use social media to make sense of the economy and the world. And the right is winning the race to reach them: they’ve built huge media channels, from The Daily Wire to PragerU, that attract young audiences.

1/ How We're Growing the Guaranteed Income Movement - Even When It's Hard

1/ A Federal Reserve study just confirmed what millions of Americans already know: the system is rigged against working people. Corporate profits DOUBLED to $4 trillion since 2010, while labor's share of national income fell, according to Fed economist Ricardo Marto.

A tale of two families: One loses $1,640/month in childcare. The other gains $73K/year in tax cuts. Republicans' tax proposals gut support for working families, while handing breaks to the wealthiest Americans.
@calbudgetcenter.org's new report makes the stakes painfully clear.

So now Elon says he wants to send you cash through a DOGE Dividend?
Trust me, there is no bigger fan of direct cash than me. But this is a scam. (1/5)
