This is going to hit married women who’ve changed their names especially hard. New level of open voter suppression, but following on attacks on voting rights for decades—closing voting centers, purging voters, etc.
Call your senators and say HELL NO

If the US government requires passports for you to practice your rights such as voting then passports should be provided for free to all and within a reasonable timeframe by said government.

Gutting this agency is illegal and will harm millions.

House Democrats are unified in our opposition to the largest Medicaid cut in American history.
We only need three Republicans to join us in order to stop it.

Today, Congressman Latimer joined me to announce a plan to keep Social Security services accessible in Westchester. With the closure of the White Plains Social Security Office, too many seniors and individuals with disabilities would be forced to travel long distances to access essential benefits.

"The largest savings on the latest version of its list is a $1.9 billion cut at the Treasury Department. But The Times reported last week that this contract was canceled last fall, when Joseph R. Biden Jr. was president — and when DOGE did not yet exist."

The GOP in Congress actually has a plan to raise your bank fees—starting with overdraft fees.
They’re siding with big banks.
That’s on top of Trump and DOGE working to eliminate the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that fights for the middle class.

This vote was to start the process of the cuts. It WILL come back for a final vote.
There are some chances to slow or potentially stop it. Need constant pressure on GOP
Focus on GOP swing seats & key committees. Energy & Commerce is where the Medicaid fight will go down. Ways&Means for tax fight.

They love to wave the flag, but behind closed doors, they’re gutting Veterans’ jobs and livelihoods. All while calling it “efficiency.”
They aren’t supporting Veterans—they’re selling them out.
