Blue stuck in MO. Too old for this garbage but still willing to fight for everyone and the future everyone's to come.

Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, let’s steal some of their policies.

In Denmark:

- Health care and college are free.  

- The starting wage is $22/hr.

- Paid parental leave is 1 year.

- Paid vacation is 6 weeks.  

- All workers get pensions.

This is good news but don't trust the polls, people. Get out and vote like your SS check and your Medicaid depend on it. Because it does.

Come on Florida, you owe us one...or 10 lol.

Pick up those phones and wear them out. Flood the offices with calls.
Not getting much attention, but the Senate GOP is about to start voting - to make sure banks can charge higher overdraft fees. Seriously.

Good time to let your Senators know what you think of that.

Just like dismantling, the Department of Education will hurt rural schools the most, these Social Security requirements will hurt rural seniors the most.

Why are they doing this? To empty out rural spaces and replace small towns with corporate farms and allow them pollute with impunity.

I love this video so much. Dis-ability is less about our physical differences &more about the ways we incorporate inclusive design, structural&behavioral, to allow different-abilities to function &thrive together.

I believe ASL (or your country’s SL) should be a required language class in school.

We are calling for rural and working class Democrats to do the work in our own communities. These are our folks, and with help, we should be doing the work of calling them in.

We aren’t asking for sympathy. We are asking for solidarity and resources.

Donald Trump’s cuts to Medicaid will blow a massive hole in our state budget and leave thousands without care.

There’s a storm coming from Washington. Republicans and Democrats should work together to protect our state from Trump.

Defend our people, not the President.

Worth a listen to what Al Green says after he was removed from the chamber.
Thank you, Rep. Al Green!

URGENT: The House is set to vote tomorrow on whether to advance $880 billion in cuts to Medicaid — eviscerating essential programs that provide lifesaving services for people with disabilities, children, seniors, and more.

Tell your representative now: Don't cut Medicaid.
Congress: Save Medicaid Now
Politicians are attempting to pass devastating cuts to Medicaid right now and we must act fast. Send a message telling your member of Congress to fight back now.
