SCOTUS just upheld marriage equality by refusing to revisit the 2015 ruling. Millions of LGBTQ+ Americans keep their right to marry. Love still wins. ❤️🌈 Text DEFEND to 25463 #LoveWins

MAGA is building the Klan 2.0.
- Want to remove women’s right to vote
- End marriage equality
- Put troops and masked agents in our streets to racially profile and terrorize us

The 14th Amendment changed the course of American history. It guarantees #BirthrightCitizenship, equal protection & due process.

Now Trump, billionaires & extremist lawmakers want to dismantle it. We won’t stay silent.

We’re living under billionaire rule. While we fight to stay fed, housed, and healthy, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, and Stephen Schwarzman CEO are rewriting the rules to get richer.

Our new report “Trump’s Corporate Oligarchs” breaks it down. Get the receipts!

"What they didn’t understand is that I had already been arrested.

My mind, heart, and imagination had been arrested by this idea that we are much better than this and that the wealthiest country on the planet can afford to provide basic healthcare to all of its citizens." - @warnock.senate.gov

“The raids on immigrants across this country is directly tied to their attacks on Medicaid and Social Security. We have to stand up and fight back. We are not going to let our people be killed." - @jayapal.house.gov

📢 HAPPENING NOW

We’re rallying and making it clear: Healthcare Cuts Kill!

As our Co-Executive Director Analilia Mejía says: “A society that denies its people healthcare is a cruel, shameful and disgusting one.”

Momentum is rising for the #EmPIREAct!

More NY legislators are stepping up to protect our paychecks + end corporate greed.

We’re fighting back against wage theft, abusive bosses, & the billion-dollar crisis hurting working families.

👀 This is what leadership looks like.

Workers or billionaires?

These champions have chosen to side with workers by supporting the EmPIRE Act!

Now we need to get EmPIRE passed this session and stop wage theft from harming our communities. Hit the link.

In the name of worker justice, we hit Albany with heart, power, and a photo booth!

Wage theft is a billion-dollar crisis in New York, and we're done being silent about it. The #EmPIREAct would give us the tools to get our stolen wages back & hold abusive employers accountable.

Ninfa worked 60 hours a week for $12/hour.
No overtime. No sick leave. No holidays.
Below minimum wage for years.

When she asked for fair pay, her boss said no.
When she finally quit, he refused to pay her what he owed.

This is wage theft!

Who's illegal?

This dope poem from The Miserable Genius from @maketheroadny.bsky.social, winner of We The Poets, is exactly what you need to ground yourself today as the Supreme Court hears a case on Birthright citizenship.

No one is illegal on stolen land.

🚨 HANDS OFF THE PEOPLE'S MONEY! 🚨

Elon Musk now has access to $6 trillion in Treasury payments—SNAP, Medicaid,Medicare, unemployment, tax refunds. No unelected billionaire should have the power to control the resources people rely on to survive.

This is an unconstitutional & immoral power grab.
