AAPI voters will help decide control of the House in 2026. They are growing fastest in the very suburban districts that tip close races. Campaigns that still treat AAPI outreach as optional are making a strategic error. (Long rant incoming)

This week, we gathered changemakers and champions advancing health equity, abortion access, and LGBTQ+ rights at our Advancing Equity in 2025 and Beyond roundtable. 🌟

Beyond excited that my state decided to reject Musk’s fast cash. Congratulations to the Crawford campaign and everyone who worked for it!

imagine being the richest man in the world and pulling so many desperate, pathetic tactics for this to go your way and yet —

REDESCover is live! Here is what trended online among Latinos:

[IMMIGRATION] Latino influencers are divided on deportations — far-right voices are framing deportees as criminals. Left-leaning voices are sharing stories of wrongful detentions of those w/ legal status. 1/4 mailchi.mp/ddia/welcome...

“There is no administration in the world — beyond this one — where a blunder of these proportions happens and nobody gets fired or resigns. Not in London. Not in Moscow. Not in Tokyo. Not in Pyongyang. Nowhere.” www.politico.com/newsletters/...

Unidentified men grabbing someone off the street and putting her in a car because she wrote an op-Ed. This as flatly authoritarian as anything we’ve seen in this country in a very long time.

🧵 This #WomensHistoryMonth, we’re celebrating the incredible women leading the way at HIT! Meet our powerhouse research leaders:

🔹 Roshni Nedungadi @roshni-nedungadi.bsky.social- Chief Research Officer & Founding Partner
🔹 Ashley Aylward- Research Manager
🔹 Courtney Kronenberg- Research Manager

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.

Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.

Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

"We have to fight back. If our party isn't willing to stand up and resist, how will anyone believe that we will fight for them when we regain power? We have a new oligarchy controlling the government. This isn't the top 1%, this is the top 1/100th of the 1%!" - DNC chair @kenmartin.bsky.social

Not just young members of Congress... I don't think folks understand how MAD young voters are with the current #DemocraticParty. All they want is someone to fight for them, and instead they're being abandoned. They're poised to leave the party for good if they have not already. 🚨 big warning

Celebrating #IWD2025 and highlighting the fantastic and talented women on @hitstrat.bsky.social’s research and leadership teams. I’m so honored to be able to work with these brilliant women every day!

DDIA’s team, board, & advisory council comprise a group of multi-lingual, multi-cultural women who’ve dedicated their lives to storytelling, democracy-building & the pursuit of a healthier world for Latinos in the U.S. and LAC. Happy #IWD2025 to these incredible leaders!👇🏽👇🏽

If you understand that apartheid was an economic system first, and a brutally violent system of social segregation second, you'll understand how Elon Musk is trying to update the principles from his homeland, and bring about a neo-apartheid system in the US.

More of this energy please:

Oligarchs like Elon Musk know politics is about power.

They also know that unions build the kind of real democratic power—for all of us, not just union members—that keeps oligarchs in check.

Will we reclaim that power?
