Congratulations to the people of Chandler, AZ, who — despite a fierce lobbying campaign — defeated a massive AI data center that would have raised utility bills and drained scarce water.
Oligarchs want working Americans to foot the bill while they profit. Not gonna happen!

This is a huge win that you might have missed last week: we successfully pressured airlines to shut down their data broker, which was selling passenger data to the government without a court order. I'm going to keep at it until other industries to follow suit.
After 404 Media's months-long reporting and pressure from lawmakers, the data broker owned by the U.S.’s major airlines will now shut down a program in which it sold access to hundreds of millions of flight records to the government and let agencies track peoples’ movements without a warrant.

The Republicans are inveterate liars - they will not restore SNAP or the health care subsidies. DO NOT VOTE YES TO END THE SHUTDOWN. And to those wavering, political pressure needs to be applied to stand firm

The effect of Trump’s policies on health insurance have been revealed
A 60 year couple in Kentucky making $85,000 might pay $23,700 more
In Nevada-$18,100 more
In Minnesota-$15,500
In Maryland-$13,700
It’s absolutely unsustainable
THIS is why there is a Trump shutdown
