We’re seeing the consequences of their reckless disregard for public health — and of the HHS Secretary’s dangerous anti-vax views.

They are putting American lives at risk.

NOAA is an absolute mess, and it’ll be worse tomorrow. Please help us. There have already been over 1,000 terminations. It’s not just layoffs—Elon Musk and his staffers are trying to completely dismantle us. Today, there were tons of firings, and more are coming tomorrow.

Medicaid provides 40% of the funding for community health centers.

Medicaid supports 2 out of 3 people in nursing homes.

Medicaid provides health care to 41 million children.

Trump and his Republican friends want to enact massive cuts to the program.

We won't let them.

Telling the true story of Indiana's history might be too woke for fascists and fascist wannabes... by acknowledging Black History Month?

Before moving in this building that IHS in 1999, the IHS had ben housed in the State Library since the 1930s.

That Trump is now calling Pres. Zelensky a “dictator” and it talked the U.S. into spending $350 billion (a lie) for a war Ukraine started (another disgusting lie) should remind you the White House occupant is mentally deranged and must be opposed at all times.

The IRS was a simple test for DOGE: was it really interested in efficiency and state capacity? If so, you support the tax enforcement, the biggest ROI in govt.
Or did it want to minimize parts of the state that bothered billionaires?

My Grandpa Burton depended on ag colleges to help advise him how to be a better farmer as far back as the 1940s. Dwight Eisenhower saw world hunger as a threat to democracy around the world, shipping excess US ag products abroad. JFK reformed it into "Food for Peace."

DOGE is ending it.

Without Medicaid, my late mother-in-law would not have had a quality life in assisted living.
Republicans want to slash Medicaid — a death sentence for thousands of Americans. Medicaid provides health care to more than 37 million kids, funding for 2/3 of seniors in nursing homes & is 40% of the revenue for community health centers. 

We must EXPAND Medicaid, not cut it.
