Leadership is doubling down, but GOP members are getting nervous about the budget’s extreme unpopularity.

You can call your Representative now at 202-224-3121.
Looks like tomorrow will bring votes on a Republican plan to fund tax cuts for the rich by slashing Medicaid.

So this is a great time to contact your Member of Congress.

🚨If YOU live in 1 of these REPUBLICAN districts, these are the MOST vulnerable R's whose seats will be FLIPPED next year if they vote YES to cut Medicaid.

Please CALL your representative the vote is TODAY & help SAVE MEDICAID. YOUR voice does matter and does make a DIFFERENCE. 202-224-3121.🚨

I heard my friend Dan here give a remarkable brief talk about this last month. Thankfully, he’s written it up at length to share.
In light of everything happening, I wrote about how the KKK in the 1920s felt unstoppable, about the people that fought against them anyway, and about how fascism always fails. dansinker.com/posts/202…

A conservative win for the Wisc. Supreme Court will be devastating for women, minorities, and LGBTQ+ppl, at state level and federal.

We must hold the line.

Join me in a postcard writing campaign encouraging Wisc. Dems to vote in this special election.

Hell yeah. Hold the line. This is what we need people to do.

Slow things down, don’t comply in advance so the courts have time to stop them. It’s starting to work.
Received a letter from POTUS today purporting to remove me as Commissioner and Chair of the FEC. There's a legal way to replace FEC commissioners-this isn't it. I've been so fortunate to serve the American people and stir up some good trouble along the way. That's not changing anytime soon.

It feels like no one should have to say this, and yet we are in a situation where it needs to be said, very loudly and clearly, before it’s too late to do anything about it: The United States is not a startup. If you run it like one, it will break.

Queer TV shows were canceled twice as much as other shows in 2024.

Help us make some noise and speak up against queer censorship!

Post, share, and follow #SaveQueerStories and tell streaming services our voices matter.

Please. Call your representatives.

It matters.

Thread below has the number.

Call.
The good news is that the Capitol Switchboard was LIT UP for every single representative and senator today over the pause in federal funding he signed last night. Medicaid portals across the country were shut down, and no one was getting paid.

I'm seeing a lot of DEI in the news. I'm not yet seeing any coverage that clarifies that it's DEI/DEIA that his executive order terminates.

The "A" stands for accessibility.
