I want to remind all cheerers that the EBT program may not be funded in November:

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

Oh man, the New York Young Republicans implicated in the Nazi groupchat scandal ran up a $23,000 tab eating filet mignon and drinking at a hotel in Syracuse -- a city with one of the highest child poverty rates *in the nation* -- and then refused to pay the bill.

SPOILER ALERT: Nope! Congressional Republicans want to block savings for more affordable health care while padding the pockets of their billionaire donors with tax giveaways. I won’t stand for it

Wondering if President Trump and Congressional Republicans have ever figured out their ‘concepts’ of a plan to improve our health care system?
