Last year after the election, I reflected: "When we fight, we win—but sometimes the fight takes awhile."
Last night, we saw Democratic victories across our nation. I am so proud of these enthusiastic, principled, inspirational leaders who will continue to fight for our nation, ideals, and progress.

While the Trump admin. continues to jeopardize SNAP benefits, Seattle restaurants are stepping up for their communities. Our community is feeding neighbors in need. Not to mention the great work of Gov. Ferguson investing $2.2 MILLION a week to keep food banks stocked up.
With SNAP benefits uncertain, these WA restaurants will feed those in need
Seattle’s restaurant community is taking action, providing meals and more. “We’ve always said if the community shows up for us, we’re going to show up for them,” said Lenox owner Jhonny Reyes.

Virginians understood the assignment.
And, as an added bonus, @statenavigate.org is now projecting Dems with 62 seats (out of 100) in the VA House of Delegates (even more amazing when you consider that Dems had only 34 seats heading in to the 2017 elections). Wow, what a night! bluevirginia.us/2025/11/live...

This won’t affect most of us but we knew this was coming so we’ve been preparing since January.
It’s going to get rough for a lot of people that won’t have these benefits. Don’t panic. Hold the line. Our preparation lets us help others if need be.

At least 25 states plan to cut off food aid benefits in November
The pause in benefits for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program would begin in states from California to Alabama just before the busy holiday season.
