This may be one of the best videos DJI has commissioned. Thank you Xiomara and @elenahung.bsky.social for being willing to share your story. The IDEA is essential for disabled kids futures . We must protect and increase its funding. #IDEA50
For 50 years, IDEA has helped disabled children get the education they need to dream big about their future. With more than $38 billion gap in IDEA funding, elected officials must protect and strengthen IDEA to ensure students continue to get the services they need. #IDEA50

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

I am a tad obsessed. I simultaneously have a thousand questions about this, and also, I already understand it completely and wholeheartedly.

Hey friends! I lost complete access to my phone. I have a working phone again now, but I lost access to some stuff permanently. If you sent me a Signal, WhatsApp, or text message in the past 3 days (Thu 11/06 to Sun 11/09), I did not receive it and I have no way of receiving it ever. Please resend?

Turns out cutting #Medicaid and SNAP, while raising healthcare costs and kidnapping people off the street is not a winning strategy

Let's ride the wave!

The lesson here is have good principles and stand on them. Stand for something that isn't power!

“Without #Medicaid, children like mine don’t get to have a life — don’t get to have quality of life, but don’t get to have a life. If she doesn’t have the support she needs, she’s not medically safe,” — @elenahung.bsky.social

Nutrition assistance is NOT corrupt. Food stamps kept my family fed when my mom had to look for work after my dad got sick with MS.

The Trump administration wants kids, seniors, and veterans to go hungry. They are REFUSING to use emergency funds to keep SNAP benefits going.
