"Raúl" was picking oranges in Visalia CA. "We fill 5 bins in a 6 hours and get paid $24 per bin. This work is hard on our bodies as we need to go up and down a 16 foot ladder while carrying 60 -80 lbs of oranges. But it's year round work that feeds our families." #WeFeedYou

Trump and MAGA Republicans are once again threatening vital food aid for Wisconsinites—demanding the USDA withhold SNAP funding unless states turn over private applicant data.

But instead of standing up for our families, Tom Tiffany is backing these efforts.

Instead of providing our schools the funding and resources they need to succeed, Republicans in the legislature are pushing for school consolidation.

This means bigger class sizes, less support for individual students, and longer travel for kids and parents.

A new study tells us what we already know ➡️ working families are paying the price for tariffs, not the wealthy few.

While MAGA Republicans like Tom Tiffany hand out tax cuts to billionaires, Wisconsinites are facing skyrocketing costs due to their failing economic policies.
