Never forget that billionaires spend billions to convince you that voting doesn't matter. Don't help them. Voting isn't the ONLY thing we can do, but it is the most powerful check on the executive. "Don't bother voting because there'll be no free elections" is oligarch propaganda.

Rep Ted Lieu says that every time ICE shows up, more Minnesotans show up.
Now 20,000 have been trained as legal observers & they're recording evidence for future administrations to prosecute.
He warns: The statute of limitations runs out in 5 years. There will be elections in 3 years. ✊🏼

The FIRST PART of this is actually a good summary of what happened.
The first paragraph is important: A lot of people do indeed seem to be under the impression that ALL of the ACA tax credits are expiring.. They aren't. They're becoming FAR LESS GENEROUS. 1/

Passaic County is 43% Hispanic. Donald Trump won it. Mikie Sherril won it by 15%.
That new Republican map in Texas? It only works for them if they keep their Hispanic numbers.
Good luck.
