You may think, "I'm just one person. It doesn't matter whether I show up." This is why it matters ....
Organizing is essential. Courage is contagious. Social proof is persuasive.
People do the thing they think people like them do.

My latest is the story of how my community has rallied to protect and defend our neighbors in recent days, as ICE has targeted the Rogers Park neighborhood in Chicago. "This is not a story about a moment of victory, but a moment of being reminded of our power."

Can’t wait to refill my prescription and have them pay me. This guy clearly deserves the Nobel prize in economics.
The thing about lying about cutting prescription drug prices is that while a lot of economic policy is too complicated for the average American to understand, Americans know whether they’re paying more/less for their prescriptions when they go to the pharmacy.
Trump claims he’s cut drug prices by “1,500 percent”

@raskin.house.gov @vanhollen.senate.gov @alsobrooks.senate.gov since FDA is in MD, anything you can do?
I rarely post personal things. But I need to talk about my 4-year-old niece, Hope.
She has a rare disease. A drug called elamipretide has helped her survive.
But the FDA recently denied its approval.
Now, her health hangs in the balance.
Please share her story & urge the FDA to reconsider. 🧵

The correct way to connect the authoritarian presence in LA and the Big Beautiful Bill is that the bill gives the government the resources to do this in dozens of cities at once. So if you don't like what's happening in LA, it's coming to your town if the bill passes.

Hey fellow Members of the Tribe, if you would like to see changes in Israel, there is something you can do. Vote in the World Zionist Congress. It costs $5 to cover expenses. There are several simpatico slates, such as Reform and Hatikvah. There may be others too. Take a stand: azm.org

I would like to see this get at least as much attention as the arrest of the Wisconsin judge.

I volunteer with the TaxAide program, an IRS funded program delivered thru AARP, we help thousands of people file taxes accurately each year. Taxes are overwhelming to so many. I fear it won’t be funded next year. Tell your representatives that this matters (along with everything else). #TaxAide

Hello @raskin.house.gov I received an email from you that I appreciated. But, I have a suggestion. Instead of framing it as Democrats standing up, how about saying it was Americans doing the rallying? I think we need to create a permission structure to welcome all to stop the destruction.

Musk spending now up to $10.2 million. Fight back: WisDems.org/donate
Musk has now poured $8.3 million into buying the tie-breaking Wisconsin Supreme Court seat for Brad Schimel. That is vastly more than any other single donor—to eliminate a state-level check on his and Trump's power.

When are people going to catch on that Trump is systematically destroying the country? Tariffs, unemployment, no environmental protections, no scientific research, stopping our counter terrorism efforts against Russia. The list goes on. I am not sure what to do but 2026 will be too late.

I like this idea. What about you?
Donald Trump & Musk, and the blueprint of Project 2025 are stripping our rights under the guise of "progress." Are we going to let him dictate our future?
