NOW: We’re rallying at the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau with Sen. @warren.senate.gov, Rep. Waters, @moveon.org, @boldprogressives.org, and many more. The CFPB protects consumers from predatory practices, and we must protect the CFPB from President Musk’s attempts to kill it.

“Trump ran his campaign on lowering costs for working families. Now he and his co-president Elon Musk have tried to shut down the agency that has delivered $21 billion to hard-working families. $21 billion to people who got cheated and Trump & Musk want to just take that agency away.” - Sen. Warren

Those dystopian books we read in school are looking less like fiction and more like a blueprint.

No wonder they’re being banned—they want to keep us in the dark.

The blitz of Trump's immigration executive orders has continued, so fast and sweeping that it’s been hard to keep up, much less gauge their potential impact.

Let's break down nearly three dozen of the most consequential changes he made on Day 1 ⤵️

Let's be clear: the Medicaid portal went offline because of Donald Trump's orders.

The only reason it is back on is due to outrage from the American people.

Now, they are trying to lie about it.

Medicaid was never taken away from Americans under President Biden.
