Why does Medicaid matter? It keeps health care within reach for millions of Americans and funds the important work public service workers do.
Cutting Medicaid is reckless and we won’t stay quiet about it. Call your rep and tell them to oppose Medicaid cuts: 202-559-1165

The GOP budget bill is 1,116 pages long and filled with devastating cuts to vital programs in exchange for tax cuts that will disproportionately help the rich.
The plan is so unpopular that Republicans are taking another vote on it tomorrow at 1 AM.

They didn’t just deport him—they sent him to CECOT in El Salvador.
Agelviz came here legally through the refugee resettlement program—fully vetted. But when he landed in Houston, CBP snatched him over a tattoo: a clock and a rose.
No charges. No record. Just a suspicion.

If my daughter is out and masked men grab her, claiming they’re ICE, drag her away w/out letting her prove she’s a citizen… w/out calling me, her dad… what is she supposed to do?
